Great Workbook for children with OCD This workbook uses Cognitive Behavior Therapy and helps give children tools for fighting OCD. My daughter is 9 and found this book to be very helpful. It helped her to understand what OCD is and how to find ways to lessen its power over her mind. I definitely recommend this book.
OCD informative this book was great for my little girl..she was diagnosed with OCD and coming to terms with it..she needed to know she was not "weird" and that others like herself deal with OCD every single day to some degree I highly recommend this book !
Life-changing book I read this book with my nine-year-old child in one afternoon. We saw immediate results. Her OCD symptoms were relatively mild to moderate, but we saw a dramatic decrease in OCDs immediately. It was as if the book gave her permission to take control of a situation that she felt was out of her control. She was instantly transformed back into our happy, cheerful and talkative child. She no longer sits in social settings repeating words in her head and missing the life going on around her. I HIGHLY recommend this book. I wish our physician had given it to us two years ago. It is a condensed version of books written for adults and parents. I even recommend it for adults struggling with anxiety and OCD.
This book changed my son's life for the better My 9 year old son worked through this book with his OCD therapist, and it had an immediate, positive impact on his understanding of his disorder. It gave him the tools he needed to fight back against his intrusive thoughts and anxiety. He continues to rely on this book when things "flare up" occasionally. I'm so thankful that he has this book to help remind him what is really happening in his head when his OCD bothers him, and what he can do to help get it under control.
Easy to read and offers great ideas I thought this was a great book for kids and teens with OCD. I am a therapist and I will recommend it to all my clients with OCD.
