    PSP 404: How Your Childhood Impacts How You Handle Your Child’s Anxiety or OCD

    We don’t just leave our childhood in the past. It comes with us, altering our lens of how we view life. This includes how we view and interact with our child’s anxiety or OCD. When we learn to identify the “smudges” our childhood is adding to our lens, we are better able to separate out our issues from our child’s issues, becoming more present and intentional in the moment. In this episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast, I will help you explore the 5 main categories where our childhood impacts how we parent our kids with anxiety or OCD, as well as what to do about it! ⚓️ Want some free in-depth support on this topic? We are talking all about this in my brand new FREE series, How to Be an Effective Anchor for Your Child with Anxiety or OCD.

    PSP: 402: Knowing When to Step Back: Supporting Your Child with OCD or Anxiety Without Overpushing

    Trying to help a child with OCD or anxiety is not an easy task. One reason for that is because we are not steering the ship. This is not our battle. This is not our struggle. Although trust me, I know we have our own struggles on this journey raising a child with OCD or anxiety. But, we don’t get to override our child’s autonomy to smooth things out. I wish we could. The single hardest part about raising children with OCD or anxiety is we have to follow their pace. We have to follow their level of engagement. If we overstep, over push or over cheerlead, we risk shutting them down. In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I talk about how to know when to step back and how to support your child while their foot is firmly on the brake. 🌸 Learn how to be an effective anchor for your child with anxiety or OCD.

    PSP 401: Are We Inadvertently Contributing to Our Child’s Helplessness?

    We all want our kids with anxiety or OCD to believe in themselves. We want them to try hard things. We want them to push through their fears. But we only have so much control on how motivated they are to do those things to help themselves. We do, however, have control over how we show up to our child’s battle with anxiety or OCD.  When we over accommodate, over enable and cocoon our kids from all discomfort and failure, we rob them of the opportunity to develop resilience. It is a balancing act and it looks different for each child. In this week’s episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast I talk about how to find the sweet spot of empowering our kids to face their anxiety or OCD, while not pushing them over the edge. 💪 Want more support?

    PSP: 400: The Difference Between Reframing Anxiety Thoughts vs OCD Thoughts

    How we reframe anxious thoughts vs OCD thoughts are vastly different. Understanding the nuances of how we talk to these two disorders differently is crucial for any parent trying to help their child. In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I explore the differences between anxiety and OCD and how we would coach our kids through anxious thoughts versus OCD thoughts. 🌸 Want in-depth support helping your child with anxiety or OCD?

    PSP: 399: Why the Core Fear Matters in Anxiety and OCD

    Does it really matter if you understand the core fear related to your child’s anxiety or OCD. The short answer - yes.  Of course we will treat anxiety with anxiety tools regardless of theme or core fear. And we will treat OCD as OCD regardless of theme or core fear. But understanding the core fear in anxiety or OCD is like the difference between using a compass to get where you are going versus a GPS.  Core fears help us identify and pinpoint exactly what fuels all the anxiety and OCD themes; what fuels all the compulsions. What fuels all the discomfort. When we know the core fear we have the upper hand against anxiety or OCD. In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I outline why it is helpful to know the core fear of our child’s anxiety or OCD and what steps to take to discover them! 🛍️ Check out my new mental health Etsy store with OCD Card Decks to build OCD skills and t-shirts, sweatshirts and bags with messages of hope: www.natashadaniels.com/shop *** This podcast episode is sponsored by NOCD.

    PSP: 398: Handling Your Child’s Anxiety, OCD and Christmas Break

    Just because it is the holiday season doesn’t mean our child’s anxiety and OCD take a break. The holidays can stir up a variety of issues for our kids depending on their particular anxiety and OCD themes.  Down time can cause more anxious or intrusive thoughts. The whirlwind of parties, overstimulation and no routine can make emotions run high. It can be tricky to deal with contamination, restrictive eating, panic attacks and upsetting thoughts around relatives and friends.  In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I’m exploring some common struggles kids with anxiety or OCD have over Christmas and winter break and what you can do to reduce these issues.  🛍️ Check out my new mental health Etsy store with OCD Card Decks to build OCD skills and t-shirts, sweatshirts *** This podcast episode is sponsored by NOCD.

    As parents we can be hard on ourselves. The parenting journey raising kids with anxiety and OCD can come with many ups and downs. Many of us blame ourselves when our child’s anxiety or OCD doesn’t get better. But the truth is you can do absolutely everything to help your child with anxiety or OCD and they still don’t improve.
