    PSP 316: How to Parent While Struggling with Chronic Pain

    PSP 316: How to Parent While Struggling with Chronic Pain

    Raising kids with anxiety or OCD is hard enough. But when you add chronic pain to your daily routine it can push you over the edge. Often we backburner our own issues. We tell ourselves that we don’t have time for our struggles. That we don’t have time to address our needs. We push through and do more damage in the end.
    But the truth is if you don’t take care of yourself, you won’t be able to effectively take care of your child. Helping a child with anxiety or OCD is exhausting and chronic pain will only add to that fatigue.
    In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I talk to Dr. Andrea Durand, my go-to expert on all things pain related. She explores our relationship with chronic pain and discusses ways we can address the pain to minimize its impact on our daily lives.

    PSP 315: Turning OCD Pain into Passion | Shaun Flores

    PSP 315: Turning OCD Pain into Passion | Shaun Flores

    Shaun Flores had been suffering from OCD for years without knowing it. He hopped from OCD theme to OCD theme, listening to OCD’s lies and searching for certainty with each new worry. 
    It wasn’t until 2022, when he finally met the right therapist, that he learned that all of his fears had one explanation, OCD.
    Shaun has turned his OCD pain into a passion to advocate. Since his diagnosis he has added a new face to the OCD advocacy scene. A face that was desperately underrepresented. As a black man, he is helping normalize a disorder that doesn’t care about race, ethnicity or gender. 
    In this week’s episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast, I had the honor to talk to Shaun about his journey with OCD and the incredible work he is doing to help others.

    PSP 314: How to Help Kids Who Won’t Use Coping Skills

    PSP 314: How to Help Kids Who Won’t Use Coping Skills

    We all want our kids with anxiety or OCD to use coping skills to deal with anxiety, overwhelm and dysregulation. But what happens when they refuse to use them?
    In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I talked to my go-to expert on coping skills, best selling author and therapist, Janine Halloran. In this episode Janine and I discuss why some kids refuse to use coping skills and what approaches to use in order to help them embrace these tools.
    Janine has just opened up a new community hub to provide parents, therapists and counselors with in-depth support! You can learn more here.
    Also, the doors to the AT Parenting Community are open now until May 18th, 2023. Click here to learn more.

    PSP 312: How Imaginal Scripts are Used in OCD Treatment

    PSP 312: How Imaginal Scripts are Used in OCD Treatment

    When we are raising kids with OCD it is important that we fully understand the therapeutic approaches our kids are being taught in therapy. Ultimately we will want our kids to be able to utilize those tools throughout their life.
    The use of imaginal scripts can be an effective tool in their OCD toolbox. In this episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast I explore what imaginal scripts are, how to write an effective one and the most common pitfalls that make them less effective.

Gratitude!

Natasha-
Thank you for all the time and effort you put into these podcasts, you tube videos and classes! Your work has helped my family better understand OCD. My daughter related to other children in the online Crushing OCD course for kids, and that gave her hope and relief that she’s not alone. Your podcasts help me in so many ways, wether to give guidance on how to pull back accommodations, or providing empathy on this journey! I’m so glad to have these resources! You’ve been a true blessing!

The absolute BEST resource out there

I just listened to the episode with Stephanie Krause, the author of Whole Life, Whole Child. Natasha’s podcast, website, and courses have been the most helpful resource in the world of helping my children with anxiety and OCD and now I look forward to reading Stephanie’s book. It’s especially helpful since I live in a community with limited resources for this population. I have a similar background to Natasha and Stephanie as a trained mental health counselor/art therapist and have always focused my work on children. Now that I find myself raising children with anxiety and OCD, I haven’t been able to continue working. It’s so helpful to hear Natasha and Stephanie’s professional experiences as well as their personal experiences being mothers to children that struggle as well. Thank you SO MUCH to you both for what you do to help this community out. I hope someday that I will also feel able to give back to the community in a professional manner as well!

So helpful!

About 9 months ago we started noticing behavior changes in our 9 year old. A friend mentioned OCD habits, so we started really paying attention to him and saw some slight compulsions. I wanted to learn more about OCD and how to help him. So while researching I came across this Podcast. In the last month I’ve listened to numerous podcasts and it’s been incredibly helpful! We’ve already made so much progress with him. Today, for the first time we were able to meet with a specialist in our area. He was thankful that we were able to clearly communicate exactly what we see in our son and how we’ve been doing ERP at home. We are so very thankful for all of the knowledge and information Natasha is sharing. And I have already shared this podcast with friends with children who are wondering about anxiety and OCD. Definitely worth listening to!
