EP 72 - Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge - Is it Anxiety or OCD?

Our kids have been going through so much over the past 18 months, and we are seeing an increase in their stress levels. Not only that - we are seeing an increase in the numbers of children struggling with anxiety and OCD.   Interestingly, Dr. Roseann says that in many instances, our children are being misdiagnosed with anxiety - where in actual fact they might be struggling with OCD.   In this episode - she explains the differences and once we know what’s going on - how parents can better support their children.   These behaviors are learned and reassuringly they can also be ‘unlearned’ with a few simple techniques.   Want to know more?
