Book Description
This therapist guide presents a family-based treatment for OCD specifically designed for children ages 5-8. Using a cognitive-behavioural approach, it provides psycho-education for the family and a set of parent strategies involving differential attention, modelling, and scaffolding techniques, and child strategies that include cognitive tools such as 'bossing back' and using a feelings thermometer to rate anxiety.
