My daughter is 7 and was diagnosed with OCD in Aug. This book is fantastic!!! It is full of great tools to fight OCD. The book is interactive and kid friendly.

The therapist mainly supported what we did in the work book, and helped reinforce the techniques and information we learned. ... Read More
