OCD in Kids vs. Adults: What to Know and How to Get Help

I’m thrilled to share this guest post from Alexandra Bennett, LCSW, a therapist I deeply respect for her expertise in treating OCD and anxiety in children and adolescents. In addition to her private practice, Alexandra also works in a school setting supporting students with learning differences, giving her a unique perspective on the challenges children and families face.

In this post, she shares valuable insights into how OCD can look different in children and adults, what to watch for, and how evidence-based treatment can help break the cycle. Whether you are a parent, a professional, or simply curious about OCD, her expertise brings clarity and compassion to a complex topic.
