Pediatric obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is a common condition
that can take a substantial toll on the entire family system.
Research suggests that families of youth with OCD face a unique set
of difficulties in that they often are intimately involved in the
child's symptoms. This involvement, also known as symptom
accommodation, can be quite taxing, and it is often accompanied by
high levels of distress, anxiety, and family conflict. These family
responses, while natural and understandable, pose very real
problems for treatment. Growing research suggests that poor family
functioning undermines successful child OCD treatment. Helping
Families Manage Childhood OCD provides clinicians with a
comprehensive set of strategies for identifying and intervening
with family dynamics that are likely to interfere with successful
treatment of pediatric OCD. Moving beyond commonly employed
techniques such as parent education and behavior management
training, this manual includes skills training in emotion
regulation for the entire family. It offers step-by-step strategies
for helping family members to identify and manage their own
emotional responses to OCD and provides a foundation for more
effective and collaborative problem-solving around OCD. Through
interactive exercises, families develop strategies for
communicating around and troubleshooting difficult OCD episodes as
well as strategies for promoting a more positive home environment
in which to work on OCD.
