  • New to this diagnosis, this information is so valuable!

    My daughter has been under evaluation for OCD/anxiety, and I had difficulty believing she could possibly have OCD thanks to the pop culture portrayal. Natasha is one of the resources that has helped me understand quite a bit more, and now that I do I can absolutely see how the diagnosis fits my child. I don’t listen to podcasts regularly, but this is one I know will be a valuable resource!

  • Rare gem of a resource for parents!

    Natasha, thank you for providing a lifeline for parents raising children with OCD! My daughter was diagnosed in October — you are one of the few experts I have found who provides helpful and understandable answers to such a complex disorder. My daughter developed a panic disorder in 6th grade and became severely school avoidant the beginning of 8th grade. In the last 4 years, we have seen 4 psychiatrists, 5 counselors, had 2 neuropsychological exams, tried an IOP, a residential program, almost h... more

  • Wow

    Absolutely love this podcast. I only found Natasha recently, but am so grateful I did. I wasn’t even looking, but somehow scrolling on Instagram one day I saw her profile and watched .. it was like a missing puzzle piece being found! It’s like listening to a friend who understands the struggles, is going through the struggles but knows how to help you. Natasha, thank you so much for what you do. I don’t feel the despair and sadness like I did but now have hope. I cannot thank you enough ❤️

  • Relief, grief, Gratitude

    I cried. I cried with relief, grief and gratitude listening to this.

    The relief: knowing we aren’t alone. Have somewhere to look. Having a community. We are just at the beginning of supporting my 8 y/o with his OCD and i’m learning so much and feeling so hopeful about steps forward.

    The grief: not only am I learning about his OCD but also my own. Something I fumbled my way through alone as a child, teen and adult. The immense shame I held for such a long time is still being brought to light ... more
