Editorial Review: Product Description: What To Do When Your Brain Gets Stuck guides children and their parents through the cognitive-behavioral techniques used to treat Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Revealing OCD in a whole new light, this interactive self-help book turns kids into super-sleuths who can recognize OCD's tricks. Engaging examples, activities, and step-by-step instructions help children master the skills needed to break free from the sticky thoughts and urges of OCD, and live happier lives. This is the complete resource for educating, motivating, and empowering children to work toward change. Included in the book is an extensive Introduction to Parents and Caregivers. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Strongly Recommend this Book for your OCD childI bought this and two other books in the series for my 13yo daughter who has Aspergers and OCD... and diabetes... and Celiac Disease. Because of her various issues, my daughter has developed a fear of germs and gluten. It is extreme. (The reality is that gluten can only harm her if she puts it in her mouth or inhales it, like if she were around poofing floor.)

Rating: - Even better for younger kids This is a very good book. It does clearly explain to young children what the experience of OCD is and describes in general terms what to do about the problem.

Also, some sensitive kids, as most OCD kids are, might not like thinking that their brain is "stuck" (something is wrong with them). This book is a little cook ... Read More Rating: - Great Tool for PsychoeducationAs a child psychologist, I have found this to be a very useful workbook. The chapters are relatively brief and help children learn about their symptoms of OCD through active engagement with stories, metaphors, pictures and fun activities. The author presents the material in a positive, non-threatening way and the messages about how to manage symptoms of anxiety are very hopeful. I highly recommend it!
