“Standing Up to OCD for Kids is a great resource for children struggling with OCD, as well as their parents. It provides clear examples and a path to success for conquering OCD in youth. I recommend it to all of my young clients with OCD to support the work that we do in the office. It can also be used as a standalone guide for families who do not have access to well-trained clinicians. This workbook is a gem!”–Suzanne Mouton-Odum, PhD, director of Psychology Houston, PC: The Center for Cognitive Behavioral Treatment

Dr. Reuter’s new workbook for kids is the perfect aid for clinicians and parents working to help children overcome OCD. Information for parents is presented in an accessible way, while children are challenged, informed, and given the opportunity to face their fears in a developmentally appropriate way.”–Ivy Ruths, PhD, licensed psychologist and outreach chair of OCD Texas
