Episode PSP: 399: Why the Core Fear Matters in Anxiety and OCD
Does it really matter if you understand the core fear related to your child’s anxiety or OCD. The short answer - yes.
Of course we will treat anxiety with anxiety tools regardless of theme or core fear. And we will treat OCD as OCD regardless of theme or core fear. But understanding the core fear in anxiety or OCD is like the difference between using a compass to get where you are going versus a GPS.
Core fears help us identify and pinpoint exactly what fuels all the anxiety and OCD themes; what fuels all the compulsions. What fuels all the discomfort. When we know the core fear we have the upper hand against anxiety or OCD.
In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I outline why it is helpful to know the core fear of our child’s anxiety or OCD and what steps to take to discover them!
