Must reading for parents of children with OCD.  Clearly the work of a skilled and compassionate clinician.  Just as important, it makes interesting reading." 

Judith Rapoport, M.D.

Professor and Chief, Child Psychiatry Branch
National Institute of Mental Health

 

Reading this book is like having the opportunity to speak with a caring expert who patiently and generously shares knowledge based on scientific research and wisdom based on clinical experience.  Although there are other books on OCD, the clarity, compassion and sensitivity with which Dr. Wagner presents information make this comprehensive resource a must-read for parents, school personnel and professionals.

Review by Lori Kasmen, Psy.D.

 

Every parent of a child with OCD should read this book.  I will recommend it from now on.  It is written in a very user-friendly manner, and the suggestions, advice and information are just what parents need to know.

Dr. Wagner, the author of the best book available for children with OCD (Up and Down the Worry Hill) now offers a wonderful book for parents of those children as well as for clinicians treating them.  Her intelligence, sensitivity, humanity, experience and clinical talents shine through on every page in this valuable addition to the OCD literature.

Dr. Wagner has completed and perfected the circle of treatment of OCD in children.  Her priceless book Up and Down the Worry Hill for children with OCD certainly helped parents and clinicians too.  But this book informs adults exactly what to do and what not to do when a child has OCD.  Dr. Wagner has done it again!

John Greist, M.D.

 
Distinguished Senior Scientist, Madison Institute of Medicine    

 

A "must read," essential book for all parents who have a child with OCD.  It provides just the right balance of medical background and practical advice.  Dr. Wagner has a wealth of knowledge and experience and she generously passes on her many valuable "pearls of wisdom" to the lucky readers.

A truly remarkable guide for parents, clinicians and school personnel.  Expertly written and organized, it does an excellent job of demystifying childhood OCD and provides clear and compassionate guidelines to parents for managing the impact of OCD.
