Understanding & Managing Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) in Children & Young People

Overview

Does your child or young person struggle with intrusive thoughts, worries, rituals, reassurance-seeking, or behaviours that may be linked to obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)?

This Workshop will be delivered by Dr Emily Nobes, Clinical Psychologist, BABCP-Accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist, and Clinic Director at Repose Psychology.

Emily specialises in OCD and anxiety disorders, having worked in NHS and private mental health services for many years. She has extensive experience working with neurodivergent children. She is passionate about helping families better understand their child’s experiences and feel confident supporting them using practical, evidence-based strategies.

We are very grateful to The National Lottery Community Fund for supporting this workshop.
