About Us: Therapy for Children Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
Our Journey
Founded in 2017, Therapy for Children Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (TCCOD) was born out of a passion to provide reliable and unbiased information about OCD in children. Our journey began with the recognition of an important gap in online resources that offered accurate, age-appropriate insights into this complex mental health issue.
Mission and Purpose
Our mission is to empower parents, caregivers, and educators by offering a comprehensive digital hub dedicated to understanding and supporting children with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). We aim to bridge the information divide by providing evidence-based knowledge, practical strategies, and engaging content tailored for young minds.
Core Values:
