Guest guest Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 Just reading re the center in Northbrook, at the OCD Chicago website, the owner is listed on their Advisory Board - so sounds good! http://www.ocdchicago.org/index.php/about/who-we-are/ Hope it works out well. Did your son's OCD recently start? My son's began at the start of 6th grade, a few little quirks before that. >  > We already spoke with a Psychiatrist (Dr Kaplan, MD, Psychiatry) and he recommends “The Anxiety and Agoraphobia Treatment Center of Northbrook, IL.†I want to find out if anyone has worked with them or if someone can give me some suggestions. Any feed back would be greatly appreciated. > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 My son has been showing classic signs for about 2-years, but we didn't contribute them to OCD. We met with a couple of doctors, but none of them picked up on the OCD. My wife went over some of his symptoms with the school Social Worker and she suggested he might have OCD. We spoke with a Psychiatrist and he confirmed her theory. I've been getting some good responses about AATC. Parents are stating their counselors are extremely knowledgeable. We're going to do a little more research, but we're leaning towards AATC.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 Not sure how far you want travel, but I believe the Center for Anxiety Disorders associated with 's Memorial in Wisconsin has an office in the Kenosha area just over the IL border - probably 45mins or less from where you are I would guess. You would likely need to get referral from 's but they are one of the best with OCD CBT/ERP. > > My 13-year old son has OCD.  My wife and I want to try CBT before medication. I’m looking for recommendations on Doctors near Vernon Hills, IL. >  > We already spoke with a Psychiatrist (Dr Kaplan, MD, Psychiatry) and he recommends “The Anxiety and Agoraphobia Treatment Center of Northbrook, IL.†I want to find out if anyone has worked with them or if someone can give me some suggestions. Any feed back would be greatly appreciated. > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
