This chapter describes the second session of treatment, during which families begin to work on recognizing and managing their emotional responses to OCD. The therapist provides psychoeducation about the range of emotional responses to childhood OCD, including feelings of frustration, manipulation, resentment, and disappointment, and begins to process and normalize the family’s experiences. Emotion monitoring is introduced as a prerequisite skill for managing challenging feelings, and families practice using a thermometer rating system to track their emotions that is based on the use of the feelings thermometer. Initial strategies for responding to difficult emotions are also presented, including self-soothing exercises and initial practice with disengaging from highly charged situations. The chapter concludes with a description of informing the OCD child about how his parents will respond to him at home.
