The rehab I went to was really good. I went to Avery's House. It was welcoming, accepting, and they really do care about us. It was literally a house so it didn't feel like a hospital or treatment center at all. 
As many as 1 in 200 children and teens will experience OCD in their lifetime
Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is a stressful cycle of obsessions, anxiety and compulsions (or rituals) that can disrupt every area of a teen’s life. The more rituals are practiced, the stronger OCD gets. The good news is that it’s treatable, and Avery’s House can help.

- Rewriting, redoing & rereading things like homework
- Counting and recounting things
- Constant worry that something bad is going to happen
- Slow to leave the house due to routine
- Handwashing to the point of damaged or bleeding skin
- Hoarding objects
- Need for order, symmetry, or prevision

What causes OCD?
Like other mental health disorders, there is no definitive cause of OCD. A person can develop compulsive behaviors to cope with the anxiety & stress of obsessions. Risk factors that may increase your child’s risk of developing OCD include:
- Genetics
- Stressful or traumatic event
- Learned fears and behaviors from a family member
- Age and gender
