Supporting students with Oppositional Defiant Disorder

Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) is often misunderstood as “a child with an attitude problem.” But it’s never that simple. Behind the defiance, there’s usually something deeper happening — unmet emotional needs, parent-child tension, or even an underlying mood or anxiety disorder. That’s why effective treatment for ODD doesn’t just focus on the child’s behavior. It requires support for you, the parent. Parent therapy helps you: ✨ Understand what’s really driving your child’s defiance ✨ Regula
