Oppositional Defiance Disorder (O.D.D.)

Establish Healthy Limits, Build Your Children’s Confidence, and Bring Balance to Your Home

Bring Healthy Behavior Back to Your Family

At South Charlotte Family Counseling, PLLC we work not only with the child to practice and learn how to cope better to get needs met, we also work with their parents to provide support to better understand, manage and achieve goals and values for how they want to raise their children, while feeling good about themselves in the end. When put into an environment where they are loved, validated, given limits and reasonable choices, these children gain both the internal insight and confidence to better manage their wants and needs in a way that is respectful and acceptable.

Common Experiences of O.D.D:

  • Frequently angry and irritable in mood
  • Often lose their temper, touchy, and annoyed by others
  • Augmentative and defiant to those in authority
  • Appear to defy request, deliberately annoys others and blames others for there mistakes
  • Seemingly spiteful spirit presenting with vindictive behavior
  • Show poor habit regulation
  • Are highly active or more inattentive and impulsive
