How to bring up wanting OCD treatment?

I don’t know how to bring up that I want OCD treatment I have severe anxiety in general and I’ve been seeing therapists for that for years but I want to start seeing a specialist for my OCD. My parents would be the ones helping me pay/find someone so I need to bring it up to them but I don’t know how. My mom has depression and anxiety and is well versed in that realm of mental illness stuff, but not with OCD. She’s not experienced with it so she always chalks up my symptoms to other things, even since I’ve been diagnosed, so it’s making me even more nervous about bringing it up. If y’all have any suggestions, I’d love to hear them
