Space for Anxious Kids

Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions (SPACE) is a parent-based treatment designed to help children struggling with anxiety, OCD, or related challenges. Rather than focusing directly on the child in sessions, SPACE works with parents to help them respond to anxiety in supportive and effective ways.

Parents learn how to reduce accommodations that may unintentionally reinforce anxiety while increasing supportive responses that help children build confidence and independence. The approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to the specific needs of each family.

SPACE can help children become more resilient and less controlled by anxiety while helping parents feel more empowered and confident in supporting their child through difficult situations.
