Educational Workshop

Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions (SPACE)

The SPACE program is an evidence-based treatment designed specifically for children and adolescents struggling with anxiety, OCD, and related challenges. What sets SPACE apart from other therapies is that it works exclusively with parents and guardians to support the child’s emotional growth. While your child is the focus, you are the key to helping them navigate their anxiety.

This educational workshop is based on the principles and approach of the SPACE intervention, and includes four live sessions where you will:

  • Learn about childhood anxiety and its impact on your child's daily life.

  • Understand parental accommodation and how certain parenting behaviors may inadvertently reinforce anxious or compulsive behaviors.

  • Develop actionable skills to support your child’s symptoms of anxiety or OCD in effective, evidence-based ways.

  • Connect with other parents facing similar challenges, and gain valuable insights from shared experiences.

Additional Benefits:

  • Expert guidance: Receive feedback from two licensed psychologists with over 10 years of experience working with children and families, and specialized training in the SPACE intervention.

  • Educational resources: Access brief videos and at-home exercises to reinforce and expand your learning.

  • Ongoing support: Opportunities for further consultation and assistance connecting with other care options as needed.

If you are looking to better understand your child’s struggles with anxiety or OCD and develop practical tools to help, this workshop can provide the education and support you need.
