S.P.A.C.E

Supportive parenting for anxious childhood emotions (SPACE) is a novel parent-based treatment aimed at reducing parental accommodation of the child’s and adolescent’s anxiety or OCD symptoms and increasing supportive parental responses.

SPACE focuses on modifying the parental approach to the child’s anxiety symptoms and includes tools for helping parents cope with the children’s externalizing or otherwise difficult behaviours that occur during treatment

SPACE treatment is appropriate for many of the most common anxiety issues that children and adolescents face:


  • Separation anxiety

  • Social anxiety

  • Generalized anxiety

  • Specific phobias

  • Illness and health anxiety

  • Selective mutism

  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
