Are you struggling to help your child manage anxiety? This group is for parents who feel helpless watching their child or teen stuck in an anxiety spiral. For parents with children or teens who:
- have somatic symptoms like headaches and stomach aches
- rely on parents for reassurance more often than needed
- need parents to help them manage their anxiety by changing plans or expectations
- repeatedly ask for assistance with tasks they may be capable of doing on their own
- display intense reactions when gently challenged
This group is for you, even if your child is resistant to individual therapy, or is displaying intense aggressive or destructive behaviours at home.
Learn practical and concrete ways to help your child cope, create a supportive and encouraging environment, and shift your response to their anxiety so that their behaviours can shift too.
SPACE treatment has been shown to…
- improve coping for the child
- improve child’s ability to self-regulate
- improve the parent-child relationships
- improve stress & anxiety levels in parents and kids
Shown to be as effective as CBT , but does not rely on the child to participate.
