SPACE Parent Training for Anxious Children
“Anxiety is a natural part of life, but how we respond to it can shape our children’s ability to manage it.”
– Eli Lebowitz (founder of SPACE)
Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions
So, You’ve Got an Anxious Kid
You’ve probably seen it—the fears, the worries, the need to avoid certain situations. Whether they’re refusing school, throwing tantrums, or clinging to you at the most inconvenient times, it’s tough. You might feel like you’re constantly walking on eggshells, hoping for long-term relief.
Anxiety can dominate a child’s life—and yours, too. But what if you could change how this plays out? Without the constant power struggles?
That’s where the SPACE program comes in. This isn’t a quick-fix solution—it’s about shifting the way you respond to anxiety. It’s not about erasing fear, but teaching your child to face it and manage it in their own way.
Anything I Try Never Works for Very Long
The Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions (SPACE) program gives you a deeper understanding of how to shift the dynamic between you and your anxious child.
We help you avoid unintentionally making things worse (we’ve all been there) and give you practical tools to show up differently as a parent. It’s a game-changer for parents who are tired of walking on eggshells around their child’s fears.
SPACE Helps You Become the Guide, Not the Rescuer
You’ll learn how to help your child face anxiety—not avoid it. These strategies work over time, and as you start using them, you’ll notice how they ease anxiety rather than feed it.
