Description:

We offer our six week group several times throughout the year. Contact our team to learn about the group and our next start date. The group is open to caregivers of children with OCD and/or anxiety. SPACE is an innovative treatment model that works to reduce symptoms of childhood OCD and anxiety through modifying the caregiver’s role. In the group, caregivers are taught about the signs of childhood anxiety and OCD, how the problems differ from adult anxiety, what it means to take a supportive stance, and how to develop a plan to reduce the symptoms without convincing the child to participate at all. Parents will also have the opportunity to provide guidance to each other. NOTE: This group is designed to reduce childhood OCD and anxiety and uses caregivers as the change agents.
