Wondering if people have encountered this in FTL adults and if it has modified how you've worked with the parents around this. Also, if anyone has recommendations on reading material or the research on demand avoidance, it would be great to hear!

Good morning!

My name is Alyssa Hertz and I'm reaching out from Houston Anxiety & Wellness Center to share information about our upcoming SPACE (Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions) therapy group, which may benefit families you work with who have children struggling with anxiety.

SPACE is an evidence-based parent training program that helps children manage anxiety through parent-focused intervention. We find this approach particularly effective for students whose anxiety impacts school attendance, social participation, or academic performance, as it doesn't require the child's direct participation in therapy.

Our next 6-week, virtual group begins on April 2, 2025  

Program Highlights:

• Weekly, virtual sessions on Wednesdays April 2 - May 7, 2025 12:00-1:30 CT

Hello, I have completed SPACE training, but I'm curious if there are any trainings scheduled that are specific to FTL? I am looking for any training possible for this area, as we would like to start a group. Thank you!

I am wondering if anyone has experiencing in applying the SPACE constructs to the school setting. If so any suggestions? is there any data showing that it is as effective as in the home environment?

Thanks!
