A promising new evidence-based treatment for individuals with ARFID and picky eaters!
Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) is a complex eating disorder characterized by an individual’s persistent failure to meet appropriate nutritional and energy needs. Treating ARFID is challenging, especially in children and adolescents. One promising approach is the Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions (SPACE) program.
What is SPACE?
-
SPACE is a parent-based intervention that focuses on changing parental behaviors rather than directly treating the
child. -
Your child does not need to be motivated to attend therapy or be interested in changing. It is ideal for families that have tried feeding therapy without
success. -
SPACE helps parents and caregivers learn to support their child's capacity to handle anxiety independently and reduce
accommodating behaviors that have been
reinforcing avoidance.
