From Anxious Mornings to Independence: Shayna Stuempfig on Parenting with Purpose
Brighter Together
What if your morning drop-off didn’t feel like a panic attack in slow motion?
In this hope-filled episode, Shayna Stuempfig, LCSW and Berkeley-based therapist, walks us through the SPACE model—a parent-led approach to reducing childhood anxiety without forcing kids into therapy.
She shares how schools and caregivers can work together to reduce accommodations that feed anxiety, and instead use love, boundaries, and structure to build resilience.
Shayna doesn’t just offer therapy—she offers tools. And for every parent navigating tough goodbyes, she reminds us: you don’t have to wait for your child to be ready to get help.
