Helping you and your child break free from anxiety – together
I am Robyn Isman - your partner in navigating anxiety!
As a therapist, social worker, parent of three, and anxiety expert, I understand the unique challenges that come with raising children in today’s world. I specialize in helping kids, teens, and their families build the skills to face anxiety with confidence and resilience.
For over 10 years, I’ve worked with individuals aged 12 and up to embrace discomfort, develop a growth mindset, and thrive through life’s challenges. I also empower parents with practical tools to respond effectively to their child’s anxiety, fostering independence and emotional well-being in the process.
Anxiety isn’t dangerous, and with the right support, you and your family can build a calmer, more connected life. Let’s work together to help your child—and you—feel stronger, more capable, and less overwhelmed.

WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"This course has helped me reframe how I can respond to my child's anxiety."
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"I learned a lot of languages I can use in the moment when my child's anxiety is overtaking a situation. My response has helped dissipate situations instead of increasing anxiety.
I think this course has given me a great toolset that I have to continually use to be able to decrease my child's anxious symptoms over time."
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"After working with Robyn, my child accepted my boundary much more readily than I expected and seemed to move on from the anxious feeling/perseverating more quickly than she has in the past."
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"I now understand the role that parents play in anxiety and in enabling the anxious child's continued behavior."
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"After working with Robyn, I am now able to accept that both parents and children will need to experience the short-term discomfort of anxiety and the behavior it triggers to help my child build up to more confidence and independence in the long term."
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"We have more tools to support our kids, reaffirming that it’s not personal and they are not in control."
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"Robyn helped us to have hope during a time that seemed hopeless. Her expertise allowed us to understand our child's anxieties better and gave us tools to navigate the ever-changing journey of parenting."
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"Since using SPACE my child has been able to get ready for bed, get himself into bed, and say goodnight to me in a calm manner. He has also been able to be in his room on his own doing his homework as well as take a shower on his own without needing me to be with him in the same room!"
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"I can recognize my nervous system responding to his nervous system. I can recognize that I want to use my go to accommodations but I try to stop myself. Using supportive statements has become easier/fluid and can recognize opportunities to use them more often."
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"My child is able to do the things he doesn't like with less anxiety and I can see he is more relaxed about it. He knows even if it's hard for him he can get through it. The more he does it the easier it gets."
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"You taught me how to clarify what to say and what to target and how to change my accommodations, that made me understand and see the benefits of how this works."
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"It's the best and most helpful class on anxiety I've ever been to."
