S. Abigail McCarrel : Welcome Home Family Therapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, DCSW
I have been working with children and adolescents for over thirty years. In that time, I have evolved in my practice to work only with children and young adolescents in the context of family therapy. Since I am a family therapist, I see the family as a system with the parents at the top of the hierarchy. They are the leaders and the ones with the power and authority in the family. So, to help the complex and challenging kiddos in my practice, I provide a combination of parent and family therapy. I work intensely with parents to understand their children and see beyond the behaviors. As the parents begin to change, so does the child and the family as a whole.

Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychoanalyst
Creating a safe and engaging space for children is my passion! I specialize in working with kids of all ages, using a combination of play therapy and psychoanalytic techniques tailored to their unique needs.
Play therapy allows children to express themselves freely through toys, games, and creative activities. This playful approach helps us uncover and address underlying emotional concerns in a way that feels comfortable and natural for them.
My training in psychoanalytic work with children allows me to gently explore the unconscious world that shapes their behaviors and emotions. Together, we can create a space where they feel heard and understood, fostering healthy development and emotional well-being.

Stephen B. Lewis Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Having two teenagers of my own I understand all too well the trials and tribulations of being a child in today's world. I've worked with children as young as 8 to help them resolve fears and habits that have caused them great distress. I've also worked with teenagers to help them overcome unwanted habits, issues around self-esteem, as well as social and academic problems that have been holding them back.
Children and teens are often intrigued by the idea of using hypnosis to solve their problems, and any stigma they may feel about going for "therapy" is usually not present for hypnosis. I enjoy working with children and teenagers as they typically go into trance states very easily and have better access to their imaginations than most adults. My sessions with kids, as with adults, are usually relaxing, often fun, and sometimes even entertaining!
