Child or Adolescent Issues

Dr. Fernando Castrillon

Psychologist, Psy.D.
Work with children or adolescents is significantly different than therapeutic work with adults. My extensive training and experience with children and teenagers allow me to work effectively and with care, staying attuned to the singularities of each child's world and subjectivity.

San Francisco, California therapist: Stephen B. Lewis Hypnotherapy, hypnotherapist
Child or Adolescent Issues

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!

Navigating adolescence can be a challenging journey filled with unique pressures and changes. Whether it's dealing with academic stress, social dynamics, self-identity, or mental health concerns, I’m here to support teens in finding their voice and developing resilience. In our sessions, we’ll create a safe and confidential space for open dialogue, allowing teens to express their thoughts and feelings without judgment. Using a combination of therapeutic approaches, including mindfulness and person-centered techniques, I help adolescents build coping skills, enhance self-esteem, and foster healthier relationships.

San Diego, California therapist: Suzanne Greene, marriage and family therapist
Child or Adolescent Issues

Suzanne Greene

Marriage and Family Therapist, JD, MA, LMFT, CCTP, CAGCS
Today it may be more complicated than ever to be a pre-teen or teen. Teens face academic, family, and social pressures from friends, parents, teachers, social media, and sometimes even themselves. With so much going on, it is not uncommon for teens to show signs of anxiety, depression, academic changes, irritability, isolation, low self-esteem, reckless behavior, and sadness. Sometimes teens just need someone to talk to, that isn’t a family member, about difficult topics or emotions they are experiencing. It’s not that they don’t trust their family, but many times teens need a private, non-judgmental space of their own to gain insight and help.I have extensive experience working with teens, even those resistant to therapy. Additionally, I specialize working with teens managing high academic and athletic achievement, those with careers in the performing arts, and university planning to prepare them for their futures. My approach is comfortable and conversational where teens can safely explore their thoughts and feelings about a wide variety of topics. Through therapy teens learn to manage their emotions, become motivated toward goals, and grow into healthy young adults.

San Francisco, California therapist: Tandra Froehlich Childress, marriage and family therapist
Child or Adolescent Issues

Tandra Froehlich Childress

Marriage and Family Therapist, ATR, LMFT
I have worked with children and teens in multiple settings (mother, mentor, therapist). I am in awe of what strong young adults our youth are developing into. In these positions, I have noticed the many challenges they face. The teen and preteen years are confusing. Youth must figure out who they are, where they belong, and what they want to be. In addition to this feat, youth are challenged with a competitive academic environment and the constant watchful eye of social media. This can create intense stress and feelings that nobody is real. It is no wonder then, that anxiety and depression are increasing. As a therapist, I aide youth in discovering their passions, increasing self-esteem, calming anxieties, and finding their unique voice. Modern day society weighs heavy on our youth. With an understanding heart and open mind it is my passion to help carry that weight.

Child or Adolescent Issues

Nicole Bermensolo

Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., AMFT
If being a parent in 2022 is difficult, being a kid in 2022 is near impossible. I am passionate about working with children and adolescents in close collaboration with parents/care-givers to assist in a myriad of issues, including anxiety, depression, school avoidance, bullying, self-esteem, divorce, co-parenting, and trauma. I utilize a unique combination of interactive play therapy, relational therapy, and EMDR (if appropriate) in order to give your child the most effective therapy experience.
