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!

Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT, Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
When working with Adolescent clients, I prioritize creating a nurturing and nonjudgmental space where young individuals feel heard and understood. Using age-appropriate techniques such as play therapy, art therapy, and cognitive-behavioral interventions, I help children and adolescents explore their emotions, develop coping skills, and build resilience. By fostering a trusting therapeutic relationship, I aim to empower young clients to navigate challenges, express themselves authentically, and thrive in various aspects of their lives.

Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Child rearing is a difficult time and children/teens often cannot open up to their parents. Therapy is a safe place for adolescents to get appropriate and safe guidance. Play therapy is also very useful for younger children in helping them identify emotions and mimic good behavior.
