Child or Adolescent Issues
Bridges Clinical Hypnotherapy Services
Hypnotherapist
Children and young people today face many challenges such as: bullying; dealing with the "new normal" of COVID-19 restrictions; academic performance and personal success expectations; peer pressure, fears and trauma; the expectation that being happy is something that should just come automatically; adjusting to natural hierarchies that no longer exist;
personal and oral hygiene; underdeveloped emotional skills; and the unhealthy use of technology and influences of social media. Hypnosis can provide a safe and effective solution to all of these challenges.

Paighe Rojas
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Kids and teens often communicate distress through behavior, withdrawal, anxiety, anger, or school struggles. Therapy offers a safe space to build emotional language, coping skills, and self-esteem while reducing family conflict and overwhelm. When appropriate, I include caregiver support so change is supported at home—not just in session.

I help children and adolescents struggling with emotional dysregulation and behavioural issues. Using Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, we work towards building emotional regulation and distress tolerance skills. I emphasize a collaborative treatment approach focusing on the establishment of individual and/or family goals.
