Dr. Fernando Castrillon

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.

Allie Kaelin
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, APCC
Working with teens in therapy is incredibly rewarding because it involves navigating a dynamic and transformative period in their lives. Adolescence is a time of significant emotional, social, and cognitive development, and teens often face challenges such as identity formation, peer pressure, academic stress, and emerging independence. I work to create a space where they can explore these pressures in a way that is non-judgmental and validating.

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. Together, we’ll work towards empowering them to navigate this pivotal stage of life with confidence and clarity.
