Child or Adolescent Issues
Stephanie Marks
Hypnotherapist, MA
Are you a parent overwhelmed by raising your child? Are you struggling to remain calm and patient with your kids when situations are tough, leaving you feeling guilty and remorseful? Are you feeling frustrated and hopeless with your child, not knowing how to help them change certain behaviors they exhibit? Having a child can stimulates more feelings than any other life situation. In our children, we see parts of ourselves; in our parenting of them, we see our own histories of how we were raised, which can be painful and confusing at times. As a mother, I understand the complicated mix of emotions that is stimulated by being a parent. We can be pulled in different directions in our parenting, at times responding to our own childhood hurts. Becoming conscious of these patterns can open potential for new and more joyous ways of being with our children. I offer therapy to parents as well as to children and adolescents.

Jennifer Cain
Psychologist, Ph.D.
We live in a complicated society and being a child (and being a parent) can be hard. There is a lot parents can do at home to address the issues. You know your child best and I know what helps a lot of families; with this team approach you can expect positive results. I also give children a safe, comforting place to process their concerns and emotions. Skill-building is included when needed to help kids learn to manage stress and anger, and have better relationships with others.

Daniel Minuchin
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A, LMFT
As a family therapist, I work with families around the range of issues that affect children and adolescents from depression and problems in school, to behavioral problems , parent child conflicts, and family communication issues. I work with the whole family together. Often resolving general issues in the family will help resolve issues that children are having, even when the connection is not obvious. I find that working with the whole family is a quicker and more effective way to help resolve child and adolescent issues.

I adore children and adolescents. I have worked children and adolescents for years and have really come to see and understand the very particular needs of our youth. A lot of times, they just need validation and someone to just hear them. In sessions, I draw from psychodynamic approaches, play therapy approaches and CBT to support their particular needs.
