Helping Kids—and Parents—Find Calm, Resilience, and Hope Again
As a parent, few things are more heartbreaking than watching your child wrestle with fear, anxiety, or stress. You’ve likely tried everything—waiting endlessly for appointments, feeling the frustration when traditional solutions fall short. The struggle is real, and you don’t have to face it alone.
But there IS hope. Pediatric hypnosis is a powerful tool that taps into your child’s natural imagination and strengths—helping them build confidence and resilience from within.
Hypnosis for Children. Real Stories. Remarkable Change.
Take 11-year-old Rhyan, for example. Medical visits used to be terrifying for her—requiring restraint and resulting in lots of tears and panic. Through our sessions, Rhyan learned how to access her courage and calm. She now approaches medical procedures with a quiet determination, knowing she can handle anything.
You’re not the only parent who’s watched this kind of transformation. Here’s what Nina, a mother from Connecticut, shared:
“My daughter had developed such intense anxiety about shots, that our Pediatrician literally told us that we needed to address it before her next appointment because it was too traumatizing for my daughter. Our Pediatrician recommended Stephanie immediately. When I reached out to Stephanie and explained the situation, she made me feel so at ease and confident that she could help my daughter. To be honest, I truly didn’t have much hope because our last vaccine appointment was so awful.
After the SECOND meeting with Stephanie, my daughter said, ‘Mom, I’m ready, but I want to have one more session with her just to make sure.’ I obliged. Well, the flu vaccine appointment was yesterday, and I have no words to explain what I saw. My daughter went from screaming, flailing, and requiring medical staff to restrain her to get a shot, to this calm, confident, poised young woman who was not phased in the least. I still can’t believe it. I am in awe. Not to sound corny…but this was miracle level stuff.”
Rhyan’s enlightened pediatrician, Dr. R, has trusted me for over a decade to help anxious kids like hers, witnessing these dramatic improvements again and again. We are facing a crisis in children’s mental health—anxiety, stress, fear, and sleep problems—but there are gentle, proven solutions.
As the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia notes:
“Hypnosis engages a child’s imagination and thoughts to build confidence and abilities.”
I specialize in pediatric hypnosis because when we empower our children with these skills, it changes the whole trajectory of their lives.
