Therapy for Individuals & Families with a specialization in Kids, Teens & Type 1 Diabetics
Las Vegas Therapy for Children, Teens & Type 1 Diabetics
Welcome to my Las Vegas therapy practice. I’m Charlotte Stephenson, an MFT-Intern, and I specialize in helping children, teens, and people living with Type 1 diabetes. I also work with individuals and families at every stage of life.
If your child is struggling, your teen is pulling away, or Type 1 diabetes is wearing you down, you don’t have to figure it out alone. My office is on S Durango Dr in southwest Las Vegas, and I’d love to help.
I’m a Type 1 diabetic myself, so I understand the daily weight of carb counting, numbers, and constant decisions. Living with T1D, or parenting a child or teen who does, can bring stress, burnout, anxiety, and worries about the future. I offer therapy for children, teens, and adults with T1D, and for the parents and family members who support them. Learn more about Type 1 diabetes therapy →
Teenagers are my favorite people to work with. Adolescence brings a lot at once: school pressure, friendships, identity, anxiety, low mood, and big changes at home. In teen therapy, I offer a space where your teen can be heard without feeling lectured or judged, and I keep parents informed in ways that respect everyone involved. Learn more about teen therapy →
Children often can’t explain what’s wrong, but it shows up in their behavior, sleep, school, and mood. Before becoming a therapist, I was a first-grade teacher, so I understand how children think, learn, and communicate at different ages. Child therapy can help with anxiety, big emotions, family changes like separation or divorce, and more. Learn more about child therapy →
Play is how children naturally express what they feel. In play therapy sessions, kids use toys, art, and imaginative play to work through worries and experiences that are hard to put into words. Parents are an important part of the process, and I’ll keep you updated along the way. Learn more about play therapy →

-
Anxiety and depression
-
Parenting struggles

I’m a mom of teenagers, a former first-grade teacher, and a therapist who lives with Type 1 diabetes. Together, those experiences shape how I work: with patience, humor, and respect for each person’s pace. Read more about me →
