Birgit Schreiber Dr
Psychologist, PhD and MA in Psychology
If left untreated, issues from and in childhood and adolescence can stay with us into adulthood, often we need to re-visit these and see how we can work with them to resolve them. This is also for parents and siblings of the 'child' or 'adolescent' who is showing the behaviours difficulties but might well be part of a more challenging system, often a family system.

Stuart Hellebrand, M.S., C.Ht.
Hypnotherapist
I began a 32 year career with Los Angeles County in 1970. During the entirety of my career I worked in residential and community based treatment programs providing treatment services to youth ages 13-18. My responsibilities ranged from having counseling and supervision responsibility for a caseload of twenty-four 15-18 year old minors, to having administrative responsibility for a 130 bed residential treatment program. In between these vastly different areas of responsibility, I served as a consultant to 24 residential treatment programs providing treatment services to roughly 2,100 adolescents. Despite that I have been retired from LA County for 23 years, I still work with 10-18 year old youth on a selective basis.

Online in Kelowna, BC
Kelowna is British Columbia's Okanagan Valley hub, a lakeside city whose combination of wine tourism, outdoor recreation, and rapid real estate growth has transformed it into one of BC's most sought-after places to live, with a correspondingly growing demand for mental health services. Interior Health provides public mental health services to the region, and a growing private therapy sector serves the city's mix of retirees, young families, tech workers, and seasonal residents. Wildfire risk has become an increasingly prominent source of climate anxiety and community stress as BC's fire seasons have intensified, and several local therapists have developed expertise in disaster trauma and environmental grief. Common therapy concerns include relocation and life transition stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, and the financial pressure of living in a market where housing costs have risen dramatically.
