Teo Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, CCC, RPq
Supporting children and adolescents through their emotional and behavioral challenges is a crucial part of fostering their growth and development. I specialize in child and adolescent therapy, helping young individuals navigate issues such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and behavioral problems. Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and play therapy, I work collaboratively with both the child and their family to create personalized strategies for emotional regulation and coping. By building a strong, trusting relationship, I empower young clients to develop the skills they need to thrive emotionally, socially, and academically

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
Children and teens don't heal the same way adults do—they need someone who meets them in their world. As both a trained therapist and an experienced mother and grandmother, I know how to connect across ages: through play with younger children, walks and activities with teens, and deeper conversations when they're ready. Your child won't feel interrogated or judged—they'll feel understood. Together, we'll create safety where past hurts, family struggles, and overwhelming emotions can finally be expressed and processed at their own pace. Whether your child is anxious, acting out, or withdrawn, healing happens when they feel truly seen and accepted.

Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
I particularly understand what it is to be a parent: I have 4 sons, now grown and 8 grandchildren. I have also learned a lot through my clients and from professional development courses. Parents must address all of their children's' needs, in addition to their own and teach their children to address every single one of those needs when they become adults. Growing up is not easy and adolescence can be a particularly tough time. Please reach out and let your community help.

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.
