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.

Karina Baltazar-Durán LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Let's face it, being a kid or teen is hard. Overwhelming emotions, little to no coping skills, feeling like "no one gets it". At the base of being a kid or teen is also opportunity. Opportunity to learn, to grow, to seek understanding, and feel validated. Kids and teens are my jam and I'd love to help you re-connect with yours.

Amita Khare
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Sometimes children and families face challenging problems. Maybe it's a separation or divorce of parents, death in the family, or moving. I have worked with children, teens, and families from diverse backgrounds for the last 17 years. Depending on the client, I use play therapy, art, and cognitive-behavioral approaches to help children and teens be successful in managing anxiety, emotional outbursts, anger management, and defiance, as well as trauma experiences.
