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.

Janie Venturina
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Something changed and you are not sure when. Your kid used to tell you things. Now the door closes, the answers get shorter, and the arguments start over nothing. I work with tweens and teens between 11 and 18, and I spend just as much time helping parents shift how conversations go at home. My background as a school-based therapist means I have seen how these patterns look in the middle of a school day, not only from the outside, and that shapes how I read what a family brings me.

Alberto Gamarra
Psychologist, Ph. D. NCSP
For many children and adolescents , wanting to feel like they're being heard and listened to is critical to changing negative behaviors. Often-times, despite their parent's best intentions, a third party is needed. Being an objective voice for these kids is often all that is needed. I'm able to help them bridge the communication gap they are feeling with their parents and sometimes, that is enough for significant change to start.

Esther Park
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA
Children and adolescents are both simpler and more complex than adults may expect. Oftentimes words fail, but actions and the use of play or creativity can be powerful tools of self-expression. I want to offer a safe space for you or your child/teen to discover new and meaningful ways to express themselves, process difficult experiences, and develop healthier coping skills.
