Jazmin Melendez
Pre-Licensed Professional, LMSW
I believe every person deserves to feel seen, heard, and respected for who they are and the experiences that have shaped them. As someone who identifies as queer and is part of the LGBTQ+ community, I understand the importance of having spaces where you can show up as your full self without judgment or the need to explain who you are. I value culturally responsive, LGBTQ+ affirming, and identity-affirming care, and recognize that culture, family, identity, and lived experience are important parts of each person’s story. I approach therapy with curiosity, compassion, honesty, and humanity, while honoring both the challenges you’re carrying and the strengths that have helped you navigate them. I also believe there should be room for humor and genuine connection in therapy. My hope is that our work helps you feel more understood, connected to yourself, and empowered to move forward in a way that feels authentic to you.
I work with children, teens, adults, and couples navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, grief, relationships, identity, stress, neurodivergence, and life transitions. You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or unsure of what comes next. My goal is to create a space where you can be honest about what’s happening, feel understood, and work together toward greater clarity, confidence, and meaningful change.

Stuart Hellebrand, M.S., C.Ht.
Hypnotherapist
The many successes achieved by my clients continue to fulfill my professional life. Be it as a hypnotist, hypnotherapist, or educator, I have witnessed those with whom I have worked accomplish so much because of their hard work, made easier through hypnosis, hypnotherapy, and their use of self-hypnosis. As I always tell my clients: "Your successes are 95% your doing. I have simply been your guide, in bringing out your potential." At the same time, I teach clients self-hypnosis so that they are able to self-manage challenges that may arise moving forward. Increasing confidence and motivation at a subconscious level, has propelled them toward achieving their goals and objectives far sooner than would otherwise be the case. I feel privileged to have joined so many individuals during a formative part of their journey. I encourage you to engage thoughtful evaluation when choosing a hypnotherapist. It is important to weigh each professional’s education, training, diversified experience, and competence as communicated by professionals in the same or related fields. In these regards, kindly visit my website at www.HypnosisMotivation.com. There you will learn what both clients and professionals have written about my service delivery. Their testimonials address my performance in private practice; the work I have done educating and training psychologists and marriage and family therapists throughout California; an overview of my work as a Senior Clinical Instructor in a medical center's pain clinic; and my service delivery as an adjunct professor, teaching hypnosis / hypnotherapy subject matter classes for the Department of Educational Psychology at California State Northridge. Beyond the foregoing the deciding factor in your choice of a hypnotherapist should be your own compatibility assessment with that individual, following a consultation about your expectations, goals, and objectives. I welcome you to have a consultation with me, at no charge, in these regards. You can phone me at (805) 358-1011 or email me at Stuart@HypnosisMotivation.com. Be well, Stuart

Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
My approach to therapy is straightforward — understand what is getting in the way, figure out why, and build a clear path forward. I work with adults, couples, and high-achieving professionals who are ready to make real changes, not just talk about them.
I am Dr. Lyndsay Elliott, a licensed clinical psychologist with a PsyD and a postdoctoral fellowship from UCLA. For over 20 years I have provided evidence-based psychotherapy, psychological evaluations, consultations and expert witness testimony to clients navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, chronic stress, relationship conflict, narcissistic abuse recovery, couples conflict, infertility, reproductive mental health, postpartum depression, family conflict, and major life transitions.
My style is warm and engaged, but also direct. Therapy should be useful — sessions that deliver genuine insight, practical tools, and honest feedback that actually moves the needle. I integrate cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, solution-focused intervention, and trauma-informed care, tailoring every treatment plan to each client's specific goals and circumstances.
