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.

Psychologist, RPsych
Watching your child or teenager struggle with big emotions, school pressure, behavioral shifts, or low self-esteem is one of the hardest parts of parenting. When stress takes over, home life can quickly feel like a cycle of conflict, worry, or withdrawal.
You don't have to figure it out alone, and your child doesn't have to navigate these growing pains without support. We recognize that kids and teens process their world differently than adults. Our therapists meet young people right where they are, using creative, evidence-based approaches—like play-based therapy, expressive arts, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), and family-centered care—to help them make sense of what they're feeling.
Together, we help children and teens:
- Build Emotional Literacy: Learn to identify and express complex feelings in healthy ways, moving away from meltdowns, outbursts, or shutting down.
- Strengthen Resilience & Coping Skills: Master practical tools to handle anxiety, bounce back from setbacks, and navigate school and social pressure with confidence.
- Foster Genuine Self-Esteem: Develop a grounded, positive sense of self, build healthy friendships, and stand strong against peer pressure or bullying.
- Support the Entire Family: Partner with parents and caregivers to improve communication at home, providing you with actionable strategies to support your child with clarity and ease.
You can help your child move from feeling overwhelmed to feeling confident and resilient. Let’s partner together to bring peace back to your home and give your young person the foundation they need to thrive.
