Stefani Roscoe, LCSW, CGP
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I specialize in assisting people with their emotional well-being by improving awareness and acceptance of themselves. I am particularly passionate about helping children and families feel good about their relationship to each other. In the many years I have been working with children and families, I have cultivated my understanding and focus on the specific changes you and your family need to build healthy relationships with each other and out in the world.
I strive to make this process one that feels natural and collaborative. I invite you to enter the relaxed and open-minded setting I provide and allow me to hear your struggles. Whether you are looking to help your toddler with having better days or you want more peace in your home with your teen, my vast experience in understanding child development as well as family dynamics is an open handed offer to you. Feel free to be in touch for a free consultation prior to committing to beginning therapy.

Every child faces obstacles as they grow, and seeking help when challenges arise can foster growth and healing. If your child has become more withdrawn, irritable, or frequently sad; is avoiding social situations; experiencing emotional outbursts; or showing signs of persistent worry or fear, I’m here to support both you and your child.
I offer a compassionate, supportive environment where children, families, and groups can express and process their emotions. Through tailored therapeutic techniques, I work to help children and teens build emotional resilience, improve self-esteem, and develop healthier ways of interacting with their world. My specialties include anxiety, depression, and emotional regulation, providing the tools needed to navigate big feelings.
I work with children as young as 3 up to 17 years old, and I believe that the therapeutic relationship itself is the heart of healing. Our office is designed to be a warm, welcoming space where kids can feel comfortable being themselves. Play is their language and whether through sand play, art therapy, or imaginative play, I help children express what they may not be able to put into words; allowing them to process stress, anxiety, and emotions in a way that feels natural to them.
Parent involvement is a critical component of the process, and I collaborate with families to ensure the therapeutic work extends beyond individual sessions with your child. Through family or parent sessions, we can address your concerns and work together to create lasting change for your child that will be evident at school, with friends and in your home.
While I use play therapy with younger children (ages 3-12), I incorporate a broader, comprehensive approach for older children and teens, drawing from interpersonal therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and psychodynamic techniques. Every child is unique, and my goal is to tailor the treatment to meet their specific needs, supporting both their personal and emotional growth.
Let’s work together to help your child feel seen, heard, and supported.

As a therapist, I aim to help clients of all ages better understand their emotions and actions. I provide a welcoming space to freely explore all of life’s challenges and express big feelings. Reaching a greater understanding and self-acceptance can create a healthier, more peaceful life for the whole family.
Therapy is a collaborative process and we will work together to find the best solutions for your family. In session, I engage clients with curiosity, warmth, and a sense of humor. I enjoy helping kids express themselves and find new ways to manage their emotions, both inside and outside of the home.
I am happy to involve parents in therapy. Understanding the family dynamics is essential to creating lasting change and I am interested in hearing everyone’s perspective. I hope to work as a team to help the whole family thrive.
Please contact me for a consultation if you think I might be a good fit!
Shimul Hyder, AMFT
Every parent’s dream is to see their child happy, healthy, and well-adjusted. Modern day parenting brings challenges with technology; from screen time use to social media to the smartphone. Other pertinent themes include bullying, violence and the fear of drugs. As an immigrant mother of two tweens and navigating my own parenting challenges, I can empathize with parents and children straddling two cultures. Our frustrations with inherited generational parenting patterns may also no longer be working in this current climate.
Frustrations your child may be experiencing can lead to isolation, anxiety and depression that looks like “acting out”. This is where I step in and work towards understanding your child’s specific needs and help them reach their full potential.
A consistent, safe, healing space can be a truly transformative experience. I work in a holistic way, and this means including parents throughout the process in order to achieve lasting effects for your family.
My integrative approach incorporates various therapies, including play therapy, art therapy, sandtray, child-friendly mindfulness techniques, as well as psychodynamic and cognitive behavior modalities to bring about healing and change.

Do you struggle with setting boundaries? Are you looking to improve your dating or relationship habits? As a psychotherapist, my approach is collaborative and transparent. I work with individuals who want to move through their anxiety or avoidant patterns related to love addiction and codependency in order to create healthier relationships. I utilize a unique set of modalities including mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral, and Dialectical Behavioral approaches to help my clients identify core beliefs contributing to painful cycles and patterns in their lives.
By creating an empathic space for self-discovery and self-acceptance, I help individuals develop stronger self-trust and connection to their personal values. Together, we will explore and implement tools and strategies that will support you improving your relationship to self and others.
I am currently accepting new clients. I provide therapy in-person or online.
Ashley Richter, AMFT
I believe that we all have the tools within us to create the life we want to live. In therapy, we will uncover these tools and work through issues that you are facing, to create positive changes, and re/build relationships. People understand why they need a cast for a broken bone or stitches for a cut, however, when they are suffering from depression, anxiety, insecurities, boundary setting, fears, grief, relationship problems, etc. it can be isolating at times and very difficult to seek help.
Here’s what I want you to know: it is okay to not be okay. I am passionate about working with all different types of individuals (children, adolescents, adults, families) with a wide variety of disorders and issues. My background includes school based counseling and both inpatient and out-patient individual therapy working through a variety of presenting problems such as depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse disorders, family and relational issues, disordered eating, mood disorders, suicidal ideation and personality disorders. I am also well versed in group therapy, including process groups and groups with the UCLA PEERs Clinic where I assisted neurodiverse individuals with relational skills and other social challenges.
I believe each individual has their own unique story to tell and that they are the expert of their lives. I will work with you at your own pace using your strengths to create safe, inviting, and open therapeutic space that promotes communication and trust to further enhance your personal growth.
