I've worked with Sasha Carrion for nearly 5+ years through completely different seasons of my…read morelife--business expansion, emotional blocks, physical trauma, fear, and major life transitions. Sometimes we've worked briefly on one issue; other times, consistently for months. Every time, I'm amazed by how quickly and deeply her work affects me. I've experienced talk therapy, journaling, mindset and spiritual work, and other healing modalities before hypnosis. All valuable, but Sasha showed me that understanding a pattern and actually changing the subconscious belief underneath it are two very different things. I am extremely analytical. I can analyze a problem from twenty directions and find twenty more. Sasha is one of the few practitioners who can meet me at that level without allowing my analytical mind to become an obstacle to healing. She knows how to get underneath it. Most recently, we worked weekly for 4+ months during one of the most destabilizing periods of my life. I was experiencing deep depression, recovering from a traumatic plastic surgery experience, and simultaneously dealing with an escalating HOA legal dispute. It affected my mind, body, recovery, home, and sense of safety. At the beginning, I could go from hopeful to terrified within minutes. Sasha didn't just tell me everything would be okay; she helped my subconscious begin to feel safe again. As new fears appeared, we addressed them before they became permanent beliefs. Eventually, I watched myself respond differently. Things that months earlier would have completely destabilized me happened, and I found myself thinking, "Okay. We'll handle it." And meaning it. Actually feeling calm. The external circumstances eventually began resolving too--far beyond what I believed was possible. But that isn't even the result I value most: The journey to the resolution did not destroy me. When I couldn't access faith in the outcome, Sasha could. She would tell me, "Borrow my faith." And I did. She held a vision of healing, safety, and resolution until I could believe in it myself. Empty reassurance doesn't work on me; Sasha's words have power because there is genuine conviction behind them. She understands me and is genuinely invested in helping me move forward. I trust Sasha deeply and respect her intelligence, intuition, compassion, and mastery of her craft. She validates what I'm experiencing while helping me change the pattern keeping me there. I've also realized I don't want hypnosis to be something I use only when something is wrong. I think of Sasha as an exceptional trainer for the subconscious. We train our bodies to become stronger--why wouldn't we give our minds that same support? There will always be new desires and expansions revealing new blocks. Sasha helps me move through them instead of building my life around them. Working with her is one of the most valuable investments I've made in myself--not simply because she helps me resolve problems, but because she has helped me become someone who moves through problems differently. And if you're skeptical about hypnosis, I understand. It has never felt like surrendering control of my mind. It feels like communicating with the part of my mind influencing me all along. You can consciously know you're safe while your body feels unsafe; you can understand a pattern perfectly and still repeat it. That gap is where this work can be transformative. 5+ years and countless limiting beliefs rewired and goals achieved later, Sasha is an invaluable part of my support team and someone I recommend wholeheartedly. She is a powerful healer, gifted hypnotherapist, and deeply intuitive and compassionate human being. She has held hope, calm, and possibility for me until I could hold them myself. Perhaps the greatest evidence that this work works is that I've needed to borrow those things less and less. The greatest compliment I can give Sasha's work is this: It changed the version of me who was going through it. And once that version of you changes, everything else has the opportunity to change too.

I am both a clinician in private practice and the parent of a client previously treated at Camden…read moreCenter. Camden Center is an IOP (Intensive Outpatient Center) and one of the few, in the Los Angeles area, that treats individuals living with mental illness. Dr. Jason Schiffman, the Chief Medical Officer and founder of the Camden Center is one of the best psychiatrists I know in the Los Angeles area. Dr. Schiffman is an excellent diagnostician. What stands out for me however, is his humanity towards my son who has suffered from mental illness for a decade. He treated my son with compassion; my son was never a label nor did his diagnosis define him. Camden Center has an integrative health approach to both mental illness and addiction. The clinicians have a broad range of experience from psychodynamic psychotherapy to CBT and DBT. The practitioners at the Camden Center reflect Dr. Schiffman's integrity and commitment to treatment. Living with mental illness and/or addiction is challenging for both the individual and the family. Finding a treatment facility is often a difficult and emotional decision. I encourage families who are looking for treatment for a loved one and support for themselves to contact the Camden Center.

HORRIBLE ALL AROUND…read more I don't even know where to start. To put it in simple terms, the people at this place worked directly with Lauren Brock of the advocacy group to violate my client rights and engage in many ethical code violations. I am traumatized from my experience. All they did was cause immense distress by creating a toxic and unstable environment, tell me one thing and do the other, then gaslight me when i'd get frustrated. They held financials over my head constantly in order to comply with their orders, and often made me sign ROIs i was no comfortable signing. All my private therapy sessions were relayed back to Lauren Brock, someone i did NOT want to sign an ROI for. All they wanted was a paycheck from my wealthy father knowing he was willing to pay as much as it took to "cure" me. Horrible. Their "amazing" psychiatrist also put me on meds that made me gain 30-40 lbs, i was pushing 170 at one point, and all i was told by the team was that i am showing signs of an eating disorder for trying to restrict myself and lose weight. They then proceeded to put me on an SSRI to "manage the dysmorphia" despite me having a literal BIPOLAR 1 DIAGNOSIS. That's actually insanity to me. Anyway, they lied on my discharge forms, took months to correct it, and then didn't actually correct it. In fact Laura made it seem worse than it was before. They also were extremely difficult to communicate with when my corvette got stolen off their property. Accountability seems to be a difficult concept for them to grasp despite non stop preaching that to me for over a year. My car was a 55k corvette, it's nothing special. and it was stolen at the BW house... Now what if someone decides to bring their 200k luxury vehicle? If you're charging us so much money you'd think you'd keep the house secure. With all this being said, Jeff, Dr. Aye, and nurse Kay are the exceptions. They were the only genuine people who actually cared about helping me, but they had no power or room to do so because Lauren and Laura Berman were running the show. Stay away from these people if you want real help for mental health or substance abuse. If you're a parent looking to support your child, STAY FAR AWAY. they will manipulate you. they will cause such a huge rift in your family dynamic while placing the blame solely on your child. it creates resentment and a lack of trust. My family dynamic has healed tremendously since I was able to escape this place and show my father the true reality of this place. We haven't fought since. Yet under their "care" there was fights every week, we barely talked, he didn't trust me, i didn't trust him, and everything was purely transactional between us. Wonderful dynamic you created guys! Be proud of yourself! Please note this is all alleged until proven to be true in court.

We've been seeing Dr. Lederer for over a year. It has been a challenging but eye-opening experience…read moreteaching us patience in each other but also with ourselves. Even though my wife and I have been together for almost a decade, there was a lot to learn about our process of communication and our patterns of thinking. It was scary to start, but she really helped us understand that what we go through are challenges that many do. Dr. Lederer never takes sides and had a very insightful and empathic way of helping us bring out and explain what we may not have the words to describe accurately to each other. Even though therapy can be difficult at times remembering, understanding and confronting issues, she has always created a safe space for us to open up even though at times we did not know how. We are glad that she has helped us understand that it's not just about focusing on what is wrong with the relationship, but always putting forward and not forgetting the positives as well. There is always on-going work to be done, but we are glad to have her guidance through it all.

I initially met Dr. Lederer before my husband and I were married. A good friend recommended her to…read moreus for pre-marital counseling and I had a lovely phone conversation with her while I was comparing therapists. She stood out to me as a wonderfully steady and calming person just from a single phone call, and I immediately had a great impression of her. We ultimately made the decision to forego pre-marital counseling due to time and cost restraints. Fast forward a few years post-marriage, and my husband and I faced a really tough point in our marriage. We had never done couples therapy before, but we realized that without help our future was uncertain at best. I remembered Dr. Lederer, called her, and pretty soon we were sitting in her office every week for the next year. We owe a lot to Dr. Lederer's sensitive and impartial guidance as we faced some scary issues together and learned how to communicate with each other more effectively. Her office became our safe space to really talk to each other and voice our thoughts and feelings openly. Dr. Lederer was there to guide us when we weren't truly hearing each other and provided us the tools to communicate better in and out of sessions. Dr. Lederer helped us during a critical time of rebuilding our trust in each other and in our relationship, and I look back on that time period now and find that I am grateful for it, despite how hard and often heartbreaking it was. We came out a stronger couple, a more cohesive unit, more able to speak and express our feelings to each other, and definitely a couple better equipped to weather the tough storms. The great thing too is knowing that if we are ever up against another seemingly insurmountable challenge, Dr. Lederer will be there as a resource to guide and help us through it all again.

I suffered from anxiety/depression since I was very young, as I became an adult the anxiety got even worse and turned into addiction, unhealthy relationships, I felt like I was a walking shell almost every day of my life. Then I came across Julia's Yelp page in November 2017, and I reached out. Little did I know that she was exactly who I needed in order to be who I am today. As she told me, hypnosis is the easy part, but it's the other work that she gives that made me REALLY work on myself. Fast forward to today, I've found myself and my purpose. I'm overall a much better, healthier, happier, mindful person than I ever have been. (PS. I go to Pilates a few times a week now, you'd be so proud of me!) If you're feeling how I did back in November (and for months and years before that) and curious about alternative healing, don't have a second thought and reach out to her today. Thank you for giving me my life back, I didn't think I could ever feel whole. You really did give me a new lease on life. I'm embracing it every single day.

Julia changed my life. I came to see Julia at a time in my life when I felt stuck in a loop of…read moreanxiety, self-loathing and overthinking. I sent an email reaching out for an initial consultation and Julia replied promptly to set a date and time. That first meeting with Julia made me certain I'd met and found the right therapist. She was warm, thoughtful, patient. She asked me questions I'd never considered, and it never felt like she was probing. Just giving me the right amount of space to try and articulate all the noise in my head. I met consistently with Julia for more than a year. Scheduling was never an issue, and I never felt rushed for time during our sessions. The best way I can describe the atmosphere that Julia created for me is to say that it felt like I was meeting a friend in a warm, cozy cafe where I could speak openly and endlessly about all that was on my mind - without fear, judgment or negativity. I brought to her all the trivial, minute inconveniences that occur in anyone's life (spats with friends, awkward run-ins with neighbors, etc.) as well as all the bigger challenges life throws one's way (heartbreak, losing your sense of purpose) - and Julia always gave each of my issues its proper place and weight. She listened and we discussed, but she never gave advice that felt prescriptive or mandatory. Always thoughtful and considered. The shifts she helped me make in my perspective and self-talk are pretty extraordinary. You don't always feel the change happening in the moment, but it's only when I turned to look back that I realized so much had changed in my life and in my thought processes since I first started seeing Julia.

She even asked questions. I felt heard and engaged with and for as brief as it was, it was like a breath of fresh air. I don't usually write reviews, but for someone who took time to listen when they had really no obligation to, I just had to. Highly recommend considering if you are looking at options. Hopefully maybe soon my partner and I can book a session.
