Thank you Therapist Michelle Sherman for being my Therapist during our weekly sessions since 2021(5…read moreyears). The reason I met you was due to suicidal and homicidal ideations. And childhood trauma and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Because of your due diligence, commitment, caring heart and therapeutic processes I prevailed and overcame the triggers from the trauma. You remained consistent in my treatment and gave me a reason to live and want to live and not just exist and encouraged me to continue using Self care routinely and consistently. Your focus of therapy has been to support my emotional well-being, coping skills that kept me focused on my purpose and destiny and not focused on the problems and pain of the past, personal growth, and overall mental health needs. You taught me not to look back, think back, or feel back. But you encouraged me to look, think and move forward to accomplish my DESTINY Thank youuuu and may God Bless you and your precious family.

Having dated some half dozen psychotherapists over the decades and having been obliged to see some…read moreother half dozen by my insane family, I distrust psychotherapist simply because most of them are nuts and the LA-based ones seem intent on legitimizing bad behavior in their patients. However, the lingering trauma Palisades Fires brought me to Michele's doorstep for EMDR which she miraculously used to lift the trauma. But so many other things were happening with my family that I continued seeing her and she is a lifesaver. Unlike all the other therapists I have found Michele to be intuitive, willing to work out of the box to come up with solutions, and personally invested in my getting better. I cannot recommend her enough...indeed she is the only therapist I've ever encountered who I would recommend.

First I want to thank Christine. I found her through Yelp and I don't regret it. I've tried therapy…read morebefore w a therapist through Kaiser and unfortunately, it didn't help. I actually gave up on looking for another therapist for a while thinking that they would all be the same. I was wrong. When I found Christine, I simply just informed her how my other sessions w the other therapists have gone and what i didn't like and she went another way that would suit my needs better. Christine has been there for me and she always goes above and beyond. She has helped me through so much and continues to help me w so much. I have a session every other week and I truly look forward to them. She is so real and down to earth which I respect. Please look no further and contact Christine. I'm sure she will not disappoint you.

I have no words to adequately express the level of appreciation I have for the help Dr. Christine…read moreprovided for my son when he was going through a challenging period in his life. I have seen a number of wonderful therapists myself over the years for various reasons, and without a doubt, Dr. Christine is a special gem who shines out brightly amongst all of them. As I was reaching out to various counselors at the commencement of this particular turn in the road of my family's life (trying to find the right "fit" for my son), I felt an immediate connection with her and was struck by how quickly she intuitively grasped the situation we were grappling with. Her ability to establish meaningful and fruitful lines of communication with young adults is amazing; she was able to create a comfortable atmosphere where my son was able to relax and open up about what was going on. Her advice, views and observations she provided were expressed with a refreshing candor that he could easily identify with & process. Not always an easy feat to pull off with a teenager! The amount of time she has generously given, and her availability to my son whenever he reaches out to her with concerns or comments is unparalleled. Never before have I worked with a therapist who conveys such a level of fairness, caring and empathy. Dr. Christine was a ray of light that guided us down a particularly dark corridor of our lives. I highly recommend her to anyone (adult or child!!) who needs a helping hand through a bumpy stretch of life. Speaking from our own family's experience, the positive impact of our interactions with her will reverberate for a long time to come.

There is no one better…read more Dr. Karine came into our lives in the darkest of times and helped our son to overcome his fears and gain the confidence and perspective he so desperately needed. She is helpful to parents and children and looks to help the family to heal. I have used her as an amazing parenting resource and both my kids have benefitted from check in sessions once in a while and deeper work when issues arise. I cannot recommend her enough!!!

Karine saved my life…read more I know this sounds dramatic but if you're really interested in changing your life please read on. I started seeing Karine about 6 years ago when she first opened her private practice. I was in one of the darkest places in my life. I had horrific intrusive thoughts, horrible anxiety, terrible depression and so on. I barely graduated high school because I was scared of being in class. I couldn't go on freeways, I was unmotivated, I thought life was getting pointless and was even having thoughts that nobody should ever have in their life. Prior to Karine I've been to many therapists and a couple of psychiatrists. Now I know there are many great therapists out there but the ones I experienced didn't seem to genuinely care, or they didn't know how to tackle my problem. That was never the case with Karine. Coming to Karine felt (and still does) feel like I'm taking to a family member. She GENUINELY cares about your life. She cries with me, she laughs with me, she remembers every detail of our previous conversations, and she will take your phone calls during the day if you need an extra boost. I started going to Karine as a boy who was scared of life and didn't know where I was headed. I was sure I was going to be "disabled" forever, my mom would complain that I didn't even have $2 to go to Taco Bell. It was a lot of work, and there where a lot of good and bad moments on my journey but now I'm a changed man. I have my own career, make over 6 figures, know how to deal with my emotions, and I even took a trip to Hawaii recently!! To give you an idea just thinking about driving in the freeway terrified me. This is more of a thank you to Karine. I want to thank you public ally for everything you have done for me. I want to thank you for believing in me when I didn't believe in myself. I want to thank you for always being there for me and genuinely having my best interests at heart. If anybody is still reading this and you feel like you need help in life, whether it be you feel anxious or even if you just feel lost, please do yourself a favor and see Karine. I promise it will be worth it.

I had a pleasure to finally meet Dr Menije "in person" (Zoom) after I have been following her on…read moreInstagram for at least 2 years now. I have been a fan of her empowering messages about releasing self-perfectionism and embracing more self-love! So it was MY pleasure to have her as a guest on my podcast! I can tell by the way Dr Menije is sharing about her own life journey that she is definitely walking the talk of the messages that she has been disseminating. Dr Menije is warm, empathetic, has an amazing sense of humor, and really has her heart and soul in what she is doing. I am sure that the people she helps can say the same thing!

She really helps you get to the root cause instead of those "how does that make you feel" surface level therapists. I can't tell you how valuable that has been for me. To have someone that makes me feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while thoughtfully challenging me to work on what I needed to work on. I look at where I started and where I am now and I'm just so grateful for Dr. Ramlo.

She has supported me through incredibly difficult periods with patience, insight, and genuine compassion. I trust her completely, and that trust means everything. Her office is just as welcoming as she is. peaceful, spotless, and comforting. Every visit feels calm and familiar, which makes all the difference. Having her in my life has been a true gift and I don't say that lightly. She has made a lasting impact that I am so grateful for, and while I selfishly wish she could stay as my best-kept secret, she deserves to be recognized and recommended to anyone seeking exceptional care.

I can fall asleep! And more importantly, I can stay asleep!…read more This wasn't the case about four months ago when I started seeing Dr. Saghian for sleep and anxiety-related issues. At that time, I needed something extra, be it THC, Ativan, or Benadryl, to fall asleep, and even then I didn't usually stay asleep. There was always something going on in my mind. Dr. Saghian came highly recommended from a neuropsychologist at UCI so I had confidence in her abilities before even meeting her. But she exceeded my expectations, and I've already recommended her to several friends and family. She's warm, trustworthy, informative, and very conscientious of my needs. I look forward to my appointments that are always restorative in and of themselves. And while my anxiety hasn't completely disappeared, I'm less attached to it, and more able to see and feel beyond it, which makes me a lot less anxious.

I am so grateful to have found Dr. Saghian. She has helped me so much as I have been going to her…read morefor several years now. It's so good to know I can get through such challenging times. She goes above and beyond and most important she understands me! She helps me help myself to be better. She is non-judgmental and I feel I can come to her with any obstacle. Also she does neurofeedback which can help with several areas like anxiety, ADHD and ADD, mood, and also with pain! Going to Dr. Saghian was one of the best things I've done for myself!

I visited her for about two months. She is the traditional psychotherapist. She listens without…read morecommenting much. She does not direct the conversation or help you understand from a different angle or perspective. She has even fallen asleep in the middle of my sessions before. If you have a brain and can reason through problems I recommend seeing someone else because she won't help you much. If you cannot reason through a problem then I recommend you see someone else because she cannot help you either. She also cannot handle serious problems. She called back up in the middle of one of our sessions because she couldn't handle a problem. That was the last time I saw her. In short, I don't recommend her at all.

She is very educated and compassionate. I highly recommend her.
