I've worked with Sasha Carrion for nearly 5+ years through completely different seasons of my life--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. read more

New Heal Yourself has been life changing for our family. When talk therapy didn't work after 2 years of trying, we finally tried hypnotherapy and immediately saw the results we had been hoping for. It was unbelievable to watch the progress. This is a kind, experienced and loving team. You will not be disappointed! Be open and give it a try!!!!! My only regret is not doing it sooner. read more

I started to come to this place with my alcohol problem but I ended up treating my anxieties on the way! I am not taking my medication anymore. Feel great. My specialist is Grawben Corona. read more

Estaba pasando por ataqués de ansiedad y pánico, sentía que no podía respirar bien, muy nervioso me daba miedo el tráfico ,o estar en lugares que ya me habían dado esos ataques de ansiedad y pánico, sentía mucho miedo a que si me daba un ataque al corazón fui al hospital dos veces y nunca me encontraron nada hasta que tomamos la decisión de tener una sesión con Sasha ya que ella tiempo atrás había atendido a mi esposa e hija, ahora gracias a Dios y a Sasha ya soy otra persona logré sanar problemas de mi infancia y salir de esos ataques de pánico, ahora miro la vida diferente y puedo decir que me siento muy bien Sasha a sido un ángel para nuestra familia y siempre estaremos agradecidos con Dios por haberla puesto en nuestro camino. read more

A friend of mine referred me to Sasha. He had done her intensive program and it had really worked for him. I was a little skeptical because I had always thought this form of therapy was quackery. I couldn't have been more wrong! Sasha is a consummate professional. She was insightful, intuitive and spot on with what I needed. My work with her has been impactful. It's given me clarity and helped me eliminate the anxious thoughts that used to hound me. While Sasha does hypnotherapy, it really is more than that. I highly recommend her. read more

I have had two sessions with Sasha and she's absolutely amazing! I have seen other hypnotherapists in the past, and Sasha definitely stands out from the rest. She's the real deal and helped me with the trauma I was suffering from losing my father a year and a half ago. One of the things that makes her truly special is her NRT or Neurosymatic Reconditioning Technique. It's basically the opening and closing of your chakra during her session. Another point that makes Sasha unique is that she records your session and actually sends you a link for you to hear and to use while working on yourself individually. Her hypnotherapy was fine-tuned and specific to exactly what I needed. Sasha's approach is gentle, caring, credible and she makes me feel like I'm talking to a best friend! Her craft is one-of-a-kind and I highly recommend her!! read more

Jessie Ramos 1 review I can't say enough about how much Sean has helped me. I was addicted to sugar and had emotional issues to a point I was over eating and always tense. He has helped me feel calmer, and I'm starting to enjoy being me again. His voice is very soothing. read more

Sasha called me back so quickly I was blown away. She was sweet and answered all my questions. She recommended Heather and upon meeting Heather - I immediately felt comfortable. She has a great soothing vibe. They sell the softest weighted blankets too. I didn't get one but I'm thinking of going back for one! read more

I cannot say enough how beneficial my hypnotherapy with Grawben has been. I have been to various therapists and on various medications throughout my life to treat my pretty run-of-the-mill anxiety and depression issues. I have found hypnotherapy to be so much more effective at making change. With typical therapy, I've been able to understand why I think the things I do, but only hypnotherapy has actually helped me to make changes to my thinking. Hypnotherapy helps me to take control of my issues with the guidance of a hypnotherapist. Especially if you're someone that has a strong narrative in your head or negative self-talk, the combination of listening to hypnotherapy regularly and the exercises that I'm recommended have made a world of difference to me. My hypnotherapist Grawben is so talented at helping me to figure out what's important to me and guiding me through my issues. She holds you accountable while being extremely compassionate and non-judgmental, and gives you the tools to change your mindset. read more

I got in touch with Grawben for hypnosis regarding my fear of needles. She is so knowledgeable and has such incredible energy. After the first session I immediately knew how much she could help me. I'm so grateful to have found her and couldn't recommend her enough! read more

I have used Sasha for creating new habits and traits for over 10 years. I first found her when searching NLP. My thought was rather than doing therapy to try to go deep to determine the root of certain behaviors, I'd simply try NLP to override it. My husband tried with something very simple. It was the year of the HUGE cupcake craze in L.A. and he found himself being drawn to the Sprinkles, Crumb, Susie Cakes and the like every day. Of course, he was picking up weight from his daily cupcake habit. But with a job that is nonstop, it became a reward of sorts for him. So, he did NLP, and within a week of listening to the recorded session daily, he had no craving for cupcakes (even 10 years later, if he has a taste for something sweet, it's never a cupcake). What I wanted to work on was a bit deeper. So, I went to Sasha. I told her I'm a Christian, so there are certain terms I know my subconscious would likely reject. So, I asked her to use terms like "God" when referring to a higher power versus "the universe." There's nothing wrong with the latter, but I also know my subconscious would likely become skeptical of the hypnosis so suggested she avoid certain terms. I'd been indoctrinated from an early age not to trust things like hypnosis, so in order for it to work, I knew we couldn't fight those subconscious thoughts out the gate. She was so understanding and respectful of my request and her hypnosis was perfect. I'd paid for an entire series of sessions, but she was so effective, I never even used most of them. So, years later, I reached into her and there was another trait/behavior I wanted to improve upon. And she did a new hypnosis for me, recorded it and then I listened to the recording 1-2 times a day. She's so good, I can't even remember what the issues were, as I've not dealt with them in so long. Then, years later, o had another thing I wanted to work on to become my best self, and she picked up right where we left off years prior. That session was today. And immediately after we finished, she let me know she'd be sending the recording so I could listen daily until this new goal becomes a habit. And like clockwork, the session was in my email box an hour later. She really is extraordinary. I've referred her to people with all different kinds of beliefs, and she's able to tailor their sessions based on their beliefs. I'm not sure if that is the norm for those who do NLP, as I've only used Sasha, but it's certainly the norm for her and why I continue to recommend her work to anyone struggling to overcome something. When all else has failed...Sasha. read more

Ana-Pia is so talented at helping you identify the road blocks holding you back from experiencing life fully, pinpointing the source of those limiting thoughts and then working to overcome them with hypnotherapy. She is able to conduct this journey into yourself in a way that feels like gentle, but firm massage within your mind and body. She records sessions, so you can experience these mind massages any time you would like. I am having such a wonderful experience with Anna-Pia that the selfish side of me didn't want to write this review. I don't want her to book up. But in a world fractured by divisiveness, a pandemic, soaring gas prices, and violence, many of us could deeply benefit from the deeply empowering, gentle gifts of Anna-Pia. So I am sharing her with you. More than grateful for my sessions with her. read more

I worked with Suzan Brittan as my hypnotherapist. She is amazing as she has the most calming voice to help soothe any of your issues. I felt so relaxed and renewed after my session, and I look forward to my next visit with her. read more

2023 has been a very tragic year for me. So far, I have had a lot of grief to overcome. I am incredibly grateful for Suzan Britton taking me on as a client. She is so attentive and caring and also very helpful. She is very passionate about what she does. She is someone that I trust and feel comfortable with. During our first meeting, she was able to calm me down and give me tools and strategies outside of hypnosis that helped me tremendously. After each session, I feel better and more confident. I can not begin to express in words how much Suzan has helped me. I do not feel as lost as I once did. I look forward to our sessions. Knowing that after our session, I will have a more positive outlook on life and confidence, I highly recommend Suzan Britton she is a true angel. read more

I was skeptical at first but Suzan walked me through the whole process. Answered all my questions and made sure I felt comfortable. My overall experience was amazing. I felt more confident and free from stress after seeing her. She is beautiful inside and out. Very patient, attentive, charming, and welcoming. read more

Very disappointed with Sasha's management of her business. After giving a deposit on a credit card, she wanted the remainder on Venmo. I was in surgery unable to download the application for a few days, and instead of simply reminding or asking me for payment sent an extremely aggressive and unjustified text message. Clearly all this person cares about is money. Which is a shame, because I actually thought her services had a lot of potential. But, the way she handled not receiving money for 48 hours showed her true character. read more

I am very happy with the results that I've had from my sessions from this facility. I have high masking autism, but I still have autistic tendencies that disrupt a healthy lifestyle. This included severe food aversion to specific foods and an extreme irrational, immature fear of needles. Recently had to go to the hospital and they had to draw my blood four times. That would've typically been a never-ending nightmare for me but I honestly noticed the growth with my interactions with the nurses alone. I didn't kick anyone I didn't punch anyone and I didn't try to run away and that's a huge change for me. Last week I tried food I've been physically afraid of since I was a toddler. I've been doing my sessions with Dr. Grawben, and she is so wonderful and understanding. So far everyone I've interacted with within this company has been so genuine and willing to help. I've been recommending this to everyone! Try it once I guarantee it'll change your life. read more

I went to see Heather for tapping lessons (EFT), hypnosis, meditations and trauma release....all the things. She is AMAZING! As soon as she stepped into the session I felt safe, and able to trust her with very personal information. She is professional, and the healing work seems to come naturally to her. I wanted to learn EFT as a tool I could use in my day-to-day life stresses; she went through a lesson with me, sent me home with some digital lessons, and followed up to see how they are going. I'm starting a new business venture and a lot of fear and anxiety has come up so I will definitely be booking another session with Heather soon. read more

I've been working with June off and on the past 6 or 7 years and if she can't help you no one can. Good listener, creative problem solving. She will help you achieve your goals. read more

Had a great experience with Sasha. I had been a two pack a day smoker for 20+ years. After a few sessions I no longer felt the urge to smoke and my life has been dramatically better. Two days after I quit smoking I slept through the night for the first time in 10 years without waking up coughing. I feel great, I have more money, but most importantly my family is happy. Thank you Sasha for such a great experience and truly changing my life! read more

I can't imagine not sharing Sasha's talent, kindness, and love to the world. More people need to visit her at her gorgeous office in West LA. I have been under hynotherapy for 4 sessions and I can honestly say it's life changing. Anything you need help with its possible with Sasha to guide you. read more

Diana Cardenas has helped me so much! I am writing this review to express how grateful I am for how much progress I have made since first starting to work with Diana. In the time I have seen Diana for hypnosis, I have completely transformed my financial life and my career. My friends and family both noticed changes in my confidence levels and in my mindset even before I was aware of them. Diana has a naturally soothing voice that is perfect for hypnosis and you can tell she really cares about people. Her passion for both mental health and hypnotherapy work together to make her sessions radiate with wellbeing, peace, and joy. If you are seeking hypnotherapy and you are ready to make changes in your life, I would whole heartedly recommend Diana Cardenas. read more

I would give Lara 10 stars if I could! She has bringing me so much join and motivation to look and feel better.

Make a call to Heal Yourself LA and make sure you make an appointment with Lara. I feel like a new and better person every time I see her. You won't regret it! Thanks so much Lara!

I have had a few sessions of individual hypnosis with Lara. After every session I feel better. Lara is very approachable and kind, she listens to you carefully and asks you insightful questions that can help you analyze and understand yourself better. The hypnosis is very relaxing for me, feel like a yoga/meditation session, not as scary as I originally thought. Can't wait to improve even more with Lara. read more

Shout out to Anna Pia -- my mental health has been a struggle for me my entire life and I have usually dropped out of therapy after weeks/months/year or two because I felt aimless in its scope and unable to keep up with the task. Anna Pia and I have been working together for around 6 months and we both mutually decided to downgrade my session frequency from weekly to bi weekly simply because I felt competent enough in my own coping skills! I'm so thankful for her support, empathy and vision. Truly an amazing practitioner! read more

Sasha is amazing! I've had 2 sessions with Sasha and just even with the first session I noticed a tremendous shift in how I was feeling!! She has helped me out so much!

Thank you so much Sasha there are truly not enough words to describe how amazing I have felt and how grateful I am to have been able to try hypnosis! It's also very cool and different experience. I highly recommend anyone to try hypnosis it's truly a wonderful experience!! Thank you Heal Yourself La!! read more

Diana Cardenas provided me with the fastest results that helped resolve my issues. I started seeing Diana in person after a very rough patch for myself. I highly recommend Diana as your therapist. She worked first with just my ability to feel, to take in what I was experiencing into my heart in order to open myself up to possible change or to acceptance of what is fully. Then, when I came closer to being able to do that more consistently and fully, she worked with me to open up to self- acceptance and self-chosen purpose so that I was able to move forward in the world and live a better personal and professional life. read more

The lasting impact that my time with Suzan has given me is unparalleled. She has an exceptional ability to approach each personal goal with such care, understanding and positivity. She has helped me overcome past traumas and mend many relationships while holding such a safe space for my process. She has not only provided me a clean lens to approach life through, but such a strong foundation to build on. I am so beyond grateful for her services and give my full recommendation! read more

I had the good fortune and Divine providence to have several Hypnotherapy sessions with Suzan Brittan, and it was an absolute revelation! After many years of traditional therapy, I made very little headway with my psychological issues,, but after just several sessions with Suzan, I made a breakthrough and poured deeply and effortlessly into my psyche and past wounds, including sexual abuse. She was a strong yet gentle healer and guide. I'm a big fan of both Suzan and Heal Yourself LA. She is an absolutely outstanding practitioner and Heal Yourself LA should be your second home. Now go get yourself healed!! read more

I have been seeing Gina Eckstein for month's. She has guided and helped me through some really tough times. Her compassion is a gift and helped me to become a more positive and understanding person. I trust Gina and always enjoy speaking with her and listening to her advice on how to improve my life! read more

I have worked with hypnotherapist Karina Sweet. She is AMAZING! Karina is warm, empathic, and insightful. She helped me resolve a number of concerns, some of which had plagued me for some time. Karina is exceedingly nonjudgmental and as a result, I always felt safe and supported. She helped me change my life for the better. I could not recommend more heartily. read more

Like many who hadn't tried hypnotherapy before, I was initially curious about it, but didn't really know where to start. After living in a different city and meeting with other hypnotherapists, I've learned that Sasha is as good as it gets. I found Sasha on Yelp, had a fantastic first session with her, and have been a client for years ever since. Her new office space on the Westside (vs. her original spot in Santa Monica) is spacious, professional, and of course, has the comfy chairs I've grown to love over the years. While the increased space itself is great, it's Sasha who makes the experience awesome. Sasha's warm demeanor, ability to listen, and create a perfect space for hypnotherapy have truly changed so many aspects of my life for the better. We've worked on athletic performance, confidence, the residual effects of a bad break up, and even creating a general state of positivity and an "I can" attitude before I took a new job and moved to a new city. I can truly say that my sessions with Sasha have been some of the most impactful hours of my life. While I've seen dramatic changes in my life, I also always thought our sessions were pretty unique and cool experiences in general. As someone who likes interesting things, I always enjoyed that part as well. One of the best parts of working with Sasha is that she regularly checks in with her clients to see how they're doing after their sessions. If you're doing great after a session and feel like you're good, awesome - she's thrilled for you. If you want to come back in for another session to keep taking strides towards your ultimate goal, she'll be there for you. I'm so happy that I was introduced to hypnotherapy with Sasha. I've sent many of my close friends her way and they've all had great experiences with her as well. If you're interested in hypnotherapy or you've tried traditional talk therapy with a long schedule of sessions and found it wasn't really for you (or your work schedule), you'll be in great hands with Sasha. read more

This works. I have done hypnosis in the past with varying results. I went to HealyourselfLA after reading reviews, texting with Sasha and deciding that I needed to invest in my health, since what I was trying was not working. I had developed a major addiction/compulsion to eating large amounts of sugar, especially at night. This is not good for anyone, but especially not for a Type 1 diabetic who has to match every carb ingested with an imprecise amount of injected insulin. When I ate sugar, I felt like I deserved it, it was a reward, I skipped meals so I could eat and I needed it, obsessively every night. It was impossible to stop on my own. I tried OTC pills, online eating programs, read everything I could, worked out like crazy and my stomach hurt every night and I felt like a failure and felt bad every day. It was my great fortune to meet Heather. She is very kind and intuitive and talked to me at length about what I needed, why I thought it was happening and what could assist me to stop the madness. She created a plan with full input from me. The hypnosis itself was so cozy and relaxing that I fell asleep every time but my subconscious was wide awake. I chose to do three sessions because I wanted to make sure that it worked. Every time I went in , after we talked, Heather tweaked the hypnosis to strengthen the internal message. After week one, I was able to give up straight sugar like ice cream to fruit bars, after week two I stopped the fruit bars and after week three I stopped all processed sugar. I didn't want it anymore. My body felt so much better and psychologically, I didn't feel like the failure that comes from sugar binging. This investment was so worth it for me. I've also lost 8-10 pounds and feel really good. I can't recommend this agency, and particularly Heather, who is a lovely human being, enough. If you are stuck, this will set you free. I've subsequently worked successfully with Heather on other issues and have sent my husband and daughter to work with her as well. I do hope that you will take this opportunity to address the things that are bringing you down, and are difficult for you to take care of yourself. This is the right place and you will be so happy that you did it. read more

I have visited Sasha 6 times now and have never been more empowered. I usually have a hard time sticking to saying "no" and allowing people to take advantage. Sasha has helped me gain more confidence in my decision. I have never been more firm in any circumstance of my worth! Thank you Sasha!! read more

Wow. Wow. Wow. I went to Grawben as a final shot at helping with my panic attacks, anxiety and rumination. I was planning to start on anxiety pills even tho they gave me bad side effects. After one session with Grawben I have had no anxiety or panic and my whole life and relationship has gotten so much better. It's been 7 weeks since my first appointment. I have been going weekly and I listen to Grawbens recording daily ever since. I can't explain it but when I left and my mind tried to start ruminating it was like there was a dam up blocking my mind from spiraling. It's my first time going to hypnotherapy and I said I would never do it. But it's not like you see on TV at all. You are conscious the whole time (unless you fall asleep) and in control. I am now seeing Grawben for hypnotherapy before a surgery. Not only is she magic but she's also a really nice person. I did therapy for 2 years weekly before that and one session with Grawben and I'll never do regular therapy again (unless I just want to sit and vent to someone) Can't recommend enough. THANK YOU Grawben read more

I get the pleasure of working with Rosemary and I could not recommend her enough. I am 34 years old and came to Heal Yourself LA as a recommendation from a friend who works with Sasha for anxiety, depression, GI issues, night time panic attacks and trying to figure out next steps with my career. After 3 sessions my nighttime panic attacks/nightmares have subsided and I am feeling like a brand new person with a new career in the works. She took the time to really work with me and understand all of my issues at hand. I highly highly recommend Rosemary to anyone who is searching for relief :) read more

Sasha is changing my life for better. I wanted to try hypno therapy for a long time. It's a scary thing to trust someone with though. A friend recommended Sasha to me and told me how much confidence and happiness Sasha was bringing to her life. Sasha has brought myself happiness and clarity. She is a beautiful human and I'm learning so much fro her. I can honestly say the coaching in itself and the hypnotherapy are working wonders for my life. I'm working more than ever and my friendships are either flourishing or I'm getting rid of the ones that aren't working for me in my better headspace. I recommend Sasha to everyone I know and I recommend her to you! read more

This post is originally from my Google review: My sessions with Sasha has been transformative to say the least. She's attentive, caring and knows her stuff to help work through my challenges. I have to add that her custom weighted blankets are amazing. Will be getting one soon!! read more

Sasha is amazing! She helped me get through some pretty tough time in my life. After moving back to Asia, it's been very difficult to find a good hypnotherapist that is a good fit for me and understanding the culture difference, etc. I have been doing hypno sessions with Sasha virtually even before covid. Sasha is not only passionate about her work, she is also skilled and business savvy, and always offer the best advise! I'm so glad I've found her and I would highly recommend her! read more

I've had three sessions with Lara and it's been a wonderful experience! I felt comfortable with her right away, she is very kind and perceptive. I came to her to help let go of past relationships, and attract a new, healthy relationship. I've only had three sessions so far, but I already feel much lighter and happier. I'm excited to see where I'll go from here. I'd highly recommend Lara to anyone :) read more
