I well preface this by saying I only called Dr. Aldahwi to inquire about her services and ask some…read morequestions regarding her practice and couples therapy but she exceeded my expectations in just a simple phone call. Not only did she address my basic questions that we all have when looking at therapy options for the first time but she actually took time to talk to me and listen to me probably more than she should have about my issues in my relationship. 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.

I've had the blessing of working with Rochelle for over a year and the healing has been beautiful…read more Rochelle's hypnotherapy techniques are always targeted directly for what I am working through. It is evident that I matter to her as a client, because she shows up with an open heart and mind to listen to my concerns and issues as well as guiding me through by asking me wonderfully thoughtful questions. She has never told me what to think or how to feel, but always encourages me to reframe my perspective when helpful. I am thankful for her, her gifts, and her practice.

Suzanne is a skilled clinician, a lifesaving miracle-worker, and living proof of flourishing beyond…read moreyour worst experiences. She's also a hilarious and truly unique character (at least in my opinion). Anyone who has a chance to work with Suzanne or her DBT practice should count themselves lucky -- I know that I do. Every single day, I am thankful for her and for DBT entering my life, I genuinely have no idea where I would be without them. I worked with her for just over a solid year. I was a mess and the work was hard, but she was patient, firm, and compassionate. In every interaction, I knew that I was working with someone who has helped countless others, including her own self. Suzanne cares deeply about everyone she helps, she will make time for you when you need it most, and she will never, ever lie to or B.S with you. She also has countless epic stories from the many fascinating eras of her life! Being one of the foremost DBT clinicians in the country, Suzanne has limited space, but I would highly recommend any of the therapists in her practice and I could go on for DAYS about the skills groups that they offer -- I truly believe that peer support changes lives like nothing else and this is the most well-run support group I have ever been in. After I became more stable and graduated from skills group, I realized that I was getting in a rut with Suzanne. This was not her fault, it was because of some previous trauma that I have around psychiatry and clinicians in general (like many of Suzanne's clients she was **far** from my first therapist). I decided to see a different clinician in So-Cal DBT's practice whom I adore, and we have been able to build incredibly on the stable foundation that Suzanne helped me get to. I would strongly recommend Suzanne to anyone with substance issues, I am personally not sober but hearing her own story and also watching her help people in a group setting, I think that she is particularly helpful with that. Be sure to ask her about her purse collection ;)

Suzanne Wallach and her team changed my life. My way of living is so much better, less painful, and…read morea life worth living. I never thought I could control my emotions, and wasn't even aware of them, until after this program. My private therapist, Ruth Avalos, was one of the best therapists I've ever had and did an exceptional job. Other amazing therapists there are Sarah, Danielle, Ruby, Sofia, and Patty. All absolutely phenomenal, Suzanne included. There is no DBT clinic anywhere in the area, if anywhere at all, better than this one. There group classes are amazing, the environment very supportive of one another, and very thorough. They also have great phone coaching at a moments notice, that got me through so many difficult moments I would not have survived otherwise. Thank you Suzanne and Wallach and her team. I highly recommend this place.

Her depth of knowledge is remarkable, and she brings such an affirming, compassionate, and genuinely uplifting energy to every interaction. I was truly blown away by how thorough and thoughtful she was in her assessment, taking the time to fully understand me in a way that felt both validating and empowering. It is so clear that her heart is in this work and that her top priority is truly the well being of her patients. I left our session with clarity, confidence, and a deep sense of gratitude for having found her. Lara is an absolute gift to this field, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

THIS IS IT!…read more 5-STARS: I did the searching, I read the reviews, I asked for the pricing. I did the comparison for you. She's the one. Don't waste your time and energy searching yelp and google (I'm the investigative shopper type). Rush to her website and book a virtual or in person session! THE STORY: I found Christina at what has been the scariest obstacle in my life--life threatening illness. I knew it was finally time to do the one thing I'd refused to do for years, face the facts...I can't "figure it out on my own", if I want real health and wellness green juice wasn't going to be the only strategy anymore, and I had to face the really scary truths. Let's just say, no matter how good things seem to be or how much you pretend them to be...your mind knows the truth! EXPERIENCE: Christina literally radiates this amazing energy! She has the perfect balance!! She isn't faking the funk or robbing you with some astronomical price that will just stress you out more. She finds the it what YOU need each time you go. She isn't harsh or intense- she's honest, so unless you want to keep lying to yourself, she will make you own the truth (but don't worry she will walk you out of the stuff that's been weighing you down with love and laughs and fierce female vibes!). You will leave feeling all the pressure off of you! But even when you leave your session, she gives homework! So the healing doesn't stop after you walk out, she gives you things you can incorporate each time to help you continue the work! IN A NUTSHELL: She's basically AMAZING! If you want real, honest, authentic, powerful, transformative healing...you see Christina. Love, a best friend!

A long overdue review for an experience I would like to forget as it was a complete waste of time…read more Was fine one-on-one, but then once I was put into one of her online therapy groups, it was a different story. For context, everyone else in the group was white and I was the only person of color. I was charged full price for all of her group sessions, yet she would cut me off and shut down my questions, and then blamed me for not "processing" fast enough to keep up with her pace. She refused to take full ownership for her poor behavior, justifying her rudeness as due to my being too "slow." In the last session she also excluded me from contributing to the group feedback and then said she would not charge me for the the session where I was forced to sit in total silence and not participate, but she never refunded me. Her billing person was also hard to get a hold of and not good at her job.
