Parents love it here.
Every review from our Santa Monica and West LA offices, straight from Google.
We are so happy with the experience we’ve had at Child Therapy Center, and we especially love Cassidy. We have seen such a huge change in our 9-year-old (anxiety, ADHD). She had a great school year, her emotional intelligence and regulation has sky-rocketed, and she has become braver and more confident. But the best review? Our daughter LOVES “Cassidy days.” She wakes up in the morning on session days and exclaims, “I get to see Cassidy today!”
Our daughter (10 year old) worked with Child Therapy Center for a year and it was the best decision we could have made for her. Her therapist was very insightful and supportive, skilled at assessing and then addressing our daughter’s needs, and we can truly say that she is thriving with the help of the tools and support she received here.
We are so grateful for Child Therapy Center of LA and therapist Sherrie. We are only three months in, but have had a weight lifted through Sherrie’s supportive approach (not only for our kiddo, but us as parents).
Highly recommend Child Therapy Center of Los Angeles. Caring therapists, welcoming atmosphere, and genuine support for children and families.
I am so happy I found child therapy center. This place really understands human nature, children and adults. I really appreciate their respectful, positive philosophy. My son absolutely loves his therapist and looks forward to going.
Highly recommend CTC for well-rounded and effective care for children and teens in West LA. I am continually impressed by the team's ability to understand and utilize tailored support for each client and family they work with.
I feel so thankful for our family’s experience here. We were in good hands from the moment we walked in their door. The highest quality and most lovely therapists. Professional all around.
Child Therapy Center is such a wonderful place. The entire team is incredibly kind, professional, and welcoming, and the space itself is beautiful, calm, and thoughtfully designed.
A life changing resource for parents on the path to helping their kid thrive!
I really appreciate the way they support the whole child by focusing on the mind body connection. They also don’t overly focus on a diagnosis and that is super helpful for providing deeper support.
We have had a wonderful experience at CTC. Our therapist, Brege, has equipped my daughter with wonderful tools to address her anxiety and ever changing emotions. I would highly recommend this facility to any parent looking to get their child the extra help they may need.
Brege has been an exceptional therapist for our family. She connects easily with young people and has a deep understanding of their needs.
Beautiful place.
We've had such a wonderful and positive experience with Child Therapy Center LA! All of the staff and providers are warm, responsive, and truly easy to work with.
We get it.
Watching your child struggle is hard.
We know you want to be a confident parent of a healthy child. In order to do that, you need to understand what's really going on and how to help them thrive.
