Self Help Los Angeles

When I was looking for someone to get help from. I was a little hesitant to come here because they don’t accept insurance. I thought to myself, is this really going to be worth it? I called and left a message. Armando called me back and made me feel like I’ve known him for years. I was so comfortable. I’ve seen him about 4 times and I loved it. It’s an unusual experience but definitely worth it. I realized who I was and changed for the better. Thanks again Armando!

I attended one of Tim Delgado’s transformational workshops, and I recommend others to do the same. In this two hour workshop, he helped me realize and remove old wounds from the past. It was an eye opening experience, and I appreciate all that I gained for having gone to Self Help Los Angeles. In fact, I have recommend him to many of my friends who are trying to get through difficult times in their lives –heartbreak, death, stress, anxiety, etc. All of my referrals have thanked me for making the connection, and they are bringing others to try it out for themselves (If you’re suffering from depression, anxiety or panic attacks, I suggest you schedule an appointment with Tim.)

When I called Self Help, I had just left an 11 year relationship and was done with traditional talk therapy. I needed something different. After reading all of the reviews, I called and spoke with Armando. I told him the type of person I wanted to become and why I was seeking help. He placed me with Dr. Leticia Montiel, who didn’t have many reviews on here so I wondered how this would go, but I was open to it.
I started my time with Self Help the first week of October. It’s now towards the end of November, and words can’t express how amazing my time with Dr. Montiel has been and the progress I’ve made in just 5 sessions with her. The relationship I was in was very unhealthy, and I had tried to end it before – going to traditional talk therapy to help me through it, but approximately 1 month with Dr. Montiel and I just feel like a weight has been lifted /​drawn out from me – an emotional weight that I had been carrying for about the last 7 years of that relationship.
Hypnotherapy felt a bit awkward at first, but if you give yourself fully to it and do the homework, it helps tremendously. Trust the process. I can’t explain how after a session, you leave thinking differently. Then you go home, sleep on it, and the next day, it is as though you have internalized the session and you just feel the world is better, brighter, and different after each session. Of course, it takes work, so you have to be committed to growing and doing the homework and following through. You don’t go in and talk about everything wrong in your life. Instead, Dr. Montiel helped me pinpoint and hyper focus on the root cause of whatever it is I wanted to work on, improve or let go. She has a wealth of experience and her approach is so gentle /​natural /​comforting. I felt like I was talking to a friend who was so committed to my well-​being and was eager to help me transform. Each minute of your session is definitely put to good use. Armando is also super responsive, so overall, my experience with Self-​Help has been extremely positive.
Doing this type of therapy and working with Dr. Montiel has helped me improve the quality of my life, and I feel it can only continue to get better from here. Looking forward to more sessions. :)

I first heard about Armando through my father. My father is the manager of a corporate business that was beginning to see some decline, mostly due to employees that were failing to take initiative. My father was in distress over his business and sought out Armando’s help given his experience in organizational leadership. Armando went in and did some motivational speaking and training that resonated with many of the employees. In a matter of months, business began picking up significantly. My father spoke highly of Armando as he single-​handedly reinvigorated the business, bringing a new energy to the company that continues to endure today.
About a year later, I began to struggle with some emotional issues that stemmed from a trauma I had experienced. Reluctantly, I made the decision to seek out help. After a google search for mental health services in the area, Self Help Los Angeles came up and I immediately recognized Armando. I learned that he did one-​on-​one sessions and made the call to set up a visit. In just one session, Armando was able to get to the root of my issues and his confidence in my ability to move forward inspired confidence in myself. I continued to see Armando for a period of time and after working with him, I gained the self-​confidence and resiliency that has allowed me to manage my life with more ease. The change that Armando has incited within me is something that I will always be grateful for. I recommend Armando’s services to my family and friends any time I get the chance. He is a true healer that cares deeply about the work he does.

I went in today also based on all the positive reviews. I called to make an appointment over the phone and Armando returned my call before the end of the day. Even though it sounded like he understood my situation over our phone conversation, I went in thinking was it even possible to change the way I felt and thought after so many years. I knew I needed to change but didn’t know how.
Well I went in knowing I should give it a try. I right away felt welcomed and comfortable. We right away got to the point and we both could relate to how we were raised. I went in with an open mind and I could feel better by just talking about my situation. I can feel he was not being judgmental and that he wanted to help. Towards the end of the session he explained we were going to have an activity where I would close my eyes and he would guide me to get rid of a lot of emotional baggage i had been carrying around for many years.(hypnosis?) I didn’t know if it was actually going to work but it DID. By the time we were through I felt like a brand new person. Very at peace, free, and like I’m ready for a new me. A better version of myself, ready to start all over again. I felt so much better that I booked another session next week to make sure I am on the right path. I would definitely recommend Armando and this place for anyone who feels they are lost, need help in life or relationships.

Wow! If you’d you’re stuck in a desperate situation and want to stay in the agony made from the problem, this man is not for you. If you’d like, however, to find a way to escape the burden of your dilemma and alter your mindset for the best version of yourself, then I’d highly recommend Armando’s guidance for you. What he’s done for me and so many other people is remarkable and will only help who ever through any «bump in the road».

Came here because of the reviews I had seen, I thought I should give it a try. Me and my wife had some very tough times this past month and after our first session, I have to admit that I can already see results, this therapy is going to work. We still have a long way but it’s in the right direction. Can’t wait to go back.

I have to say that I was skeptical going to this place-​I feel that I can heal myself. But actually I was wrong. Armando has helped me emotionally by hypnosis & I can say I’m no longer insecure, angry or scared. I feel confident & reassuring of myself every day since I’ve gone to see Armando.
He’s also given me the confidence to look for a different career path & not be scare about taking a risk. I’m grateful for his time & coaching with my life. I finally feel I’m on the right path on my life & I know where I’m headed.
I totally recommend this place if you want to change your life around.

I felt lost and stuck in life. I knew I needed to change but didn’t know how or where to start. I have used traditional therapy sessions before but I didn’t want to go thru so many sessions again. I found Armando and after one appointment my life has changed in so many ways for the better. You only get what you put into it but if your looking for a change, some help or a little guidance I would recommend you try this place first.

I have had crippling social anxiety ever since I graduated high school. I researched various therapy techniques and concluded that Armando is the man to help me. He understood my condition, told me related stories, and provided some interesting information. He made me feel confident that I was going to see change after the session. When it came to the hypnosis, it didn’t work. I felt calm, only because I had my eyes closed and was focusing on my mind. Did not make a difference in my life. Just my experience.

I’ve been meaning to write a review for the past 6 months, maybe longer. But, I like to think long and hard about what I’m going to say because this is more personal than «the restaurant had crap food and service.»
I originally went to see Armando due to major life changes. I wasn’t dealing well and my reaction to events in life (loss of my dear grandmother, lawsuit by her son because she left me her house as a ‘thank you’ for being with her for 17 years) wasn’t normal in my opinion. I would crumble and breakdown and let everything affect my entire life. My reaction just didn’t seem healthy. I had seen a talk-​therapist in the past when I was going through a breakup and it never helped me. The Harvard-​trained doctor told me I had ADHD. I don’t. Living in a world of instant gratification, I wanted something to help me deal with my issues NOW. I didn’t want to talk them over for 6 months and still feel like I’m at square one.
I quickly did a Unilocal search for mental health and landed on Armando’s name. The reviews were too good to be true. I waited to contact him until I was buried in paperwork from my lawyer and knew I couldn’t keep going to way I was going. I was about to snap so I just picked up the phone and called him. He answered personally and we started to talk. It was like talking to a friend I’d known forever. He’s very good about gaining your trust within minutes. That’s an impressive skill! After a few minutes we scheduled a session.
I didn’t know what to expect but Armando put me at ease. We just started to talk and within ten minutes he figured out what my previous pyscho doctor couldn’t figure out in 6 months. I had an idea what my problem was but he told me to my face. He didn’t sugarcoat it for me which is something I appreciate (maybe not at that time but in hindsight I do).
During my last session he asked me point-​blank what I wanted to do with my life. He knew I hated my job but I had no idea what I wanted to do. An answer popped into my head at that moment and I’ve been pursuing it ever since.
I haven’t had a session since June or July; it’s now November. I plan to go back for a «tune up» session in the next few months. But, I think I’m finally on track thanks to Armando.
Traditional therapy doesn’t always work. Armando is not considered cheap BUT if you take into consideration the amount of time and money people spend on traditional talk therapy (and the really good therapists don’t usually take insurance) and compare it with a handful of sessions with Armando, you will realize he’s the best way to go. He’s the instant gratification of mental health. And, he teaches you what the subconscious can really do. I think from this point on I’m done with traditional therapy.
Go visit him, you won’t be disappointed!

Armando has helped me and my family tremendously. His techniques are powerful and effective. After trying conventional therapies for years… I’m so glad and greatful that We came across Self Help LA.

I would have never imagined myself going to a therapy session. Going through some tough times I began to feel lost and had a lack of self-​motivation. Thanks to the sessions that I had with mando, everything changed. My job got a lot easier, morale has drastically improved with all employees. Home life has gotten better, stress has been drastically reduced. I would have never imagined that one session would have a drastic change in my life. I enjoyed it so I paid for additional sessions. The sessions pay themselves back. I do not regret going to mando. Thanks armando.

I came to Armando at a critical time in my life. I lost close family members and traditional therapy was no longer effective. I was at a point where I had major anxiety, couldn’t stop crying, and felt that things would never get better. I found Self-​Help LA on Unilocal and read all the positive reviews. I had never thought about trying something like hypnotherapy, but at this point, I was feeling so desperate for something to give.
Before going to the office, I had a phone conversation with Armando just to do my «homework» and get an idea of what I was in for. He spent an hour on the phone with me answering my questions, and getting to know me and what I needed. In that conversation, I knew he understood where I was at in my life, and I decided to sign up for 5 sessions. Prior to my first meeting with him, he sent me an audio of one of his conferences, and I felt more confident in my decision to meet with him based on his knowledge.
I noticed a major difference just after the first session. I stopped crying which was huge for me. I cried almost everyday for 5 months (no joke) before I met with Armando. I finally felt a sense of relief, and I was finally smiling again. Since then, I have been able to remember my family members without bursting into tears, or having anxiety. The rest of the sessions were just as beneficial, as he helped me to re-​focus on my future, and realize my self-​worth.
I do believe you have to have an open mind, and I am so glad I was open to trying hypnotherapy with Armando. It helped that Armando gained my trust and he made it so easy. He is very knowledgeable, sincere, and has such a positive outlook on life. I walked out of every session feeling revived. I am so thankful to him for the better quality of life I have had since.

This place is phenomenal, there are so many wonderful transformations that have happened in my life after coming here. I have been working with a life coach since the beginning of the year and I am the happiest I have ever been in my life. :)
When I first started I thought I was going to come in for relationship counseling and then very quickly I realized that my relationship was in a place far beyond counseling. I was not really living life on my terms, I was so used to waiting for other people to tell me, help me or guide me and I wasn’t taking action on things that were important to me.
Very quickly I learned how to take control of my life, my focus and start creating goals for myself. In the past I used to feel anxiety about the future and it’s now been months and I have conquered more goals in the last 6 months than I have in the last 6 years!
My life is moving so fast now and I am so elated that everything is falling into place.
Thank you Dr. Armando and all your staff for everything that you have done for me. I would absolutely recommend this place for anyone looking to move forward in their life, definitely worth making the call.

I can not express how grateful I am to have found This Self-​Help office! Armando Perez is the best!!! Yesterday I went in for my 3^rd session and I am almost feeling like my old self again!!! I have been battling anxiety & depression since this past February and I thought I had lost all hope, until I walked into this serene, relaxed office where Armando works his magic. He is a special healer & automatically makes you feel comfortable & helps you face your fears. I can’t explain how easy it is for me to fall into a hypnotic state (my whole life I thought this was impossible). Armando cares about your issues & is truly a genuine person. Thank U for all your help Armando!!!

I actually came to Armando because of the positive reviews I read on Unilocal and good thing that I did. I had been battling with emotional stress due to my relationship and with every session that i had with Armando there was a change. At the end of our last session I felt more confident about myself, I was able to manage my emotions better, and I definitely have seen a change of behavior.
What I liked most about Armando was that he is really down to earth, and when you speak to him its as if he has been knowing him for years. He filled me with a lot of positivity and made me see things in a different perspective. Besides all the help he has provided I also gained a great friend. Thank you so much for everything Armando

I’m somewhat leery about posting reviews concerning any type of service relating to my health personally, but I will make an exception here because I’ve never come across an individual like Armando or an organization quite like his.
I needed help managing test-​taking anxiety that had recently became out of hand.
I didn’t wish to return to my previous doctor or travel too far for services, so a quick Unilocal search brought up Self Help Los Angeles.
Initially I was a little stunned, seeing and reading all the 5 star reviews this guy got. so I gave Armando a call and we arranged a meeting for the following week.
The day of our meeting, a surprise quiz was given to us in class and I showed up to the appointment defeated and in tears. The moment I stepped into Armando’s office however, a very relaxing energy took over.
Meeting with Armando is not like seeing a regular counselor or hypnotherapist. Where you may spend time talking about your problems from the very beginning to the end in picture perfect detail, Armando’s just going to get to the foundation of your issue… and demolish it. No b.s. said.
During the session I was amazed to find a lot of things about myself that I alone wouldn’t have recognized consciously. You may even be surprised to find that the only person who has to be held accountable for some of your issues is yourself. Armando will provide you his own unique instruction on how to change your approach, outlook and feelings towards your challenges.
While controlling my anxiety towards tests is an ongoing process, I’m finding a lot of open doors and opportunities in my life that I was either blind to or uncertain of before. My confidence in my personal ability is expanding each week and I’m finding myself grow in all areas of my life.
I’m delighted to have Armando’s help each step of the way and looking forward to continuing business with this wonderful man.

I attended the Success Mindset two day course and I highly recommend it to everyone. Armando teaches the core fundamentals of how we are internally wired. He goes to the root of the objective and helps you gain confidence in taking the next step to changing your life. I gained a better understanding of who I am and why I do the things I do.
I’m a successful business owner and normally thrive in all that I do, but I needed a good refresher and new motivation so that I could take myself to the next level. We all need a good coach no matter what stage in life we may be. I came out of the course energized and motivated to conquer what ever came next.
The class was fun, I met some amazing new people with similar mindsets. I learned new tools that I was able to apply immediately.
I will continue to work with Armando and hire him to personally coach me and my company.
If you are truly committed to change, Self Help Los Angeles is the place to go to take that first step.

I must say that I wasn’t sure that Dr. Armando was going to be able to help me. I knew that I needed help in many areas of my life, so I was willing to try anything. After just one session with him, I’m feeling better than I have ever felt in my life. I know I still have work to do with him and I will definitely be going back for more sessions.
If you are having trouble in your life with anything don’t wait, go see Dr. Armando. It doesn’t hurt to see what he can do for you.
