About

At 1337 Camino Del Mar, Suite B, Del Mar, CA 92014, Dr. Leah Robbins maintains a private psychology practice rooted in a holistic approach that integrates traditional psychotherapy, energy healing, and mindfulness. She is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Certified Usui and Karuna Reiki Master and Teacher, a combination that allows her to work with clients on mental, emotional, spiritual, and energetic levels simultaneously. Dr. Robbins graduated Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude with Departmental Honors from UCLA for her undergraduate education, then earned her doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Alliant International University. Her dissertation on disorganized attachment patterns in a war-deployed military sample received the F. Joseph McGuigan Student Research Award, and she has presented research at the International Society for the Study of Dissociation conferences in both Toronto and New Orleans. She is a certified coder in both the ABC Attachment Classification system and the Facial Action Coding System, having trained at the University of Minnesota's Institute of Child Development under Alan Sroufe, Ph.D. and Elizabeth Carlson, Ph.D. Her specialties include trauma and PTSD, attachment issues, dissociative identity disorder, anxiety, depression, gender dysphoria, and grief, with a particular affinity for working with empaths, highly sensitive individuals, and LGBTQIA-identifying clients. Her proprietary HEART Program guides clients through increased self-awareness, pattern disruption, and transformation. Located along Camino Del Mar, the office sits in the walkable corridor between Del Mar's village shops and the bluffs, where clients pursuing complementary holistic care also visit practitioners like Holistic Health & Healing. Families seeking child-focused psychological services in the Del Mar area can also connect with Dr. Mark Katz, another licensed psychologist serving the community.
