ABOUT

I  believe in  creating a warm safe space in my client-centered private practice. As an experienced therapist who has lived in Israel for many years and worked in many different settings my clients include  Anglos and Israelies, young professionals,  the LGBTQ community, students in GAP year and Olim from different religious beliefs, backgrounds and nationalities. I speak Hebrew  and English fluently (and thus work with Israelies and Anglos).  I work with with adults, inviduals and couples. The issues I specialize in are anxiety, depression, relationships, conflictual family issues (past and present) and life stressors .  My hope is  to create a warm and safe space for my clients where they will not feel judged and where they will be able to talk about issues, work on them and to feel empowered. My practice is based on dynamic psychotherapy, narrative therapy and systems therapies but I am also holistic in my approach ,and believe that 'wellness' includes a wide range of things including empowerment , self care and self validation Having made  Aliya years ago I am aware of the complexity of adjusting to a new country and this often comes up in therapy. I am working in zoom or in person. I hope to see you soon and begin our journey; I love my job and continue to grow and evolve in it.

Shalom and warm regards, Debbie Shlider  MSW Tel Aviv .
