ABOUT

I am a senior psychiatrist and psychotherapist working in private practice at an accessible clinic in the center of Tel Aviv.
I believe in a psychodynamic and integrative approach to therapy, and consider the therapeutic relationship as a key to recovery. I believe in coordination of care in cases in which a patient is being treated by additional therapists (GPs, neurologist, pain specialists etc.).

Main fields of interest include: Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Psychosomatic Medicine, Mind-Body Medicine, Mood Disorders (Depression and Bipolar Disorders), Anxiety and Panic Disorders, OCD, Personality Disorders, Stress Management, Adjustment Disorders, Relationship Problems, Vocational and Identity Issues, Adult ADHD.

I was born and grew up in the United States, and moved to Israel on my own at age 17.

Residency in psychiatry at the Haim Sheba Medical Center, Tel Hashomer Hospital
Psychotherapy studies, 3 year program at Tel Aviv University
I continue to participate in CME courses as well as clinical supervisions.
