ABOUT THE THERAPIST

I have significant experience working in Israel with new immigrants, gap year students, and special needs children and their families, with expertise in parental guidance (hadrachat horim).

My Approach to Helping:

While having trained as a cognitive behavioral therapist, I endorse an eclectic approach with individuals, and various treatment approches in working with parents. I believe that each client has individual therapeutic needs and that it is important to tailor the treatment approach to the needs of the client.

Specific Issues I'm Skilled at Helping With:

  • Coping with Children's Disablility
  • Accessing Benefits and how to Navigate the Special Education System in Israel
  • Parenting Skills, Challenges to Parenting Children with Behavioral Issues
  • Adjustment of New Immigrants to Israel
  • Challenges Faced by Gap Year Students

My Role as a Therapist:

I see my role as a therapist as assisting clients to cope with various life challenges- be it moving to Israel and all that entails, accepting childhood disability, or parenthood in all it's complexity.

Additional Information About my Practice:

I work either on-line (zoom) or in person from my clinic in Jerusalem

TREATMENT APPROACH

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapy that focuses on how one's thoughts, feelings and behaviors are connected and can be changed. It is based on the idea that how we think (cognition) and how we feel (emotion) can influence how we behave. CBT helps people identify and challenge distorted thinking and replace it with more balanced thinking, leading to improved mood and behavior. ‘Homework’, usually containing practical writing exercises, is often completed by the client between sessions to reinforce the therapy. Examples of tools that practitioners often use are journaling, challenging beliefs, and mindfulness.

Family Systems TherapyFamily Systems Therapy is an approach to psychotherapy that emphasizes the importance of understanding how the family functions as a whole, and how individual family members interact and affect one another. It focuses on how family dynamics, such as communication patterns, roles, and power dynamics, shape behavior, and how changing these dynamics can lead to positive change. Family Systems Therapy is a collaborative approach, where the therapist works with the family as a whole to identify and address areas of conflict and distress.

Holistic PsychotherapyHolistic psychotherapy emphasizes the individual's interconnectedness between the individual's physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects and views them as inseparable components of a single holistic system. Holistic psychotherapy focuses on understanding how these components interact and affect a person’s wellbeing. The goal of holistic psychotherapy is to create a sense of wholeness and harmony within the individual, and to foster self-awareness and self-care. Holistic practitioners use a variety of approaches, including traditional talk therapy, mindfulness practices, and body-based therapies like movement therapy. They also may incorporate nutrition, physical activity, and other lifestyle factors into treatment plans.
