Leora Bednarsh, MSW

My approach centers on the innate human capacity for healing, activated within a supportive, secure therapeutic relationship. I help individuals and couples cultivate psychological flexibility and restore emotional stability. By processing deep emotional truths in the room, clients unlock their internal and external resources to break negative cycles and face life's challenges with resilience.

I specialize in helping individuals and couples heal from Trauma, PTSD, and deep-seated relational wounds. My practice focuses heavily on processing attachment trauma, de-escalating couples distress, and helping clients break free from the cycles of anxiety and depression. Additionally, I have specific expertise in supporting reservists and their families through Miluim service adjustments and operational stress, as well as guiding clients through complex grief and major life transitions.

I believe in the innate human power to heal, a potential that naturally unfolds within the safety of a supportive, transformative therapeutic relationship. In our work together, I combine this core belief with experiential, evidence-based modalities to help you achieve lasting change. By integrating the mindfulness and values-driven action of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with the attachment-focused depth of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), we do not just talk about your struggles—we process them dynamically in real time. Whether working with individuals or couples, my goal is to help you break through rigid patterns, heal relational wounds, and process deep emotional truths, allowing you to live a more flexible, securely connected, and meaningful life.

I see clients in person in my clinic in Alon Shevut, as well as virtually on zoom.
