ABOUT

I am a New York State Licensed Clinical Marriage & Family Therapist with over 25 years experience in the mental health field. I have dealt with multicultural and varied populations ranging from preschool through adulthood. In Israel I am primarily seeing individuals and couples with regard to premarital counseling, relationship issues, remarriages, and family dynamics. My training stems from a family systems approach with post graduate training in Attachment Theory and multiple losses. I therefore involve the whole family unit and apply eclectic modalities to meet the customized needs and nature of my clients. I assist my clients in tapping into their inner strengths and maximize their potential to work with their chronic and sudden onset issues. As a result I have seen and marveled at many of my clients resilience and growth despite their depression, anxiety, losses, and complexities. I often use a behavioral approach as well as mindfulness to bring my clients to a present state of thoughtfulness and awareness of who they are and who they can become. As a result of my training with Gottman and Imago, I have developed my own style with couples which I have found to be both beneficial and rewarding.
