About the Therapist
I am a relational psychotherapist specializing in attachment and the complexities of human connection. Relationships are central to our psychological and emotional well-being. They shape our sense of safety, belonging, and identity, and serve as a powerful mirror for how we experience ourselves within various relationships in our lives.
My work focuses on helping clients develop a more authentic sense of self, strengthen their voice, and move out of painful relational patterns. Such patterns may include a strong need for external validation, heightened reactivity, personalizing others’ behavior, people-pleasing, perfectionism, chronic overachieving, and difficulties with boundaries. Using an attachment-informed lens, I support clients in understanding and healing the underlying wounds that drive these patterns, enabling them to reshape their relationships to be more peaceful and authentic.
My Approach to Helping
My approach is warm, engaged, and collaborative. I am an active therapist who works thoughtfully and intentionally, helping clients gain insight while also developing practical tools they can use in daily life.
I draw from a range of evidence-based modalities, including somatic psychotherapy, EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), midnfulness, attachment-based work, and polyvagal-informed interventions. As an integrative psychotherapist, I tailor the approah to each client’s needs and goals.
I view healing through a holistic lens, recognizing the connection between mind, body, and spirit. When it feels relevant, we may talk about how everyday lifestyle choices, including nutrition, movement, and personal spiritual practices, can support your emotional well-being and complement the work we do together.
When helpful, I may offer optional practices or reflections between sessions to support your weekly progress.
Specific Issues I'm Skilled at Helping With
My areas of focus include:
- Trauma, including PTSD, C-PTSD, and early developmental and attachment-related trauma
- Anxiety, chronic worry, and emotional overwhelm
- Self-esteem / self-worth
- Relationship challenges, including boundaries, attachment patterns, and communication
- Life transitions, identity shifts, and aging-related concerns
- Stress related to high achievement, responsibility, or caregiving roles
My Role as a Therapist
I work actively and collaboratively with my clients, offering psychoeducation and integrating behavioral, emotional, and somatic tools to expand your internal resources.
Together, we identify patterns that may no longer serve you and develop new ways of relating to yourself and others.
Sometimes, therapy is the only hour in the week that's entirely yours - a space where you can slow down, be fully yourself, and focus on what you need. In a life that often asks so much of us, that dedicated time can be incredibly healing.
Additional Information About my Practice
My practice is located on King David Street and is easily accessible by public transportation. I offer sessions both in person and online.
As the founder and director of Get Help Israel, I’m connected to a wide network of trusted professionals and, when helpful, can refer clients to colleagues who provide additional support as part of a collaborative approach to care.
If you’re considering therapy and wondering whether this might be a good fit, I invite you to reach out for a complimentary phone consultation.
