Hi there! I'm Maor, and I'm a therapist who helps people get un-stuck. Living with Trauma, Addiction, or Anxiety can feel like we're lost. Things just don't make sense anymore. Maybe our life revolves around sadness and fear, and nothing we try seems to help. I get how painful that can be. You probably want to find a way to live life freely, fully, to not be consumed by that pain. I'm here to help you find that path. With compassion, curiosity, hope, and a healthy dose of humor, I use research-backed methods to help you overcome trauma, anxiety, or addiction. Let's bring back stability, confidence, meaning, & happiness to your life.

With years of front-line counselling, crisis, and addiction work, I’ve learned that real change comes when treatment is personalized. I believe that we all have the capacity to change, and therapy is about helping you see that, too. Using modern, science-based approaches, like IFS and Mindfulness, you'll safely and effectively let go of deep-seated pain.

Above all, I always work with you, never 'on you'. Therapy isn't about fitting you into a box, it's about finding what fits you. Your unique experiences, struggles, and strengths matter the most. By taking the time to understand you, we'll find what works and bring real, lasting change to your life. Visit my website to easily book your free consultation!
