I am passionate about helping deep feelers and thinkers (from children to adults) live a life of meaning and fulfillment by: learning strategies on how to manage emotions, cope with existential dread, navigate changing relational roles and identities, and build resiliency during times of uncertainty and stress. My empathetic nature plays a role in my therapeutic style.

מרבית הישראלים שפונים אליי לטיפול נמצאים בסיטואציית חיים חדשה. מרגשת אבל לא בהכרח פשוטה. המעבר מהארץ, עבודה חדשה, סביבה חדשה, ניתוק פיזי מהחברים והמשפחה בארץ, עלולים להכאיב ולגרום למתחים וחרדה. הרצון לנצל את ההזדמנויות שנפתחו כאן, להינות ולהרוויח מהמקום החדש יכול להוסיף לחץ וליצור הרגשה של חוסר יציבות. הנסיבות שמובילות כל אחד ואחת מאיתנו לחפש עזרה ו/או תמיכה הן מורכבות ואישיות, אבל לרוב ישנה הרגשה שקיים פער בין הרצוי למצוי. הפער הזה מכאיב ומערער, ולא תמיד מובן כיצד נוצר או איך ניתן להיפטר ממנו או לפחות להקטין אותו. הפער יכול להיות קשור לתחומי חיים שונים: מערכות יחסים, עבודה, הורות, מימוש עצמי או משהו אחר.

I am fluent in spoken Hebrew, having lived in Israel for 9 years. However, I learned Hebrew in an Ulpan (Kibbutz Revivim), and therefore am weak on the read and written side... I have worked with numerous Israelis along my career of almost 30 years. My aproach is called "eclectic" but mostly cognitive, which assumes that most of our psychological troubles stem from how we think and how we see/relate to the world around us. Revising and updatind these mostly unconscious processes once in a while can turn out to be quite useful...

We crave to find peace, self love and love from others. Healing starts with our relationship, client and therapist.
