Hebrew Therapists in Salinas, CA

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...

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.

Hello, and welcome. I have been practicing clinical psychology for almost 35 years, and am currently working primarily with clients struggling with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. I treat adults and teenagers, and I especially enjoy working with college students. While I have extensive experience using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) I find that my clients are responding best to Inference Based CBT (ICBT), a relatively new modality in which I have received extensive training. My style is warm, inviting, and collaborative.

If you or someone you care about are going through a difficult time and need help, guidance, and support, or feeling anxious, stuck, depressed, confused or lost, then give me a call. It is not always easy to ask for help and for what you need, particularly when you don't know the therapist and at times don't know what you need or can't put it into words. It takes courage and strength to make this first step and reach out to ask for help. I am a licensed, seasoned, compassionate psychotherapist, and I would be honored to work with you, so you don't have to do it all alone.

I am a licensed psychotherapist with over 30 years of experience in Psychotherapy, Relationship/Marriage Counseling and Organizational Development and Transformation. Before becoming a licensed psychotherapist, I was a wooden boatbuilder, USCG Licensed Captain, businessman and educator. I still am. Over the years, a diverse spectrum of individuals, couples and groups have arrived in my practice with an equally diverse spectrum of challenges …some common …some not so common. We have worked on them together, usually with satisfying success for all concerned.

When approached with integrity, compassion, curiosity and care, psychotherapy can be profoundly transformative and healing. It can help you traverse uncertainty, discover what nourishes and sustains you, and deepen your experience of your world. Though at times elusive, the answers you seek are within; personally, professionally, spiritually. I am deeply dedicated to helping you bridge the corridor between where you are and where you long to be. Together we will work to understand what truly matters to you so that you can live a richer, happier, more satisfying life.

Do you find yourself playing out the same self sabotaging patterns and feel frustrated to break them? Do you have trouble in your relationships, wanting connection yet feeling lonely? Do you resort to alcohol or drugs and it's becoming a problem? Does it feel like parts of you are in conflict and out of your control? If you could figure it out logically you would have already. These patterns may feel mysterious to you but what if these parts of yourself have good intentions and are just stuck trying to help. In therapy we can break these painful patterns by healing the underlying issues and giving you freedom and peace inside.

Finding the right therapist is not an easy task, especially when you are in a vulnerable spot in your life. You might have some hesitations about opening up to a person you don't know. Take the time to explore different options and make sure that you land with a person that feels safe for you. Because when there is safety- there is healing. My hope for my clients is that they feel seen, heard, and understood, so they can start making sense of what's not working for them, and work with me on how they want their life to look like. It's never easy! but it's very rewarding.

I became a therapist because I believe in making the world a better place, helping one person at a time.

My therapy style includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Solution Focused, culturally sensitive, Family Systems, grief, humanistic, integrative, interpersonal, life coaching, multicultural, person-centered, reality therapy, Strength-Based, and Trauma-Focused.
