Jewish Therapists in Las Vegas, NV

Struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship (or other life) issues is challenging - and can become overwhelming for some of us. One of the most important things you can do for yourself is allow a professional to help. So congratulations for taking that first step and looking for the right therapist! Our clinic prides itself on providing skilled, compassionate therapy that promotes a swift improvement in mood and relationship issues.

At times in our lives, we may be presented with challenges in which professional assistance can help us to overcome those obstacles. The first & perhaps the hardest step is asking for help. Therapy provides a safe place to unlearn who we were conditioned to be. I believe that this experience offers us freedom, which comes from healing our wounds & learning to feel more comfortable being our authentic selves. Through challenging & changing negative thoughts, feelings, and actions, an individual can change their view on internal & external stressors. Thus assisting in achieving treatment goals & increasing life satisfaction.

Over the past 15 years, I have had the honor of supporting clients of all ages, from all walks of life as they build the life they have always dreamed about.

You deserve to live a life full of self-understanding, meaningful connection, and stability. Dealing with internal chaos during major life changes such as pregnancy, birth, and loss can feel isolating. This is especially true when these experiences are overthrown with mental health struggles. Moments of the past may be showing up in the present, leaving you overwhelmed and drained.

Do you want results? Are you finding that you keep getting in your own way? That your emotions, trauma, pain, past experiences and anxiety are preventing you from living the life you are meant to live? Or perhaps things are just not clicking no matter how hard you try? The good news is that there is always a way, a technique or perspective that can and will shift you and your life. The catch? You need to be willing to step into the unknown and get uncomfortable.

When we live our lives in a state of constant fight-or-flight, we can go into survival mode. Worries, phobias, panic attacks, trauma, obsessive thoughts, avoidant behavior, and/or repetitive/compulsive behaviors can make us feel hopeless and helpless. We can find ourselves overthinking, overanalyzing, and feeling powerless. If you're feeling like life hasn't been moving in a positive direction, find yourself in a state of hypervigilence due to trauma and/or frozen by fears and uncertainty, you CAN find your way out - sometimes we just need some extra support to do so.

Do you find yourself struggling with feelings of disconnection from yourself and others? Are you constantly prioritizing the needs of others over your own, leaving your own well-being at the bottom of your to-do list? Do you wonder if life should feel happier and more fulfilling? Now more than ever, many people are experiencing anxiety, overwhelm, and uncertainty about how to navigate their relationships, careers, and overall lives. Ignoring your own needs and neglecting self-care can lead to long-term issues for both your mental and physical health. However, living a better life shouldn't feel like such a challenge.

Have you ever wondered why a relationship didn’t work out or why you conflict with a partner? Have you ever wanted to break the cycle of past behaviors and figure out why it happened to begin with?

I specialize in treating an unrecognized condition in mental health: trauma. If you suffer from chronic depression or anxiety, undiagnosed trauma might be the reason why previous therapy has not worked for you.

I will also work with you to establish and achieve treatment goals that based on meaningful behavioral changes.

Being seen and valued for who we truly are, particularly in a space free of judgment, bias, and pretense, is an incredible feeling. When we feel safe to be ourselves, peace and healing naturally follow. From there, we can blossom, grow, and thrive! It often takes that feeling of safety and security for the truest parts of ourselves to be free to emerge. The essence of therapy lies in the therapeutic relationship and the sense of safety that comes with it. Knowing that you are in a space where your confidence is kept, your story is protected, and your whole person is viewed with loving kindness allows for growth.
