Shalom ! I am aprivate therapist (MSW) working with clients in a warm, empathetic and supportive environment .Welcome!

About Me

I welcome you to a warm, empathetic, and supportive environment where you can openly explore your thoughts. As a private therapist with an MSW, I create a safe space for genuine conversation and self-discovery. We can work together to understand challenges and find paths towards greater well-being. This approach is ideal for anyone seeking a compassionate guide to navigate life's complexities.

Approach

Shalom — sessions feel like a calm, steady space where we move at your pace, notice patterns, and name what matters most to you. In Tel Aviv or online, in Hebrew or English, I match a gentle rhythm of focused listening, short mindfulness exercises and practical steps you can try between meetings. Together we track mood shifts, gently challenge anxious habits, and adapt tools to your daily life so progress is tangible. This way of working often fits adults seeking clear, compassionate collaboration.
