As children, we are learning from interactions with our parents who we are and how to fit into the world around us. After we leave home, we become our own parents as we continue to learn about ourselves and how to find our own place in life. And when we have families of our own, we are now parents both for our children and for ourselves, as we continue to understand more about who we are. I provide a warm, empathic and accepting environment where you can explore your current life challenges, as well as address past issues that impact your everyday life.
As a psychotherapist with more than 30 years of experience in the Ukraine, Israel and United States, I utilize an integrated approach, drawing from the best aspects of many different psychotherapeutic "orientations", with emphasis on self-psychology. I provide either short or long-term therapy.
My professional and personal experience makes me uniquely qualified to help bilingual couples and families, recent immigrants as well as foreign professionals and students to cope with multi-cultural and adjustment issues, immigration and acculturation stress, emotional disturbances and identity problems. I also have extensive experience in treatment victims of terrorist attacks.
