Hi! I'm Rivky, a licensed clinical social worker in Jerusalem, Israel.
I help people who are struggling with anxiety, depression, self esteem and other mental health issues. I specialize in helping people who have been through traumatic experiences, family dysfunction and other challenges. I believe in each individual's power to heal and that when trauma is processed properly it has the ability to make a person even more resilient.
​
Experiencing stress, anxiety and depression can feel debilitating; you are not alone. I offer guidance and support to deal with these situations and help clients incorporate and utilize therapeutic techniques and other tools in their personal and professional lives.
There is no one size fits all approach to therapy. That is why I am dedicated to creating a warm and compassionate space which speaks to each client individually. I use a variety of therapeutic models including CBT, Psychodynamic Therapy, IFS, Mindfulness and Somatic Experiencing.

Anxiety / Panic

Individual Therapy
If you are interested in individual therapy sessions I am happy to schedule a consultation phone call. Making the first call can be the hardest part, and I commend you on taking the first step to improve your life and wellbeing.
Teletherapy
Sometimes finding a therapist in your area that you can connect with can be challenging. That's why, In addition to in-person meetings, I offer sessions via Skype and phone.
Consultations
In addition to weekly therapy, I also offer consultations for family members and partners who are struggling with finding the right approach to relate to and understand their loved ones.
​
​
Group Sessions & Workshops
As a professional who has extensive experience working with students and young adults, I offer expertise and guidance through workshops to schools, seminaries, yeshivot and other organizations who are interested in expanding their toolkit to help those experiencing mental health issues and life challenges.
