As a human being rooted in an ancient spiritual tradition and people and with a background in physical and social sciences, and as a trauma specialist trained in clinical and somatic approaches, I draw from various modalities, helping my client to nurture healing wisdom within. My orientation is to support personal healing, natural reconnection with internal, organic vitality, harmony, and intuition.
My life-long interest in understanding the human experience of brokenness and well-being for individuals and collectives led me to study various languages and disciplines including Physics, Sociology, Philosophy, Women’s Studies, Peace Studies, and to immerse deeply in Jewish tradition as a scholar, practitioner, and nurturer. I interweave insights and practices from all these human endeavors to enrich my understanding of how we can live with meaning, wholeness, and joy even in a world of brokenness.
My private practice in counseling (English & Hebrew) blossomed out of my spiritual practice and my work in the community, as people gravitated to this mindful, compassionate approach to an integrated spiritual and somatic practice.
Spiritual traditions mobilize healers, rituals, wisdom, and community to facilitate healing, and contemporary psychotherapy proffers specialists, exercises, research, and support groups. In my experience, an integrative therapeutic approach drawing upon all of these sources enhances coherence for body, mind, and spirit, as trauma is resolved.
