Narrative Therapy

“What is Narrative Therapy?”, you may wonder.

Narrative Therapy is based on a growing set of ethically based and innovative therapy ideas that recognize that people use narrative, or story, to make meaning out of their lives and to form their identity.  Often, without even realizing it, people get stuck in problems because they are living according to stories that are saturated by problems.  However life is multi-faceted and multi-storied, and there will always be exceptions to the problem stories.

I offer a gentle and in depth exploration of the stories of your life, and help you to find those hidden stores of strength, possibilities, richer understanding, and hope. I strive to ask questions to facilitate a meaningful conversation of re-authoring your life according to your values, beliefs, dreams, and visions.  I place you as the expert of your own life, and strive to work as collaborative partners exploring your preferred life goals in order to help you to realize those goals.

Based on the ideas of Narrative Therapy, I engage in therapeutic dialogues, which respect the values and goals of each client.  I offer a gentle exploration of your life and the way you would like to live it.  I work in English or Hebrew. My goal is to work as collaborative partners exploring the preferred life goals of the client.

I work under the Halachic guidance of Rabbi Ze’ev Leff, and under the psychiatric guidance of Dr. Hillel Davis.
