Children
I help a child feel understood — and find the words, or a way, to work through what's inside. Through talking, play, and work with parents.
How I help
- Psychotherapy
- Play therapy
- Anxiety & fears
- Self-esteem
- School adjustment
Help shaped around your childand around what the whole family is carrying
Families come to me with all sorts of things — worry, behaviour, school, a diagnosis. I listen to you first, then we decide where to begin. I work with children, teenagers and parents in Rishon LeZion, in person and online.
Who I help
The easiest place to start is whatever feels closest to your family. Find yourself here — I'll match the kind of help to the situation.
Teenagers
A space where a teen isn't judged. We work through stress, mood, relationships and questions of identity — at their pace.
How I help
- Counseling
- Psychotherapy
- Stress & mood
- Identity
- Relationships
Parents & caregivers
You can come without your child. I help parents understand what is happening, respond with more confidence, and make room for their own emotional needs too.
How I help
- Parent training
- Psychological counseling
- Psychotherapy
- Family support
Autism & neurodevelopment
Assessment and steady support for autism, ADHD and learning differences — with attention to a child's strengths, not just the diagnosis.
How I help
- Autism assessment
- Attention assessment
- Social skills
- Learning support
Behavioural problems
Aggression, outbursts and defiance are rarely 'just character'. I work with both the child and the parents, so home feels calmer again.
How I help
- Behavioural support
- Parent guidance
- Emotional regulation
- Family work
The kinds of help I offer
Four ways of working. Which one fits you usually becomes clear after the first conversation.
You do not need to choose a format before you contact me. We begin with the difficulty, then decide what kind of support makes sense.
Parent guidance
Coaching and concrete, usable tools for parenting and everyday behaviour. This is work with you, not therapy for the child.
Psychotherapy
Individual therapy for children and teens — for anxiety, low mood, trauma, and difficulties with self-esteem and emotions.
Psychological counseling
Shorter, focused help with a specific difficulty, life transition or crisis — for teenagers and families.
Assessment & diagnosis
Formal, report-backed evaluations accepted by schools, committees and health funds.
What families come to me with
Grouped by the kind of support they usually call for.
Neurodevelopment
- Autism / ASD
- ADHD
- Learning difficulties
Behaviour
- Behaviour & ODD
- Aggression & outbursts
- School refusal & bullying
Anxiety & mood
- Anxiety, phobias & OCD
- Depression & trauma
- Emotional regulation
Family & transitions
- Family & divorce transitions
- Social skills
- Russian-speaking families
Autism (ASD) and ADHD
Autism and ADHD are central areas of my work. I combine careful assessment with practical, ongoing support for the child, parents and school.
Autism spectrum (ASD)
I assess the child's developmental profile and support communication, social skills, emotional regulation and everyday adaptation — always with attention to the child's strengths.
ADHD & attention
I evaluate attention and concentration difficulties and help children and families build realistic strategies for learning, behaviour, organization and confidence.
