Micki Lavin-Pell, Marriage and Family Therapist/ Dating Coach Jerusalem, 93184, Israel IsraelI am a warm and empathic therapist who enables people to feel comfortable to share. I aim to create a safe space in order to enable couples to talk to each other so that they can understand one another better. This is often difficult for couples to do on their own because they often get caught up in the emotions. In my work with individuals I provide a space that enables them to be able to best reflect on what it is that they would like to achieve, whether it be with regards to relationships, their career, or any other life goal. I believe strongly in the idea that in order to be a great therapist one must constantly work on themselves. I therefore spend a significant amount of my time inves…

Shmuel Brodsky, Psy.D. Manhattan, NY 10001, USA Teaneck, NJ 07666, USAI take a very comprehensive approach. Part of the therapy is highly behavioral and results oriented, proceeding in a structured, step by step manner directly reducing anxiety, avoidance, compulsions, etc. The other part of the therapy is my getting to know the person very well, scientifically identifying pervasive behavioral patterns in their lives, and addressing issues that might be fueling the anxiety alone. I find this comprehensive approach results in the most complete and permanent results.

Dina Waxman, LCSW-R Brooklyn, NY 11230, USASocial Anxiety Social anxiety could be crippling. You’re sitting in a room full of people, or perhaps with just one other person, and you start to feel panicked, your words come out awkward and stilted and you wish you could crawl through a hole in the floor.

When your child was in the cradle, you spent a lot of time with her. She would call out to you and no matter what you were doing, you put everything else aside to spend time with her when she wanted you. You knew how much you meant to her and you were there for her.
Sadly, as infants grow into children and children into teenagers, many parents think they don’t mean that much to their children or teens any more. That is a m …

Sometimes names are assigned to us. Or numbers (noting the 75th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz death camp this …

The weed of crime bears bitter fruit; crime does not pay.
Who knew?
Actually, there’s not a shadow of a doubt that for many people crime does pay. That’s why there are so many crimes committed, because most of the time, crime pays. The perpetrator gets away with it.
What are the odds of getting caught? According to the FBI, not very high.
Let’s look at the numbers.
In 2017, violent crime resulted in an arrest 4 …
The last four long-term strategies for connecting with conscience are humility, learning from experience, self-examination and self-worth.
Conscience is the awareness that we are we are called by life. We are given a task by virtue of the situations we find ourselves in, moment by moment. These four strategies build a growing perceptiveness.
Humility brings the awareness that I am here for a reason that is not of my own making. Therefore, I can u …
Need for Control – Parshat Vayechi
