Dear Therapist:
I’m currently engaged, and baruch Hashem things seem to be going very well.
At the same time, I hear people say that these days many don’t really understand what makes a marriage work, and that there are misconceptions that only become clear later on.
Everything feels good now, but I’m aware that engagement is not the same as real life. I’m trying to go in with open eyes and realistic expecta …
Dear Therapist:
I’m a single girl and trying to make the most of this stage of life, but it’s not always easy. There are times I feel fine and busy, and other times I feel anxious, lonely, or just stuck.
I want to be able to live a full life now and not feel like I’m just waiting for the next stage. At the same time, it’s hard not to compare myself to others or feel left behind.
What are some practical ways to live fully d …
Dear Therapist:
I teach 10th grade and have a student who is a sweet, good boy, but struggles with learning.
The challenge is that he is very inflexible. Once he makes up his mind, he will not change it, even when it is clearly not working. It is almost impossible to reason with him, and any attempt to talk it through turns into a shutdown or argument.

When we were able to speak with the therapist at the time, we were told her commitment was not really there.
Now she is home fr …
Dear Therapist:
I teach in a mesivta for boys who have struggled in the past. I have a talmid who is a good boy with real potential.
He is always starting something big. He’ll decide he’s waking up at 5:00 a.m. to run, or taking on an intense learning schedule, or some ambitious new goal. It sounds impressive, but it never lasts. After a short time, he burns out and feels down, and then another big plan takes its p …
Dear Therapist:
Every year after Purim I find myself thinking the same thing. When I drink a little, I feel like my real personality comes out. I’m more relaxed, more open, funnier, more confident. I talk more easily and feel less in my head.
The next day, I always feel a little unsettled. Not because I did anything terrible, but because I wonder why I can’t be that way the rest of the year. Normally I’m more reserved and overth …
