Tanya Prochko Jerusalem, IsraelOne of the most important elements in successful therapy is feeling comfortable with your therapist; feeling connected and trusting that you are safe to uncover some of the deepest and perhaps painful parts of yourself. Not only does the client need to be ready for change, but the therapist has to be the right fit for the client in order for any kind of healing to take place. I take great care to build a trusting relationship with my clients and offer a free phone consultation to provide the opportunity for you to learn more about my therapeutic approach so you can get a better idea of what to expect before starting therapy.

Dear Therapist:
I am an older year old single bochur who is learning in yeshiva. I have been told I am picky, unable to make a commitment, lazy, unambitious and many other diagnoses and labels. Many people have suggested that I “speak to someone” (meaning a therapist) in order to resolve the major issues I must have if I am not married at the old age of 28. I think I have just not yet met the right person. Thoughts?

During the holidays, congregants increasingly seek out the counsel of their rabbis. The holidays are a time when many people feel genuinely inspired to make a special effort to be extra observant. It is also a time when people with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) are most likely to knock on the rabbi's door. How rabbis respond can make all the difference in whether religious OCD sufferers seek professional help, and in some cases, it can be a …

They understand the importance of fasting on Yom Kippur, but often have been on a challenging journey supporting their child in the process of healing from an eating disorder. Reco …
It was only the second generation of mankind, and already murder was introduced into the world. In the aftermath of a stunning act of fratricide, Kaayin is condemned to wander the earth in isolation (Na v’Nad: Na to wander and Nad to be isolated, shunned. See Rav Hirsch on Braishis 4:12).
But the Torah is terse in its description of the aftermath, and questions arise.
Kaayin responds by saying “great is my sin to bear.&rdq …
