Therapy in Hebrew

There's something specific that happens when you try to talk about difficult things in a language that isn't quite yours. You find the words, but they don't carry the full weight. You explain, but something gets lost. The emotional precision that comes naturally in Hebrew, the particular way certain feelings, relationships or experiences are held in that language and culture can feel hard to access in English.

​

It doesn't have to be that way.

​

I'm a London-based counsellor and psychotherapist with native-level Hebrew. I work with Hebrew speakers from across the community: Israelis living in London, people from the wider Jewish diaspora, and anyone for whom Hebrew is the language of home, family or inner life.

​

You might be coming to therapy because of:

• Living between cultures: belonging fully to neither, negotiating both

• Family relationships conducted in Hebrew, where the emotional history lives in that language

• Identity questions connected to your background, heritage, or relationship to Jewishness

• Anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, or life transitions and a preference to explore them in Hebrew

• Isolation that comes from living far from the people and places that know you best

Or it might simply be that you want to start therapy in Hebrew, and that's reason enough.

​

My approach is warm, relational and non-judgmental. I draw on person-centred and psychodynamic thinking, which means we take time to understand not just what's happening now, but how your history and relationships continue to shape the present. My practice is inclusive and affirming of all identities and backgrounds.

​

I work in person in London at London Bridge (SE1) and Golders Green (NW11), and online with Hebrew-speaking clients across the UK.

Ready to talk?

I offer a free 20-minute introductory call, in Hebrew or English, whichever feels right. It's a chance to talk about what's bringing you to therapy and see whether we feel like a good fit.
