I no longer conduct tours through Yad VaShem, however I still give lectures about the Holocaust (“G-d Didn’t Die in Auschwitz” – Answering the Question: Where was G-d in the Holocaust?) as well as other topics; so, if you go over to the left-hand panel and click on lectures (or ‘Tapes’), you can find the topic (or ‘download’) which interests you.
This Spring Semester 2013, I am scheduled to teach two courses at Touro College here in Jerusalem the following courses:
- PSY-342: Psychology of Religion {women},
- PSY-335: Abnormal Psychology {men}.
For more information, see: http://www.touroisrael.org/
The option to audit these & other courses without credit still allows many people to participate in these very interesting subjects at a fraction of the regular full-credit cost. Please call the Touro’s main office (02-651-0090, ext. 1) for more information about these and other courses.
Regarding my therapy sessions in my clinic, I am a CBT (Cognitive-Behavioral Therapist). I practice Brief Therapy, which means, in fact, working quickly and, chalila, not ‘stringing sessions out. I only do 'individual sessions' even when I do marriage and family counseling.
I use as my diagnostic paradigm:
- “Eric Erickson’s 8-Stages of PsychoSocial Development”,
- Aaron Beck’s Cognitive Therapy &
- Albert Ellis’ REBT {Rational, Emotive, Behavioral Therapy}.
I have had very good success treating:
- OCD (Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder)
- Phobias
- UniPolar Depression
- Generalized Anxiety Disorder (G.A.D.)
- ADD & ADHD
- Anorexia
- Bi-Polar Depression
- Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
and even ...
- Asthma &
- Sciatica (Lower Back Pain)
Although I am known as an orthodox rabbi, I take a purely non-judgmental approach to my patients. People who come to see me, no matter what malady or disorder, are simply people in pain; it is my job to help alleviate that pain and, hopefully, in a permanent way.
My sessions are 1 hour & 20 minutes (80mins.) long and I charge 350,-NIS, which is 299,-NIS plus 17% MAM; in US-dollars it is cir. $93.85 per session.
My office is located in the Shadar Medical Center at 8 Yoel St. (right next to the Satmar Beis Medresh, parallel to Yecheskel St. & just down from Meah Shaarim Street).
