I am (still) truly sorry that I am unable to conduct tours through Yad VaShem, however if you still would like to arrange a “pre-seminar” before going out to Yad VaShem, please do not hesitate to contact me by phone or email to set this up; see below for contact numbers.

This coming Winter Semester (beginning Oct. 30th) 2011, I am scheduled to teach three courses at Touro College here in Jerusalem the following courses:

- PSY-541: Psychology of the Holocaust {women},

- PSY-101: Introduction to Psychology {women} &

- PSY-201: Developmental 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

- Depression

- ADD & ADHD

- Anorexia

- Bi-Polar Disorder

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 320,-NIS, which is 275,-NIS plus 16% MAM; in US-dollars it is cir. $80 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).
