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 to the panel [above] and click on Lectures (or ‘Audio’), you can find the topic (or ‘downloads’) which interests you.
I have retired from teaching in the Department of Psychology at Touro College in Jerusalem.
I taught Introduction to Psychology (101), Developmental Psych.(201), Social Psych.(102), Abnormal Psych.(335), Psychology of Religion (342) & Psychology and The Holocaust (541).
I now primarily only give guest lectures at Seminaries and Yeshivas upon request, and I also still see patients for counseling and/or psychotherapy.
I also teach a course “Symptomatic Psychology” at Ohr L’Golah at Ohr Somayach Yeshiva here in Jerusalem.
***************
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 &
- – (a ‘kosher form’ of) 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 395,-NIS; in US-dollars, it is cir. $120.00 per session.
My clinic-office is temporarily in transition.
