I hold a Ph.D. in Developmental Psychology, a Masters degree Special Education and Educational Consulting, I am a psychotherapist practicing in the Jungian Analytical approach and I am certified in family and couples therapy. I have experience in research and treatment both in Israel and in the United States. For 15 years, I worked in a range of positions in the Ministry of Education’s psychology services, initially as a special needs teacher and later as an educational consultant. Later I worked in training and treatment in Jewish schools as well as mixed Jewish-Arab schools. I worked in a psychiatric ward at one of the largest hospitals in Israel in the family treatment center as well as at the Ministry of Education treatment center.
I am currently Assistant Professor and researcher in the Masters programs in Educational Counseling and Research and Evaluation at Beit Berl College. My fields of research and interest are a combination of special education and educational counseling, focusing on perspectives regarding marginalized members of society (specifically people with disabilities) and their integration into society. In addition, my research deals with Jewish-Arab encounter in education counselor training. I am interested in various aspects of training as well as professional development in the area of education counseling and psychotherapy.
