About me
I was born in Israel and have been living in Berlin for the past 9 years with my partner and our children.
Alongside my work as a therapist, I have studied fine arts and I have experience as a tattoo artist. I have been deeply inspired by the powerful potential of tattoos in helping create a connection between the body and mind. For several years, I used tattooing as part of a therapeutic process for patients, helping them express and heal through art.
I discovered psychotherapy in my early twenties—an experience that has been profoundly healing and life-changing. Through this process, I reconnected with my body, learned the essence of self-love, rediscovered my sexuality, and developed healthier relationships with my partners, friends, and family.
My personal experiences as a survivor of abuse and someone who struggled with body image, eating disorders and being queer deeply inform my empathetic approach to therapy. I remember those complicated times very well, and I draw on this understanding to support my patients.

I hold a degree in clinical psychology with a focus on humanistic and feminist approaches.
