Jewish
Mental Health
I am active member of several Jewish mental healh organizations and have been volunteering with the National Association of Social Worker’s Special Interest Group to Combat Antisemitism. The mission is to provide support, encourage research and education, and address the rising tide of antisemitism.
I am also a member of the Association of Jewish Psychologists and serve on the committee of the Jewish Social Work Consortium, a network of social work leaders committed to advancing Jewish cultural competence and advocacy in the field. I also serve as Program Director for Kesher Shalom Projects, where I co-lead workshops, develop educational programming, and provide training to strengthen Jewish cultural competence and advocacy in the field. It is my mission to improve Jewish mental health through trauma-informed treatment that incorporates a lens of Jewish cultural competency. By centering Jewish values and lived experience, I strive to cultivate greater connection, resiliences, and healing.
