My career started in 1985 as a psychologist in the state of Israel, treating school children and their families and leading Gestalt groups for professionals.
In 1991 I moved to California and pursued a Ph.D. in clinical psychology at PGSP. I was trained as a pre-doc clinical psychologist at Stanford University Counseling and Psychological Services at Vaden Center and later as a post-doc at Kaiser Santa Clara. In both these places I also was employed as clinical psychologist post training.
My next career step was moving to a private practice in Palo Alto where I've now been practicing since 1998.
During the years 2002-2004 I taught an annual graduate course “Practicum II” at the Pacific Graduate School of Psychology in Palo Alto.
Since 2000, I've served as an individual and group supervisor for Stanford clinical trainees during their year of internship.
