Israela Holtzman
Clinical Psychotherapist, MEd, LMHC
Couple and Individual Therapy.
Practice in Newton and Sharon Massachusetts.
Therapy is about helping you make the changes you desire. Get the help you need to have the life you want because you deserve to be happy. I see therapy as a collaborative effort to not only alleviate current distress but to enrich one's overall quality of life.
Whether you're struggling with feelings of depression and anxiety, or relationship issues, psychotherapy can be an individual tool on your journey to personal growth.
I am a licensed Mental Health counselor therapist, with a private practice in Newton Center. I have 20 years of experience working with individuals and couples.
I provide psychotherapy to individuals and couples who are dissatisfied with their life or/and interpersonal relationships and who aspire to lead a more meaningful life. Through the development of a therapeutic relationship, I will guide and help you make the kind of changes that will lead to you breaking psychological barriers and overcoming obstacles that you regain control over your life and reach self-empowerment.
I offer a warm, supportive, nurturing, and non-judgmental, therapeutic environment. I invite you to email or call me, and schedule an app so that we can see if we are a good fit for one another.
I am now accepting new clients - individuals and couples - and am offering online video sessions via Zoom.
I am fluent in English and Hebrew.

Individual Therapy
I help clients define how they want their lives to be different and identify the steps that will help them reach their goals.

The emotional toll of a divorce can be particularly difficult for women who deal with a certain set of challenges - financial insecurity, potentially re-entering the job market, and juggling the responsibilities of children and career.
