“Avi helped me through the hardest point of my life and has been central in making me feel like myself again. After 3 years with Avi I can confidently say my mental state has never been better! I will always be grateful for the time we spent together and I am confident he can help others the way he helped me.”

“I have been working with Avi since June 2023, and I can honestly say that he has been an incredible support throughout my journey. He has helped me navigate and work through the trauma of my childhood, teenage years, and young adulthood, much of which I had spent years dismissing as ‘just things that happened’.
Avi has guided me through some very dificult situations with patience, understanding and genuine care. His compassion, insight and ability to create a safe space have made a profound difference in my life. I’m deeply grateful for everything he has helped me uncover and heal. I could not recommend him more highly.”

In working with Avi, I have developed a stronger sense of self. He has helped me not only identify past trauma but also work towards freeing me from the role that trauma plays in my everyday life. I have found him very easy to talk to and personable which has been essential in allowing me to open up in our sessions and dig deeper. His method focuses on giving an internal, visual representation to past traumatic events or emotions This has allowed me to interact and resolve issues related to those events and feelings. This approach is great to connect to these emotions in a more concrete way; by visualising how they look/ exist in myself, speaking directly to/ with them, rather than merely discussing them in conversation with a therapist. As a result, working with Avi has left me feeling internally more calm with a greater understanding of who I am and why I am so, as well as a sense of confidence and self assuredness.

“I started working with Avi over 12 months ago. Having done therapy with two previous psychotherapists spanning over 30 years, Avi is the first to address and explain deep rooted post-traumatic stress issues including both sexual and emotional abuse.
After each session using both kind yet firm analysis, I am beginning to confront and understand them.
If you are committed and sincere about addressing your problems, look no further.”

“I have had anxiety and depression for a very long time and have seen a great many mental health professionals and in my opinion Avi is the very best by far.
He is deeply intuitive and uses a number of techniques to enable healing. It feels like he is reaching into your very soul to find and understand the problem and then fix it.
I am still working with Avi on my childhood trauma issues (and some adult ones too), but already I am happier and more carefree than I have ever been in my life.
I highly recommend Avi to anyone looking for a rare, highly talented and extraordinary therapist.”
