More Information on Services Offered

Walking Therapy

Walking therapy offers a unique solution for those seeking an alternative to the traditional clinic setting. Therapy in a natural, familiar environment helps you overcome the apprehension many people feel about entering the therapy clinic, and what's expected to happen there. Everything is done at a pace that suits you.

The activity of walking itself frees you from the pressure of direct eye contact, helping you share your feelings, express your emotions, process complex and distressing thoughts, and achieve emotional release.

Sessions take place in beautiful open spaces in Modiin - at Givat HaTitora, Anava Park, the southern hills, lookout points, community gardens for therapeutic gardening, Ben Shemen Forest, the petting zoo and/or other locations that suit your personal needs.

Wheelchair-accessible locations available, or sessions can be held at your home if there are physical or emotional challenges with going out.

Therapeutic Gardening

Gardening enables conversation while working in the garden, including an entire language of exploration and dialogue about questions like "what are my roots?" and "what's preventing me from growing?" - a powerful tool gaining momentum in Israel today.

Animal-Assisted Therapy

Therapy sessions incorporating animals, that help children, teens, and adults express themselves. Through caring for, feeding, and discussing the animal's world, opportunities open up for conversations about relationships in our own lives, for example, and much more. Also offering sessions to help children work on friendships, by inviting guests to sessions and creating positive experiences that can form the basis for the growth of friendship outside the therapy setting.
