About Me


I am Bella, a Marriage and Family Therapist licensed to practice in Colorado (#0001466) and in California (#100030). 

I offer a safe, empathic and compassionate place for therapy to both individuals and families in the Boulder area.

I have been working closely and successfully with people from diverse ethnic, racial, religious, cultural and economic backgrounds and in a variety of settings. 

I have extensive experience helping my clients with wide range of concerns, including Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Grief and relationship issues. 

My therapeutic work is informed by my training in psychology as well as eastern spiritual traditions. I integrate contemporary psychological approaches as well as holistic, body-awareness, and mindfulness-based therapeutic orientations.

I incorporate various approaches in order to meet the needs and challenges of each of my clients. Every individual and every family is unique, and so I work collaboratively with clients to provide the best-individualized treatment plan. 
My work integrates a number of practices, based on client’s needs including CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, Family Systems, EFT for couples and family therapy and Psychodynamic. These styles of therapy are evidence Based and have been thoroughly researched and proven to be effective. 

Working with people is my passion. I develop authentic and honest connections with my clients and use my training and experience to help them get “unstuck”, move forward, and overcome the challenges they face in life. 

I hold a Masters in Counseling Psychology from Sofia University in Palo Alto, California and a Bachelor of Science in Mass Communication and Social Science from Bar Ilan University In Israel.

I offer services in English and in Hebrew.
