Are today’s stresses intensifying old problems or bringing up new ones?
- Are you confused about how to survive and thrive in these difficult times?
- Are you struggling with strains in your marriage?
- Are you overwhelmed with parenting issues?
Julie Hirschfeld, Ph.D. provides skilled, empathic care, using the latest neuroscience and building on your strengths to help you learn new ways to cope with today’s stresses. You can feel stronger and more confident as an individual, as a partner, and as a parent.
Feel Better
Your mood and confidence can be affected by past events and current stress, leading to depression, anxiety, sleeplessness, isolation. I offer support for dealing with difficult experiences. You can gain greater self-awareness, healthier coping strategies, and greater calm and connection.
Love Better
How’s your love life in lockdown? Are you having the same arguments over and over, feeling more distant even when spending more time together? Are your emotional intimacy and sexuality fading? I can help you get unstuck, learn better communication skills, address conflict productively, and establish healthier boundaries and behavior patterns. Couple therapy can transform your relationship, creating more positive energy and more deeply rewarding interaction.
Parent Better
Parents often wonder if they are doing the right thing for their child. How do we handle the big goals– fostering love, respect, resilience, self-care, and academic engagement– while managing hectic day-to-day life? Generic books and blog advice don’t address the specific needs of your child and family.
Parents need solid information, a chance to clarify their own values and desires for their kids, and skills for parenting together. As co-author of “Business Dad: How Good Businessmen Can Make Great Fathers” (1998), I help fathers and mothers improve their parenting teamwork.
Live Better
What’s holding you back from pursuing your goals for your health, relationships, professional life, or personal interests? Do old habits or unresolved issues make it hard to grow? Do you have questions about personal or career development? Together we can explore and conquer the obstacles to your better life.
Become Better
Do you ever wonder about your goals and purpose in life? Do you have spiritual questions or aspects of your character you’d like a chance to work on? I am trained in spiritually oriented psychotherapy and the Jewish wisdom tradition of Mussar, a method of spiritual character development. I work with clients from across the religious spectrum on questions of identity, holiness, character, and purpose.
