“Relationships where you feel seen and heard”

Verified by Kyan

About Sigal

I am a psychologist, a relationship and family therapist, and an IFS therapist. I work with individuals, couples, families and adolescents, including LGBTQ+ clients. People come to me with relationship challenges, including multicultural couple dynamics, and with anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, life transitions and emotional regulation. I also help with personal development and career, because I see career and personal life as wholly interconnected.

I was born in Israel and raised in Australia. At 18 I moved to London, where I studied and worked for nine years. I hold a B.Sc. Honours in Psychology from the University of Westminster (2003) and an M.Sc. in Organizational Psychology from City University London (2006). I made Aliyah in 2007. In 2015 I completed an Advanced Therapy Certificate in Relationship and Family Therapy at Tel Aviv University, and I have trained in Internal Family Systems. I have been in practice for 19 years. I see people at my clinics in Tel Aviv and Raanana, and online with clients worldwide. Sessions are in English or Hebrew.

I believe in relationships where people feel seen, heard and thus accepted for who and what they are. My therapeutic models help people connect to their inner power and build a fulfilling and meaningful life where all parts are welcome.

How Sigal works

Sessions are in English or Hebrew. I see people in person at my clinics in Tel Aviv and Raanana, and I see clients worldwide online. Phone sessions are also possible.

I am trained in Internal Family Systems, and I also work with emotion-focused therapy, family systems therapy and the Gottman Method. These models help people connect to their inner power and build a fulfilling and meaningful life where all parts are welcome. With couples and families I focus on relationship challenges, including multicultural couple dynamics. With individuals I work on personal development and on career, which I see as wholly interconnected with personal life.

A free 20-minute consultation is available online, in person or by phone.

Approaches

General information from Kyan about each method, not a description of how Sigal works.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

Internal Family Systems (IFS) sees the mind as made up of different “parts”, such as a part that worries, a part that protects or a part that feels hurt. Getting to know these parts with curiosity and compassion can ease inner conflict. The aim is a calmer, more balanced relationship with yourself.

Emotion-focused therapy (EFT)

Emotion-focused therapy (EFT) sees emotions as important guides that can be understood and changed. It helps you notice, name and work with feelings, including painful ones, so they become less overwhelming. It is also widely used with couples, to understand the emotional cycles between partners and build a closer bond.

Systemic & family therapy

Systemic and family therapy looks at difficulties in the context of the relationships around you: your family, partner, work or friends. Patterns between people, rather than one person alone, become the focus of the work. It can be used with individuals, couples and whole families.
