FREE EMOTIONAL SUPPORT AT TIME OF WAR
About our services
During this time of national crisis, Get Help Israel - The Israel Association of Mental Health Professionals established a program to assist the people in Israel who are affected emotionally and psychologically by the current war. The professionals who are providing therapeutic services have all been vetted, with post-graduate qualifications and experience in treating trauma, anxiety, sleep issues, and more.
INDIVIDUAL SUPPORT
Within 24 hours, you will be connected with a therapist to help you process the emotional effects of the current war. It%27s common to experience disruptions in your daily life during such times, like difficulty focusing and performing your regular tasks. You might also notice war-related symptoms such as sleep problems, nightmares, or increased anxiety. You can now receive one on one free support from a therapist for any issue related to the current war.
If you are returning from IDF service, you are eligible to receive subsidized trauma therapy through GHI%27s non-profit organization: The Get Help Israel Fund. Please email [email protected] to request this service.
Therapy is available in multiple languages, including English, Hebrew, Russian, French, Yiddish, Spanish, and Dutch.
This program is set up as a service that connects clients with therapists for free emotional support. Therapeutic services are offered by clinicians through their private practice.
