Hi, I’m Maor Bernshtein, and I know how tough it can be to take the first step toward getting help. That’s why I approach therapy as a genuine partnership—where we work together to uncover what’s really going on and how to move forward. I believe in thinking outside the box because no two people are the same, and neither should therapy be. While I use evidence-based modalities in my practice, I'll never try to fit you into a box. Therapy should fit you, not the other way around. I specialize in Addictions, Trauma, Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), Anxiety, and Depression. But I know a diagnosis is only a small part of the bigger picture—you are so much more than that. My goal is to make sure every session feels like a place where you can bring your full self, no judgment, no special requirements. You just need to come, as you are. Together, we’ll work on practical and introspective ways to find stability, heal emotional difficulties, and reclaim the parts of you that may feel lost. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of the next step, let’s connect. You don’t have to navigate this alone—reach out when you’re ready, and we’ll figure it out, together. Text, call, or email me to schedule your free consultation.
