About Me

Hi! I’m Noam (he/they). I became a therapist after a life spent curious about how people process the world through emotions. Connecting with people about their emotional experience has always felt like the most natural way for me to be.

I've spent a lot of time thinking about what healthy masculinity can look like, and more broadly, how all kinds of power dynamics show up in personal relationships and society at large. In the therapy room, I bring curiosity and openness to discussing power and systems of oppression. 

My training is in Gestalt therapy, which means I'm oriented around what's happening in the present moment rather than constructing explanations from a distance. In practice, we might talk something through, notice what's coming up in your body, or stay with something that's hard to name. I try to meet you where you are, without imposing a predetermined shape on your experience.

As a therapist, I try to create a warm and non-judgemental space; I'm generally comfortable sitting with hard emotions, and I don't feel a need to move past them quickly. I tend to be steady and fairly active: I'll name something if it feels important, and I'm interested in working with patterns as they come up rather than only discussing them afterward.
