OUR APPROACH
A NEW EMOTIONAL MODEL.
SHLAVIM IS THE ONLY ORGANIZATION OF ITS KIND IN ISRAEL, BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN THE YESHIVA/SEMINARY WORLD AND THE WORLD OF PROFESSIONAL THERAPY. WE WORK TOGETHER WITH THE INSTITUTIONS AND HAVE A CADRE OF PROFESSIONAL THERAPISTS AND OTHER TREATMENT PROVIDERS WHO CAN BECOME LISTENERS, GUIDES AND SAVIORS. OUR ROLE IS TO MONITOR PROGRESS, COORDINATE AND COMMUNICATE WITH ALL PARTIES – CHILD, PARENTS, THERAPISTS, TEACHERS – AND MAKE SURE THE PROCESS IS WORKING AND MOVING FORWARD.
WE OFFER MULTI-FACETED, LONG-TERM EMOTIONAL HEALTH SOLUTIONS.
WHATEVER THE CHILD NEEDS, AND HOWEVER LONG THEIR JOURNEY, SHLAVIM IS THERE FOR THEM.
OUR APPROACH IS NON-AGENDA BASED.
WE SEEK THE PROPER APPROACH AND THE MOST SUITABLE THERAPIST FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL RATHER THAN IMPOSE A PARTICULAR METHOD ON EVERY STUDENT.
