About

Ayelet Shmuel, LCSW, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a psychotherapist. My name is Ayelet Shmuel, I am a Toshav Chozer, a returning citizen of Israel. I lived and practiced psychotherapy in Denver Colorado and now, offering my services in Israel. My credentials and education include: LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker. MSW - Maters degree in Social Work, Denver Colorado. BA in Jewish Philosophy – Tel Aviv University. A mediation Certificate – Tel Aviv University. Applied Existential Therapy certification – Boulder Colorado. CFI - Child and Family Investigator, servicing as the arm of the courts in Denver, dealing with high conflict divorces and complex familial situations. A parenting coach certificate - Love and Logic Institute. I also bring to the table my 10 years experience in education (as a former teacher) and 4 years experience as an officer in the Israeli army. I use various modalities and theories in my work, and in addition to the traditional therapeutic setting, I offer my clients an opportunity to explore their challenges and life journey by going for walks together, listening to their favorite music, bringing in art, family albums, etc. Since the client-therapist relationship is extremely important to the success of the process, I encourage people to choose well; take your time during the initial consolation meeting to make sure that you "click" with the therapist. I have a lot of experience working with individuals, couples, and families on various issues such as mental illnesses, communication skills, grief and loss, self-esteem and social problems. Feel free to contact me for any questions. Change is just a phone call away :) The most exciting thing about therapy is when changes occur, they are visible and very helpful in the day to day function of the client. The client’s motivation, courage and hard work combined with the therapist's guidance and empathy can produce wonderful results. I offer a free, 45 minutes, initial consultation session
