Tanya received her post graduate training in mental health counseling from Fordham University in New York. After making Aliyah, in 2012, Tanya opened a private practice in Israel. Seeing a wide gap between the mental health needs of the Englishspeaking public and their ability to access help in their mother tongue, Tanya founded Get Help Israel - The Israel Association of Mental Health Professionals. Clients can now easily find private clinicians throughout Israel, as well as support groups, treatment facilities, psychiatric facilities, subsidized services, hotlines, and information on navigating the public mental health care system. For the professional members of the association, GHI serves as a formal framework for therapists in building and maintaining a successful private practice.
