Hadassah Johanna Hazan - Therapist - Clinical MSW LCMSW specialising in attachment & relational trauma, sexual trauma, self esteem and body image

I specialise in working with attachment and relational issues (disrupted attachment in childhood, sexual trauma (both from a long time ago and more recent), and the plethora of reasons people can struggle with self-love, self-acceptance and connecting to others. I have worked for nearly a decade in the field of eating disorder and body image difficulties, and also with people struggling with aspec

ts of their identity such as sexuality, religious or spiritual shifts and major life transitions. I love and utilise both Narrative Therapy and IFS, as well as tools from CBT and DBT, however I believe the most powerful interventions come from authentic human connection and approach treatment to each of my clients individually. I have previously worked as a therapist at Milam, working with family systems affected by serious mental illness; and as Assistant Director of Mental Health at Jewessence, a residential program for young women from Ultra Orthodox Jewish homes who are overcoming emotional and mental health challenges. I am a founding board member of the AZ House - residential recovery facility in Jerusalem

I’m open minded, approachable and creative in my practice and I enjoy working with diverse populations, though mainly work with women. I have worked with clients ranging in age from 15 to 71, from a variety of backgrounds.

Eating disorders can show up in almost any therapeutic setting, yet many therapists feel unprepared to recognize and address them. We may find ourselves sitting across from a client who is struggling with food, body image, or disordered eating, without fully recognizing what is happening or knowing how best to respond. Developing the knowledge and tools to navigate these situations is an essential part of providing competent care.

Join us for a two-day intensive training in Jerusalem, with eating disorders specialist, Hadassah Hazan, MSW. This course aims to demystify eating disorders by providing clinicians with a comprehensive, compassionate, and clinically grounded understanding of these presentations. Participants will explore how eating disorders develop and are maintained, how they function as adaptive survival strategies, and how they manifest behaviourally, emotionally, relationally and physiologically across diverse presentations.

Not every client needs more motivation. Sometimes they need less shame.

When people feel ashamed of their behavior, they may hide it, minimize it, or avoid asking for help altogether.

Creating a space where someone can speak honestly doesn't mean removing accountability.

It means creating the conditions for an honest conversation about what they want and what might need to change.

Do you agree or disagree?

I'd genuinely like to hear your perspective.
