Getting to know Dr. Galit Birk
CORE Counseling and Wellness - Helping You and Your Relationships Thrive! We are a boutique, human-centered practice with a single office and a personal, high-touch approach to care. We specialize in Life Transitions and All Things Relationships: couples counseling, couples on the brink, premarital, dating, divorce, and your relationship with yourself too. We offer Concierge Counseling and Coaching for clients who wish to go beyond the standard 50-minute sessions and really deepen their work. We believe that we are not meant to do it alone, and we look forward to working with you.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Dr. Galit Birk, PhD, LPC, is a single mother of two. She has been through a divorce, so she knows struggle, and she also knows strength, healing, and resilience. She has not had a straight line in life (as many of us don't), and she wouldn't have it any other way! "It is in the twists, turns, and struggles that we grow," is her motto, and this is where she meets clients along their own journey of becoming. "I am not the therapist who just nods," she says. Dr. Galit will not just tell you what you want to hear. She is direct, or as she says, "kind and direct," often offering the hard truths, while acknowledging that she doesn't always get it right because "no one is perfect". Dr. G (as some clients call her) is all about helping her clients live lives they love and thrive in their relationships. She's here for "all things relationships," wherever you are on the relational continuum, from dating to premarital, marriage, couples on the brink, as well as helping clients through divorce. Her mission is to help couples and individuals move from surviving to thriving.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I am committed to people having it all and living a life they love! Humanistic-existential and person-centered trained, I hold a positive view of the human being; one in which you are the expert and change-agent of your life, the focus is forward-focused, and together we co-create your preferred future, bridging the gap between where you are and where you wish to be, integrating more directive approaches as needed to bring about deep, meaningful, and lasting positive change. Standard sessions are 50 minutes for couples and individuals. However, at CORE, we like to do the really deep work with clients, so we offer a Concierge Model for clients who want deeper exploration, longer sessions, and higher access between sessions. (prices vary for concierge counseling and coaching ).
