Getting to know Mirel Goldstein

Hi there, my name is Mirel Goldstein and I've been practicing as a psychotherapist and teaching psychology courses for over 2 decades. What sets my practice apart is my ability to challenge my patients while supporting them at the same time. I believe strongly that therapy is not supposed to feel like talking to a friend and you should feel that you're gaining something valuable from the sessions. I'd love to help you feel less anxious or overcome whatever struggles you're having!

What should a new client know about working with you?

My approach is psychodynamic, meaning that I will use our relationship to help you explore your unconscious conflicts, and to get to the root of your symptoms. We will go deep and sometimes it may be awkward or uncomfortable, but you'll feel you're in good hands the entire time. Therapy with me is self-directed, I let you choose the direction of each session.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I will ask you to say what's on your mind and will listen carefully for what might be going on beneath the surface for you. I will challenge you if I hear inconsistencies in what you're saying and I will support you to take back your power in trusting yourself, speaking up in relationships, and owning who you are. I won't interrupt awkward silences all the time because sometimes the best work gets done in those moments. I believe in being real with my patients and always strive to be honest in my feedback.
