Avi Weiskopf, LCSW

All of us are born with many parts who exist as an internal family within us, and the key to health and happiness is to honor, understand, and love every part.” - Dr. Richard Schwartz

Avi Weiskopf, LCSW's style

Why Avi Weiskopf, LCSW chose to be in the helping profession

From as far back as I can remember, I’ve always been drawn to the idea of helping others find their way—whether that meant supporting them through a tough time, offering advice, or simply listening when they needed it most. I’ve witnessed firsthand how transformative a little guidance and understanding can be in someone’s life.

Choosing this profession felt like the natural fulfillment of that deep desire. It’s not just about helping people overcome challenges; it’s about guiding them toward growth, self-discovery, and a better version of themselves. Every step I take in this field feels like a meaningful contribution to someone’s journey, and there’s nothing more fulfilling than that.

Avi Weiskopf, LCSW's approach

I believe therapy should never be a one-size-fits-all experience. Each person brings their own unique history, challenges, and way of seeing the world, which is why I take an eclectic approach to meet you where you are.

Depending on your specific needs and personality, I incorporate techniques from various modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS). Each of these methods offers something valuable, and I've trained extensively in all of them to give you the best tools possible for your healing.

My goal is to tailor the process to what will resonate most deeply with you, allowing us to work together in a way that feels authentic and effective.

What you can expect from sessions with Avi Weiskopf, LCSW

Whether you're struggling with relationship challenges, mental health concerns, or simply feeling like you're not living up to your full potential, you don’t have to face these hurdles alone. Our sessions are a space for you to explore what’s weighing you down and to develop practical tools to overcome those obstacles.

Together, we’ll work on navigating and managing these challenges, so you can move from feeling stuck or overwhelmed to a place where you’re thriving and empowered. My goal is to help you reconnect with your strengths and begin living the life you know you're capable of.

Avi Weiskopf, LCSW's experience working with the Jewish community

I have had the privilege of working within our Jewish community as a psychotherapist, supporting teens, adults, and couples through various stages of their lives. Whether it's navigating the unique pressures that come with adolescence, helping individuals find clarity in their personal growth, or guiding couples toward deeper understanding and connection, I've seen firsthand the strength and resilience within our community.

My approach is always culturally sensitive and rooted in a deep understanding of the values and traditions that shape our lives. It's an honor to be part of this meaningful work, helping others overcome challenges while staying true to their identity and faith
