Genesis Israel's style
💙 Warm 🥇 Empowering 🌎 Holistic 🙏 SpiritualAbout Genesis Israel
Genesis Israel is a pioneering therapeutic program that offers a unique blend of mental health care, kosher addiction treatment, and recovery support in the heart of Jerusalem. Founded on two decades of professional experience in the United States, Genesis was created to fill the need for a culturally sensitive, holistic treatment model for Jewish individuals. The program's cornerstone is the Jerusalem Treatment Model, an integrative approach that combines outpatient clinical services with the benefits of a residential setting, creating a supportive, spiritually grounded environment.
At Genesis, we believe healing requires more than just clinical expertise—it demands respect for each client’s individuality, culture, and spirituality. By providing a nurturing and innovative space for growth, we empower our clients to become well-adjusted individuals, finding renewed purpose and meaning in their lives.
