Rachel Lasarow, LCSW's experience working with the Jewish community

I am an Orthodox Jew and have extensive experience working with the Jewish community. I have a deep appreciation for the cultural nuances and values that shape individuals' lives by cultivating a strong understanding of the unique challenges and strengths within the community.

My work has included supporting individuals and families through life transitions, grief, and trauma, while also providing a space for exploration of identity and spiritual well-being within a Jewish context. Overall, my experience has underscored the importance of cultural competence and sensitivity in providing effective and meaningful therapeutic support within the Jewish community. Additionally, this process can be a spiritual journey for some and my position as a therapist is to help foster a client's identity around their religious affiliation in whatever way that may be.
