About Us

Lechol Nefesh is a non-profit organization, founded in 2010 by a group of psychologists, psychiatrists and social workers, who believe in the power of prolonged and intensive psychotherapy to help in cases of severe emotional distress. The organization believes that this treatment must not be regarded as a privililege, and seeks to provide it within public mental-health institutions and community-based clinics.
