Miriam Yerushalmi, psychologist and Marriage & Family counselor (MS, Pepperdine University, 1991), fuses Torah principles with her background in Mental Health into brain training techniques that empower individuals to release their inner healing potential and align with life's purpose on essential issues. She is uniquely skilled at combining behavioral and humanistic approaches to address a wide spectrum of psychopathology, from panic disorders to addiction, depressive and bipolar disorders, anxiety, anger management, and ADHD. Miriam's clients learn to develop and apply tools for a balanced, fulfilled life.
Miriam Yerushalmi utilizes CBTT(TM)️ -- Cognitive Behavioral Torah Therapy, a holistic therapeutic approach built on the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy framework and directed with Torah-true perspective and wisdom -- to help people overcome psychological, emotional, and even psychiatric issues, as well as guide those who simply want to live a healthy, fulfilling Jewish life.
In this, the fourth book of Miriam's Reaching New Heights series, Miriam Yerushalmi helps readers learn to balance their physical needs - including diet, sleep, and exercise - with their spiritual needs, utilizing the inherent soul powers of the neshamah (soul) and the faculty of imagination to achieve self-actualization and reach new heights of inner peace, health, and happiness.
Miriam utilizes the wisdom of the Sages to help us deal optimally with the challenges of modern-day life. She provides the meditations and visualizations for which she is well-known, along with sample diets, advice for better sleep, and suggestions for further reading.
