Posted on Google Nick MohammedDecember 1, 2022Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had never discussed anything with a therapist before I started talking to Daniel. I can honestly say that he is an excellent listener and gives insightful advice. He's professional, intelligent, and has a real warmth that can't be faked. I consider myself a bit of a cynic but seeing Daniel is nothing like what I imagined seeing a shrink would be like. I would highly recommend him as a psychologist if you're looking for someone to help, he just "gets it".Posted on Google Rachel RC Scott-MohammedDecember 1, 2022Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. They say that empaths only exists in science fiction, but anyone who knows the Daniel knows that's not true at all! Daniel is such an approachable person and knows how to make you comfortable in your own space. His presence makes you feel safe and he genuinely wants to help you heal and elevate your life. His compassion for the human spirit goes above and beyond everything you could ever ask for in a therapist! I would give 5,000 stars if I could!Posted on Google Yu LiNovember 30, 2022Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been seeing Daniel for a few years now and cannot say enough good things about him. He’s compassionate, genuine, and tailors his approach based on my individual needs. I especially appreciate how he always remembers small details, which makes me trust that he is really listening and cares about my individual growth. He’s also always willing to work with me if I have a conflict!Posted on Google TanishaNovember 30, 2022Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband and i have been seeing Daniel for a while now for couples counseling. I was nervous about whether he'd be a good fit but Daniel has helped us through some tough situations. He's very caring and I think he's amazing and we're very grateful to have him.Posted on Google Kutluhan UnalirNovember 30, 2022Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Finding the right people to care for has been a long journey for me until I came across the good people of HST- From the moment I made contact I could feel I was listened to and my needs were a priority. the location also is a bonus as it is very centralPosted on Google Sharon RingelNovember 30, 2022Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. There are no words for me to express how much I appreciate heartspace therapy and in particular Nadav. Personally, heartspace therapy is a life-changing experience for me. The repair work, honesty (sometimes brutal), and acceptance I got during my sessions–and more importantly the tools I learn to give those to myself–changed my life forever. I will always be grateful to heartspace for helping me discover myself. I started this journey with very little faith in changing old habits and patterns and I came out of there a completely different person. Thank you for showing me the light when it got really dark and for always reminding me that I am worthy of love and affection. It sounds simple now, but it took me a while to get there. I am forever grateful for showing me how and where I should go.Posted on Google Lauren GoldbergNovember 29, 2022Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Daniel is such a kind, caring person. He’s incredibly easy to speak to - never a hint of judgement, just open ears and compassion.Posted on Google ziv kanerNovember 13, 2022Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had the privilege of being Nadav’s client. Nadav is caring, loving, compassionate, committed, and overall wonderful therapist. They helped me overcome many challenges and I can’t recommend them enough. One of the best therapists out there—you won’t regret working with them.Posted on Google Matan EldarNovember 13, 2022Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Frankly, I was really nervous to start therapy. I knew I could benefit from the support but hesitated to “dig deep”. Those fears were gone within the first few sessions with Nadav. They made me feel safe and at ease to share myself more openly. They continuously checked in with me to see how I was feeling during the process. I’m now a big advocate of therapy and if you can work with Nadav, please give yourself that gift. At least 5 starts from me!
