Listen meditatively. Be heard.
Both speaking and listening are part of the healing that listening circles offer.
​
Speaking mindfully with the attentive listening of the group is often deeply restorative.
When listening, it’s a meditative practice - being present to yourself and the moment, as well as to the other. Practicing listening in this way can lighten your experience in the therapy room.
​
The meeting, an hour long, will begin with a few minutes of grounding and connecting to the body and to emotion. Guidelines for Listening Circles, also called Way of Council, will follow.
​
The circle is limited in number. Everyone who wishes will have a few minutes to speak from the heart and receive the listening presence of the group.
​
We’ll end with a moment of gratitude for the space we’ve created.

Hi, I’m Margo.
Clinical Social Worker and Therapist
I work with people coping with difficult relationships, anxiety, illness and loss, in Jerusalem and online.
​
In my twenty years as a therapist I’ve seen that the listening we provide is perhaps the most powerful component of therapeutic healing. I want us to get heard too.
Maybe you’ve heard this joke: How do you emotionally regulate a therapist? Answer: Put a client in front of them.
​
​This resonates for me and mindful listening is why.
