Note from Avi
Note from Avi
Gestalt Therapy drew me in for its humanistic approach, focus on the present, integration of other methods, and recognition that we can never fully know another’s experience.
Psychotherapy varies by practitioner, some take a structured, methodical approach, while others see it as an art. I belong to the latter, embracing the nonlinear nature of the psyche and life itself.

My husband and I found Avi when we were in a dark place. Avi was thoughtful, patient with us — and funny! We didn’t know what we were looking for, but we found a fellow artist. He’s so soulful, and he has this magical ability to help you unwind yourself. For that, we’re grateful. We’ve asked him to work with our teenagers, family members, even friends. He’s truly singular.

Since working with Avi, I’ve grown into the person I want to be—more self-aware, confident, and in touch with my needs. He’s truly exceptional, and working with him has been a gift!

Avi Steinhardt was an amazing counselor for myself and my family. His kind understanding, and knowledge helped me get through a very stressful part of my life, being a single mom.

When I speak with Avi, I feel more than heard. His patience has allowed that enlightenment to occur organically, and though the positive impact on my life has been nothing short of massive, the process has always felt simple, human, and caring.
