It’s hard to overstate the incredible value Judith has brought into my life. I worked with her for several years, as an individual and with one of my parents. What I find most helpful about Judith is her ability to know when to listen, and when to guide - she always knew how to get me unstuck or help me move through something, and she was always proactively walking alongside me in whatever we were exploring, never letting me feel lost, and always seeing the full picture of my life and my needs. She draws on so many different types of experience and expertise, helping me to understand the theory of what I am experiencing, practical things I can do to heal and know myself better, as well as deeper more emotional work that you need to feel really safe to do. Whilst her kindness and expertise was consistent, she also adapted her style depending on what I needed at any given time.
I often find myself wanting someone to just have all the answers, and tell me what I need to do, which is obviously not how it works, but Judith is the closest I have come to that - she knows how to get you to your own answers, and your own decisions, and makes sure you don’t miss them, and can feel proud of them. She is able to hold space for two important truths: what you’re experiencing is normal and okay; and, what you’re experiencing is totally unique and yours to define. I’ve had a lot of therapists in my life, and I know how hard it is to find people like Judith - she is one in a million. I recommend her to everyone.

I am a seasoned psychologist who has also been a client during crucial times in my life. I was so very fortunate to find Dr. Judith Zur two years ago. She is a highly trained and skilled psychologist as well as a warm and compassionate person. The work we have done together since that time has helped me make important, life changing decisions. Being able to use telehealth helped me manage my time the best and was a real godsend when I was hospitalized for a month. She always found a way to get me into her schedule despite time differences, etc. I whole heartedly recommend Dr. Judith Zur to become your therapist.

Insightful, compassionate, and creative, Judith Zur is a wonderful therapist. I worked with her for about a year and a half, and she helped me more than any other therapist I've seen in my life. I did both individual sessions with her, focusing on childhood and family trauma, and couples sessions with my partner. These are areas in which I think Judith is especially skilled.
We focused at first on my family and childhood issues, and she helped me to understand my past experiences in a new way that helps me to release the blame, guilt and shame that were plaguing me. We examined how those issues affected me in my present day, and how I could change my patterns and responses to triggers. This has helped me immensely. Before, I went through life with so many toxic emotions surrounding self-esteem and not feeling loved. Judith helped me to see the old beliefs and how they played out in my life better than any book I've read, any workshop I've attended, or any other therapist.
The couples sessions saved my relationship with my partner. Neither of us had experienced healthy home lives and had no model to emulate. She helped us so much communicate more effectively. I feel so very happy and grateful to be in a healthy relationship, and a large part of that is the therapy we went to.
Overall, I highly recommend Judith as a therapist. She is truly a gifted healer.

When I started with Judith I was not in a good place, I felt very depressed again, but this time with a recommendation from a good friend who had been having therapy sessions with Judith, I decided it was time to take some action. I have been very up and down for years, suffering from anxiety, low self esteem and anger issues. I had tried therapy before but I did not connect with that person, so felt that therapy was not the route to go down. However, I was very wrong, from the moment I met Judith, I knew that it would work. She is incredibly kind and patient and this time actually gave me ways to deal with my thoughts, feelings and emotions. I never thought that I remembered so much from childhood but she managed to bring memories back that I never knew where there, it was quite amazing and opened my mind up to give me a better understanding of myself. Judith is very easy to speak to, I think this is in part to the very positive aura she has. I always thought it is narcissistic to sit and talk about yourself for a whole hour, but I would say to anyone who has or is feeling depressed and doesn't want to take medication, that this is the way forward. Judith has helped me tremendously, I have a much deeper understanding of who I am, why I react a certain way to issues and now I have a way to try and deal with them. Its never easy and will be a long road, but I feel like I have made a start with the help of Judith. Another great thing is that she is only a call away, I live in Dubai, so if anyone ever thoughts that face to face might be better, this is not the case, having Skype session feels like your in the same room anyway. So thank you Judith for all your care and wise words, I will be forever be thankful for your guidance.

I felt that Judith Zur was present during a long process of deep work coming to terms with issues of abuse in my past. I felt held by her and could trust her enough to look at problems I had previously held very distant in order to survive. I slowly began to feel unburdened by problems of depression and anxiety which had plagued me for years. I still have a ways to go but feel like a different and more alive person now. I cannot recommend Judith enough and am thankful for finding her.

I contacted Dr. Zur for help with my relationship which was falling apart. She helped us identify the negative patterns we had fallen into. She told us that "we did not need to find the bad guy" and from there things began to look up. We began to find a more gentle way to communicate and to take care of ourselves and one another. Not only did our marriage survive but we feel much closer and our children seem happier.

Dr. Zur was extremely caring during our conversation. She genuinely wanted to help and was very resourceful. Thank you for being on top of my needs and for your professionalism. I highly recommend you.

Dr. Zur is just wonderful. When I was in my darkest times she helped pull me out. She was very patient and understanding. She gave me wonderful advice to help resolve my current situations. I felt that she truly cared about my well being. You can tell she is very well educated with lots of experience and was willing to try different techniques that would personally work for me. I would definitely recommend her!!

Thanks to Dr. Zur, I am a firm believer in the power of counseling, even if there aren't any immediate issues requiring resolution. Dr. Zur challenged us to continually improve our communication skills, and create goals - both personal and as a couple.
Simply stated, counseling with Dr. Zur is good. She brings knowledge and experience to the table, and inspires those around her to become better partners and people themselves. My wife and I are very grateful to have worked with Dr. Zur and continue to this day to implement the many concepts which she empowered us with.

We are a cross cultural couple and came to Dr. Zur with issues of anger, frustration and lack of communication that escalated to physical and verbal abuse. through therapy with Dr. Zur we learned to understand each other better, be empathic and acquired tools to communicate and deal with conflict better. We felt very comfortable with her style and neutrality. Before our first session, I was very skeptical of going to yet another therapist. But I meet her, I saw warmth, like a spark in her face, that and your smile helped me to connect and open up. We have recommended Dr. Zur many times as she helped us so much. Our children are happier too because there is a different energy in our home.
We are very thankful that when we had issues that we considered urgent, she took the time to listen to us and usually it was not the clock regulating the length (or number) of our sessions but more a human component.
