About Me

My name is Hagit Zucker, I am a counselling and educational psychologist accredited by the HCPC and a chartered member of the British Psychological Society (CPsychol).

I have extensive experience working with children, adolescents, parents and young adults.

My therapeutic approach is integrative, combining psychodynamic theory with cognitive-behavioral techniques. I believe that sensitive, compassionate, and empathic psychotherapy can lead to genuine improvement in quality of life, and I am happy to explore with my patients a path to growth and change.

I have ample experience working on issues ranging from normative conflicts/development to acute functional difficulties, including anxiety, depression, social difficulties, learning difficulties, ADHD, and sensory regulation difficulties. In addition, I have experience supporting individuals in adapting to new environments, such as attending a new school/college, work place or relocating.

I hold a master’s degree (M.A.) in Psychology from Ben Gurion University, where I researched potential ways to moderate high inhibition in people afflicted with restricted eating disorders, such as anorexia nervosa.

I interned as a psychologist in Israel. My training included providing therapy services to children and adolescents, as well as conducting parent consultation, comprehensive psychological assessments, and consulting educational institutions such as schools, nurseries, and special education needs institutions.

I worked as a senior group therapist at a private institute located in Tel Aviv. This institute is renowned for its focus on enhancing social skills through tailored individual and group therapy sessions.

With over a decade of practical experience in the field of therapy, I have at the same time furthered my studies through seminars and courses at Tavistock and Portman, the Anna Freud Centre, and the Institute of Psychoanalysis in London. These experiences have deepened my understanding of psychoanalytic and psychodynamic approaches, enabling me to integrate advanced techniques and insights into my practice.

I am also a co-founder of Insight Centre, a specialized ADHD and cognitive assessment centre focused on evaluations and follow-up interventions.
