As part of the "Patient's Family" course, led by Ofra - at the Pisga Center in Modi'in, I became aware of important content concerning the patient and his family.

Alongside the professional contribution, I gained a significant personal experience through the content processed in my final thesis, which dealt with the nuclear personal family.

 This work allowed me to touch on content related to my family, intergenerational patterns, some of which were hidden from me and it seems to me that without the course I would not have been exposed to them. I am deeply grateful to Ofra for this course, which continues to resonate in my life. Tzipi Cohen, Art Therapist, Ministry of Education

Dr. Ofra Shaham conducts workshops and professional groups in the field of family therapy. While I was the director of pediatric occupational therapy at Clalit Health Services, Tel Aviv District, we invited Ofra to conduct a workshop of several sessions that included training and accompaniment of the therapeutic team.

The team benefited from these workshops in an extraordinary way! The perspective on the connections within the family, on the ability of each of the caregivers to empower the parents so that these forces would promote the child's functioning – were immediately expressed in the field.

 Furthermore, each of the caregivers also benefited personally from the workshop. It was an empowering professional experience. Thank you Ofra, Jewish Eitan, Clalit Health Services

 I think the "Patient's Family" course is a must-have course for any therapeutic professional who comes into contact with the patient's families, from which I emerged with insights that will accompany me throughout both my personal life and my profession as a therapist. Bar, Tel Aviv University

Hello Ofra. I want to thank you again for a wonderful workshop! You delivered it with great professionalism, humanity, and sensitivity, while respecting all participants.

 I am sure that the content and personal experience I have had will accompany me in the rest of my professional and personal life. Blessings!! Ayelet, Beit Levinstein

Hello Ofra, I wanted to say that the course was excellent, I enjoyed it very much, I felt that it gave us another perspective on treatment that is very important (if not the most important).

 Only in the last year was I able to step more into the parents' shoes and understand them, and the course sharpened points that had already emerged from the field and added to them. Hadas, Hebrew University

First of all, the lecturer - a personality to admire!

 And then the important issues that came up and the great place given to us and our insights, Sharon, Clalit Health Services

The interviews with my family members and their processing were a great and meaningful gift to me. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

 With thanks and blessings, Lilach, Ministry of Defense Rehabilitation Division
