Our caregiver support group is for spouses, partners, or adult children who are in a caregiver role. The group attempts to help the caregiver deal with the psychological, emotional and spiritual aspects of their role. Although a lot of attention is given to the sick person, very little attention is given to the caregiver. Yet, the caregiver is in a very demanding role, often unsupported, not appreciated, expected to change his or her role, daily routines and expectations. In addition, the sick spouse is often self-consumed with health problems and does not recognize the changes the caregiver has to undergo. Although the group is not involved in psychotherapy, it does attempt to support those who are also in need, the caregivers. The group is a community service project offered by Netanya AACI and meets weekly at our offices.

There is no charge for this program If you are interested in the group, please contact us on 09 8330950 


















Esther Goldberg is a developmental, educational and clinical psychologist and is a specialist in ADHD.  She has had many years of practical working experience and leads support groups for parents of children with various developmental difficulties.

Parenting children with ADHD, developmental, learning, or behavioral difficulties can be extremely challenging.

Parental guidance has been shown to be an effective first treatment in order to help children or adolescents understand, cope and control behavior.

Support groups, working in English, can help parents understand the issues and can provide practical advice.  Parents learn to be empathetic, take responsibility, cope and gain control.  Group discussion allows parents to share experiences with others struggling with similar issues.  As a result, parents gain the ability to teach their children. Netanya AACI hopes to start a group, led by Esther, later in the year. If you are interested please leave your name at the front desk
