Subsidized counseling

We are interested in pursuing marital counseling, but money is very tight. Do you know of any organizations that might offer financial assistance in this area? We live in Yerushalayim. Thank you.

Dear questioner,

Thank you for your question.

Machon Shiluv and The Family Institute at Neve Yerushalayim are two Jerusalem institutions offering heavily subsidized therapy to couples who could not otherwise afford care.  Information can be found at:
