About Menachem
Menachem Stulberger is a licensed marriage and family therapist who uses a client-centered approach. He combines empathy with practical tools to help people facing stress and anxiety. He speaks plainly and listens closely so clients feel heard from the first session.
He draws on 12 years of clinical experience and holds an MA in Marriage and Family Therapy. Menachem uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people learn skills that reduce distress and change unhelpful patterns.
Background and approach
He also integrates Emotionally-Focused Therapy and EMDR when trauma or relationship patterns are part of the concern. Sessions tend to focus on clear goals and steps. Menachem helps people name what’s causing pain, try out new ways of responding, and practice skills between appointments.
He pays attention to communication problems and relationship patterns that often keep anxiety and stress going. He has worked with issues such as depression, grief, anger, parenting stress, intimacy-related concerns, career transitions, and compassion fatigue. The work is collaborative - therapist and client plan what to try and check progress together.
Menachem is based in California and offers straightforward, down-to-earth support. He aims to make therapy a practical part of daily life, not just a place to talk. He invites people to take the next step toward feeling more steady and capable.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's experience without judgment. Online sessions using this approach let the therapist follow your lead and reflect what matters most to you, which can help reduce anxiety and build trust.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change thinking and behavior that maintain worry and stress. In online work CBT often includes easy homework, thought records, and practicing new behaviors between sessions to track progress.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication. When delivered virtually, DBT skills can be reviewed in sessions and rehearsed through messaging or brief check-ins between appointments.
Finding the best approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit the client's needs, goals, and daily routine, and adjust the plan as progress is tracked.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face interaction and skills practice, phone calls are lower bandwidth and good for focused conversations, and messaging or live chat can fit quick check-ins or skill reminders. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, parenting, and other responsibilities while keeping treatment consistent.
