Menachem Stulberger , LMFT

Menachem Stulberger is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 12 years of clinical experience helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges. He brings a warm, empathic presence to sessions and emphasizes a client-centered approach that prioritizes each person’s goals and perspective. Trained in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), he blends practical skills with reflective work to address concerns such as grief and loss, depression, anxiety, and substance use issues.

Raised in New York and long based in Los Angeles, Menachem studied psychology for his bachelor’s degree at Touro College Los Angeles and completed a master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy through Touro University Worldwide. In practice he focuses on creating a supportive environment where difficult topics can be explored mindfully and without judgment, and he collaborates with clients to identify strategies that increase well-being and resilience. He also addresses relationship and family dynamics, communication difficulties, parenting challenges, self-esteem, career stress, and compassion fatigue.

Menachem respects the step it takes to seek help and approaches therapy as a joint process, working alongside clients to develop practical tools and deeper understanding as they move toward their goals.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Menachem Stulberger integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into his online practice. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and collaboration so clients feel heard and supported while they set their own goals. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaching practical strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills that can be especially useful for managing intense emotions and improving relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Menachem works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and tailors interventions so the method fits the individual rather than the other way around.

Online sessions offer flexibility and accessibility by allowing clients to meet via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access licensed professionals from different locations while receiving an evidence-informed approach suited to the client’s concerns.
