About Mivtach

Mivtach - A Place of Listening, Healing, and Hope

I began my journey in the public sector as a Clinical Social Worker (MSW), specializing in complex trauma.
Through the years, I have had daily encounters with children, teens, and adults, supporting them at their most vulnerable and exposed moments.
As time passed, I realized the profound need for people to find a safe haven. I decided to fill that void with “Mivtach”, a nonprofit organization that provides security, containment, and, above all, gives those who deal with mental and emotional challenges the hope of a better future.
Since founding “Mivtach” in 2020, my team of therapists and I have provided professional guidance and treatment to hundreds of people coping with complex trauma and emotional or mental distress.

As the organization’s circles of influence continue to expand, I am pleased to invite more people to find their peace with us.
We offer an empathic, attentive, and supportive therapeutic treatment plan tailored even for those who simply need a listening ear, guidance, or direction from time to time.

Our Believe

As a father of four, I believe children need a supportive environment rooted in empathy and acceptance from both parents and teachers to help them navigate every difficulty and challenge.

To ensure they feel comfortable opening their hearts to us, we must maintain an inclusive and connecting dialogue from an early age.

Once they feel seen and heard, they will share their challenges with us, and we will be able to provide them with the right tools to overcome the difficulties.

Such children will grow into resilient adults who enjoy more peaceful, secure, and healthy lives.

Their words,
our right!

In the last five years, we had the privilege to work with Pinchas Weiss, founder and director of the Magen Security Center. Our entire team at the "Magen" support center benefits from his experience, professionalism, and dedication to complex trauma victims in the Haredi community. We are pleased that Pinchas has chosen to take his expertise one step further and create the Magen Treatment Center, which will be a valuable resource for our community. He has gathered highly trained professionals with extensive training, who will work with high sensitivity and maximum understanding of the needs of Haredi clients. We look forward to many years of productive work with Magen. , ."

As part of my work with thousands of mothers, of course, the subject of protection is one of the most widespread and sought-after. With God's help, I turned to Rabbi Pinchas Weiss to sharpen and clarify issues, and I was impressed by the clarity and sharpness, not only on how to protect children and care for them and their parents, but also from a more critical perspective, on how to prevent these injuries in advance, and not to reach these places at all.

I worked with Rabbi Pinchas Weiss at the Noam Elimelech Yeshiva and we brought many very important cases to him for treatment. Along the way, I saw how unique and dedicated his work is. He delves into details of diagnosis like almost no one else. And all with respect, pleasantness, and a smile that is always on his face. The only goal that stands before his eyes is to help the person who came to him, whether it's a young person, a teenager, an adult, parents, or educators, and he does everything with loyalty and discretion. Rabbi Pinchas is the right person and I highly recommend him.

We are delighted to recommend the professional and humane work of Rabbi Pinchas Weiss. I personally encountered his professional work while serving as the former manager of the "Mital" center in Beit Shemesh, in a joint effort for the benefit of the patients. Rabbi Weiss brings a professional, humane, and culturally sensitive approach to the therapeutic space in the community. The establishment of the "Mivtachim" center is an additional contribution to the community's activities. Creating a suitable and tailored therapeutic response to the patients' needs while deepening the community's understanding and unique needs of the Haredi community.

Pinchas worked at the municipal welfare department of Beit Shemesh as a community and police officer. During his work, he provided significant assistance to youth centers and collaborated with community rabbis and youth center staff. Additionally, he assisted many families who unfortunately dealt with family-related issues. Pinchas supported them professionally and discreetly, providing guidance and assistance, particularly when dealing with the complexities of welfare and legal authorities. Even today, Pinchas continues to provide sensitive and professional assistance to families through the "Mivtach" association.
