Frequently Asked Questions

“Mivtach” is a nonprofit organization that provides therapeutic and emotional support for children, adolescents, and adults coping with emotional pain. Our professional team specializes in providing support for those dealing with loss and bereavement, trauma and PTSD, sexual trauma, suicidality, and more.

The organization also provides services to security and rescue forces, educational institutions, soldiers, and survivors of the October 7th events. Additionally, our teams offer lectures, workshops, and parental guidance focused on increasing awareness of sexual trauma.

Usually, there isn’t one definitive sign of sexual trauma, but rather a cluster of behaviors that serve as warning signs. Common behaviors associated with sexual trauma include avoiding physical contact, outbursts of anger or violence, changes in eating and sleeping habits, a decline in self-confidence, and more.

If you notice these changes in your child, it is crucial to seek professional advice to find the right tools and guidance before asking, “Did something happen?” If the suspicion is confirmed, it is recommended to seek professional counseling as soon as possible to provide both you and your child with the emotional support you need.

Adolescence is a time of change. Whether it’s boys or girls, physical and mental changes affect daily behavior. Sometimes they withdraw into their rooms simply because they need some time to themselves. As parents, it is important to maintain a steady presence, continue showing interest, and check in on their well-being.

It is also recommended to develop an attentive, non-judgmental parental dialogue that lets them know you are there for them for any question or concern. However, in cases where withdrawal is accompanied by outbursts of violence and rage, increased sadness, or a decline in general functioning, professional advice is recommended.

Here at “Mivtach,” you can find professional therapists specializing in parental guidance for adolescents facing the challenges of growing up.

While the moment of disclosure is incredibly painful for you, remember that the experience is significantly more difficult for your child.

Therefore, even if your mind is racing and you feel anger building up, it is extremely important to take a deep breath, remain as calm as possible, and say to your child: “Thank you for sharing this with me. You did the right thing.” It is important to speak with them showing empathy, free of doubt or judgment.

When a suspicion of sexual trauma arises (even the slightest one), it is recommended you seek professional advice as soon as possible.

Our representatives are available to provide an initial response, support, and guidance based on the details of the case.

There is no right or wrong when dealing with feelings of loss, grief, sadness and longing, as everyone processes these feelings in their own way.  

Some choose to engage in commemoration, some volunteer, and others turn to mental health treatment (individual or group therapy).

If you’re dealing with persistent pain, you can contact our team, who will help you find a therapist to provide emotional support and guidance.

Our organization is active Sunday through Thursday, from 08:00 to 18:00. You can reach us at +972-2-577-0756.

Our offices are closed during weekends and Jewish holidays.
