Mr. Shlomo Zalman Kaufman, MHC-LP

Staff Clinician

Shlomo Zalman Kaufman is a Staff Clinician at the CBT/DBT Health Center. He received his Masters Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Touro University. Besides being trained in DBT, he has certification in REBT from the Albert Ellis Institute. 

His prior work experience in a private practice setting gave him the opportunity to work with clients from a wide variety of backgrounds, ages, and walks of life. In his work, he has treated many different presenting problems, including trauma, depression, anxiety, and eating disorders. 

While DBT remains his primary focus, he also applies a broad range of therapeutic modalities and believes strongly in crafting a therapeutic approach tailored to the specific client. In the words of Dr. Carl Jung, “know all the theories, master all the techniques, but as you touch another human soul, just be another human soul.” 

He feels that it is an honor to hear and hold the stories of his clients and a privilege to play a role in helping them live lives of meaning, joy, and connectedness.
