About Menachem
Menachem Stulberger is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 12 years of clinical experience. He works with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting and family concerns, anger, career questions, self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and communication problems.
He uses practical, collaborative conversations to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions focus on clear goals and small experiments to try between meetings. Menachem draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Client-Centered methods, Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and EMDR where relevant.

Menachem approaches therapy as a shared process. He helps set concrete targets, tracks progress, and adjusts methods based on what works for each person. Sessions include discussion, skills practice, and brief between-session tasks to support change.
How CBT, client-centered work and DBT translate to online sessions
Menachem uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT sessions focus on practical steps, thought records, and brief experiments that can be planned during a meeting and practiced afterward.He also uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen, reflect, and clarify what matters most to a person. That approach emphasizes open conversation and the client’s agenda. Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds skills for distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and clearer communication when emotions run high.
Deciding which method to use is collaborative. Menachem works with each person to match approaches to their goals and preferences, and he adjusts methods if something isn’t working. The focus is on clear goals, measurable steps, and regular review of progress.
