We don’t heal in isolation, we heal in connection.

Ashley Medford is a licensed therapist in the United States. She is passionate about helping people heal from emotional and psychological pain and this passion was the provenance for an NGO, Galilee Counseling. The mission is to assist people in Israel with year-round counseling, that is easily assessable, and at no cost to them.

The group offers several options for therapy, including 3-day counseling retreats in Migdal, Israel. This immersive experience allows for faster progress, deeper self-reflection, and healing breakthroughs. We strive to meet you where you are and individual, on-going, weekly counseling is also available.

  • We believe the healing of one person can bring meaningful change to a their life, their family, and their community.

  • We believe each person has inherent value and dignity and are worthy of restoration.

  • We believe you have the ability to heal and thrive.

This personal attention is why Galilee Counseling offers three days of therapy to one person at a time with most expenses covered.

Our counselors seek to come alongside in a supportive role, those who have experienced various forms of trauma or other barriers to true freedom and wholeness. We use a wide variety of approaches including globally recognized trauma-based techniques.
