About Noam

Noam Dinovitz is a clinician who blends practical tools with conversational care to help people move forward. He meets clients where they are and focuses on concrete steps that lead to change rather than only talking about problems.

Background and approach

He uses a client-centered stance that begins with listening and clarifying what matters most to each person. From there he adds techniques drawn from approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to build skills for daily life.

Gottman Method is also part of his toolkit for addressing relationship concerns. Common areas he helps with include anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem, grief, addictions, and coping with life changes.

He also addresses intimacy-related issues, eating concerns, parenting strain, and career stress. He will work with overlapping or complex concerns such as ADHD, bipolar symptoms, chronic illness, and codependency when relevant to a person's goals.

Noam holds an MD and is credentialed as an LCSW-C and LCSW. He has seven years of clinical experience practicing in Pennsylvania and conducts sessions in English.

His approach blends questions that invite self-reflection with hands-on strategies to try between sessions. Sessions are collaborative and goal-focused.

He checks in regularly to make sure the work is moving in the direction the client wants. Progress is tracked in simple, practical steps so people can see what changes are happening.

Using therapy approaches online to build change

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people live by their values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. It often includes practical exercises for noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence mood and teaches specific skills to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy centers on how early connection patterns shape current relationships and helps people develop more supported ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose or combine methods that fit their goals, preferences, and the issues they want to address. That process includes checking in regularly and adjusting techniques if something isn’t working.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper interaction. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people share thoughts in writing between sessions and can fit into busy schedules. These options help people access therapy from different locations and at different times while keeping the work focused and practical.
