About Gali
Dr. Gali Yahav uses an attachment-informed, trauma-aware approach to help people find steadier sleep and calmer days. She is a clinical psychologist with 17 years of experience working with stress, anxiety, mood problems, and issues that disrupt rest. She frames therapy as a practical, relationship-based process aimed at making daily life easier for clients.
Sessions focus on everyday problems that interfere with sleep and wellbeing. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thinking and habits. She also uses trauma-focused methods and EMDR components when past events keep showing up in the present.
Her work often addresses relationship and intimacy concerns that affect mood and sleep. She helps people talk through communication problems, feelings of emptiness, guilt, and isolation, and difficulties tied to family of origin or fatherhood. She also supports people coping with grief, anger, and life transitions.
Dr. Yahav conducts therapy in English and Hebrew and practices in Nevada as NV Psychologist PY0487. Her style is straightforward and warm, with an emphasis on building trust and practical change. She encourages clear steps you can try between sessions to improve rest, mood, and daily routines.

How attachment and trauma approaches translate to online work
Therapy often starts with Attachment-Based ideas that look at how relationships shape feelings and daily routines. In plain terms this approach helps people notice patterns in how they connect, how that affects sleep and stress, and what small changes might help improve rest.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify thoughts and habits that keep problems going. The method breaks down unhelpful thinking and builds practical skills for sleep hygiene, worry management, and mood stabilization. EMDR and trauma-focused techniques are available as ways to address painful memories that continue to affect sleep and emotions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. Sessions adapt over time as needs change and progress is made.
