Neuropsychologist, ICF member

Devorah Rabinowitz

I am a Neuropsychologist and a Life Coach with the International Coaching Federation (ICF). My personal and professional career has spanned two continents and over thirty years. I was born and raised in the United Kingdom. After qualifying as a Chartered Surveyor, I joined the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS). After a career change, I studied Neuropsychology at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem and currently work in the rehabilitation ward of Hadassah hospital. In a voluntary capacity, I spearheaded a global fundraising initiative, directing a multi-level team of more than one hundred volunteers worldwide and together we raised over half a million dollars for charitable causes. I have been married for over thirty years. Managing select projects, together with raising a family has necessitated a great deal of juggling and self growth. My leadership experience motivated me to help others enrich their lives through becoming exceptional leaders. My coaching approach subscribes to my philosophy that we are each a unique product of our skills, experiences, background, qualifications, strengths and talents and that by harnessing our strengths and developing our self-awareness we can maximise our potential. In this vein, in an attempt to develop opportunities locally, I founded the JCA in 2013 offering a range of live and online courses blending conventional and modern psychology with Jewish values.
