He has a particular strength in working with adults and children who are worried and feel stuck. When working with clients, his goal is to create a calm and comfortable atmosphere where clients can talk about their most intimate and personal struggles. Through working together, Shmuel helps clients discover strengths they were not aware of, build support systems for long-term success, and improves their ability to regulate their emotions.

Shmuel has been working with boys and young men as a teacher for over 25 years helping them strengthen self-esteem, work on emotional regulation, build compassion toward others, and improve their relationships with others. His calm, non-judgmental, and kind personality helps clients who struggle with depression, self-esteem, and anxiety. Shmuel helps men who experience performance anxiety, premature ejaculation, difficulties with sexual performance, and with compulsive sexual behavior or pornography addiction. He always treats the individual underneath the issues and helps them overcome their challenges. He also works with men who have spouses with a number of sexual dysfunctions such as pelvic pain, vulvodynia, sexual anxiety, sexual aversion, and low sexual desire. Marriages with a female sexual dysfunction or unconsummated marriages require extra support for those husbands.
