About
A healing space in the heart of the Galilee, supporting individuals and families coping with the trauma of October 7 and the current war "Roaring Lion". Through nature, community, and research-based therapy, we guide participants toward recovery, resilience, and renewed meaning.
Core program Vision
The Tali Center aspires to be a pioneering space for healing, connection, and growth for individuals coping with the wounds of trauma caused by the events of October 7 and the ongoing war.
​
At the heart of the Galilee landscape, at Lev HaGalil Farm in Kfar Hittim, we are creating a safe and peaceful environment that allows people to pause, breathe, and reconnect with themselves, with others, and with nature.
​
Through a unique combination of deep group work, research-based therapeutic tools, and holistic healing approaches, we aim to enable participants to go through a process of recovery, meaning-making, and growth in the face of challenge.
​
Our goal is to make therapeutic support accessible to a wide range of populations affected by the events of this period—soldiers, their spouses and partners, the wounded and those in rehabilitation, amputees, teenagers and children, bereaved families, families of hostages, and survivors of the Nova festival—and to create for them a space of connection, hope, and healing.
​
Our vision is to build a supportive community that nurtures inner resilience, a sense of belonging, and meaning, and to create a new model in Israel for trauma healing through nature, community, and mindfulness.
​
The mission of the program is to provide therapeutic and supportive care for individuals coping with the consequences of the trauma of the October 7 events and its ongoing impact, by creating a safe, professional, and healing space in the natural environment of the Galilee.
​
The center integrates research-based therapeutic approaches with holistic and experiential methods that allow participants to reconnect with themselves, with others, and with the natural world.
​
Through group work guided by professionals specializing in trauma, alongside practices such as meditation, guided imagery, work with nature and animals, and complementary therapies, the center helps participants process difficult experiences, cultivate emotional resilience, and rediscover meaning, balance, and hope.
​
The center operates (in collaboration with “Brothers in Yoga” and “Acupuncture Without Borders”) to make these services accessible to a wide range of populations affected by the events of this period—soldiers, the wounded and those in rehabilitation, amputees, partners and families, teenagers and children, lone soldiers, bereaved families, families of hostages, and survivors of the Nova festival.
Core Values of the Nature-Based Trauma Healing Program
The core values of the program led by the Tali Center guide our professional work and the way we create a safe, sensitive, and meaningful therapeutic space for participants.
​
Healing through connection
We believe that a deep connection between a person and themselves, others, and nature is a central element in the process of healing from trauma.
​
The healing power of nature and place
The choice of location for the activities at the horse farm in the heart of the Galilee, in Kfar Hittim, is not accidental. The open environment, natural landscapes, and interaction with animals create a unique space that allows for calm, breathing, grounding, and reconnection with life—essential elements in the process of recovering from trauma.
Knowledge-based professionalism
The center’s work is grounded in up-to-date research on trauma and carried out in collaboration with licensed and experienced professionals.
​
Community and mutual support
We cultivate a group environment that fosters a sense of belonging, attentive listening, and mutual support among people coping with similar experiences.
​
Respect and sensitivity
All activities are conducted with deep respect for each participant’s personal story and with the sensitivity required when working with trauma.
​
Hope and growth
We believe in the human ability to find meaning, resilience, and growth even through difficult experiences.
