Addiction
I was ordained in 2014, at the Academy for Jewish Religion in New York. As the ex-wife of an alcoholic who passed away from the disease in 2010, I am passionate about working with a variety of recovery communities. For the last 10 years I've been writing "12-Step Torah Commentaries" utilizing 12-Step slogans and connecting them to stories in the Torah.
