The trauma caused by the deadly attacks of October 7 remains immense for Israelis. Numerous initiatives, often local, have been put in place to ensure psychological monitoring of those who need it, and to enable the population to cope with the situation.

Collective therapy in the open air, in a garden near Tel Aviv. Survivors of the music festival attacked by Hamas terrorists reunite. With the help of psychologists, they try to come to terms with the aftermath. Yarin Hadida and her sister Shiraz are more inseparable than ever. “For me, time stopped there. I feel like I’m still there, in danger. I can’t get back to my daily routine“, he confides.

Volunteer therapy

In the evening, when you are alone with yourself, you cannot sleep“, says Shiraz. The psychotherapist, Hadar Kidman Garsia, intervenes on a voluntary basis. She closed her practice to devote herself to the despairs of these young people. “The important thing is that they don’t stay locked up at home, watching TV and all these anxiety-provoking images. Here we protect them, we tell them that they are not alone in this process“, she explains.
