Hi! I’m Noa Kanter, a Psychologist and the Head of Counseling Services and Safeguarding Officer at Linden Global Learning. I hold a Master’s degree in clinical child psychology from Bar-Ilan University and have several years of experience applying various therapeutic interventions in public health care clinics in Israel. Additionally, I’ve worked as a school psychologist, conducting psychoeducational assessments in the city of Holon, Israel.
Since moving to Berlin in 2016, I support families and staff from the international school community, providing counseling, psycho-educational assessments, and workshops. My workshops focus on promoting resilience, alleviating anxiety in learners, and providing positive behavioral support. As an educational psychologist, I strive to combine scientific knowledge from developmental evidence-based research with every child’s unique ecosystem. I believe in creating alliances between students, parents, and teachers to promote optimal care.
For the past 4 years, I’ve also led multiple consultation circles for international school counselors in over 52 countries, and designed and facilitated grief and crisis counseling support groups for schools facing challenges in the Middle East, Africa, and Eastern Europe.
I specialize in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), emotion-regulation difficulties, adjustment to new culture, parent consultations, teacher training, grief and crisis counseling, assessments, ADHD, school-based interventions, anxiety, and depression.
