Dr. Zivit Abramson was born in Israel in 1938. She is a psychologist and a senior faculty at the School of Adlerian Psychotherapy, Alfred Adler Institute, Israel. In the early years of the Adlerian movement in Israel, at a time when there was only one channel on the Israeli T.V., she hosted (alternating with Achi Yotam) a program in which live families were receiving Adler-Dreikurs counseling. The program ran three times a week for seven years. The program raised a generation of Israeli children according to these principles. For decades, she also wrote weekly columns in the most-read papers in the country, offering Adler-Dreikurs tips and advice.
