Our Vision
Our vision is to help change the conversation, the approach and the process of divorce within jewish communities. We strive to create a world where couples can end their marriages with dignity and respect, without resorting to harmful conflict or animosity. We hope to empower Jewish leaders with the skills and knowledge necessary to guide families through the divorce process in a way that prioritizes their well-being and the well-being of their families. We envision communities proudly giving voice to new and evolving family constellations.
Our Mission
Our mission is to affirm that the Jewish community has the ability to handle divorce better with the proper tools and leadership. Through our clergy training services and other resources, we aim to create a community of compassionate and knowledgeable rabbis, who are changing the isolation culture of divorce. By giving voice and support to those in this life stage, trained clergy will give families the chance to feel whole again and help realign, renew and rebuild themselves.
Leading the way towards better divorce.
Who We Are
A rabbi and a therapist joined in a shared mission to bring trauma-informed, compassionate divorce support to Jewish communities. Our training bridges clinical wisdom and Jewish values to create a more supportive communal culture.

Founder
Batsheva is a licensed psychotherapist, certified divorce specialist and certified mediator. She is the co-founder of the Jewish Divorce Project, a podcast aimed at exploring the relevant issues that Jewish divorced individuals encounter and experience. Sheva has a private practice in Boca Raton, FL and offers counseling and workshops for individuals, couples and families.
“Roughly ten years ago, I went through my own divorce, which was the catalyst that inspired me to specialize in divorce professionally. My own divorce, as well as hearing the stories of the people I work with and in my community, gave me a lot of insight into some of the challenges that come up for people who are divorcing or divorced within the Jewish community. My work is motivated by the desire to not only provide essential mental health resources, but to help change the way we view, experience and navigate divorce.”

RABBI EZRA WEINBERG is a shaliach tzibur, officiant and Jewish educator dedicated to creating connection and community. He is a native Philadelphian and holds an MA in Conflict Transformation. Reb Ezra officiates weddings and Bnai Mitzvot, teaches a university course called, "One G-d, Three Paths", alongside a priest and Imam. He currently works with individuals and families within the Jewish community and founded ReVoice, a network of resources for Jewish going through divorce.
“The work that I do is inspired by my own divorce as well as my experience as a child of high conflict divorce. A big part of my mission is to offer support in Jewish contexts when divorce radically changes a family’s path. However, I also want to change the conversation around divorce within the Jewish community today so that it is no longer taboo to get divorced or talk about divorce.”
We are grateful to the funding partners who believe in our mission and make this work possible. Their investment strengthens our ability to train community leaders, reduce stigma around divorce, and build more compassionate, resilient Jewish communities. Together, we are creating meaningful change for individuals and families during one of life’s most challenging transitions.
