About Rabbi Gabay

Healthy Jewish Marriages was founded and is currently run by Rabbi Meyer Yisrael Gabay, Torah scholar, NLP practitioner and certified marriage coach. After working with countless numbers of couples in crises, Rabbi Gabay was determined to trace back their marriage difficulties in search of the critical point where the marriage started it’s deterioration. He believed that to expose the roots to these marriage problems, and to search for the wisdom in our heritage that advised us in the way to act about them, will shed light for all others to stay clear from those dangers. He founded Healthy Jewish Marriages with the intention to prevent and address the source of these conflicts before they develop into much deeper and more complex issues.
R. Meyer Gabay has been lecturing on Marriage health for over 10 years.
He founded the HJM, an organization for spreading these lectures to the Jewish community, world wide.
