Yael Muskat and Martin Galla: Entering Adulthood: Inside a College Counseling Center

Our mental health series is sponsored by Terri and Andrew Herenstein.

In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we wrap up our mental health series by talking to Dr. Yael Muskat, director of Yeshiva University’s Counseling Center, and her longtime colleague Dr. Martin Galla about the mental health challenges at the forefront of early adulthood.

Young people in the Jewish community are not immune from today’s mental health crisis. They have their own, equally pressing versions of those same problems. In this episode we discuss:
  • How do experts deal with the mental health of college students “in between” childhood and adulthood?
  • What mental health challenges to the Jewish world in particular need to address?
  • How can young adults handle the mental health turmoil that can come with dating?
Tune in to hear a conversation about how we can get to a place where sound mental health enables spiritual growth.

Interview with Dr. Muskat begins at 7:13.
Interview with Dr. Galla begins at 55:46.

Dr. Yael Muskat, Psy.D., is the Director of the Counseling Center at Yeshiva University and has over 20 years of clinical experience. After graduating from Yeshiva University, she received a Master’s in Special Education from Columbia University and a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Long Island University, C.W. Post. Dr. Muskat continued her clinical training by completing a Post Doctorate Leadership Fellowship at Westchester Institute for Human Development.

Dr. Martin Galla is a former associate director at the Yeshiva University Counseling Center, where he worked for 13 years.
