Are you tending to your spirit?

If you want your Judaism with more: beauty, inspiration, and joy; and less: bureaucracy, anxiety, and guilt…book a free 15-minute consultation with Rabbi Zuker.

Rabbi Zuker offers personalized spiritual counselling services, no matter where you are on the religious spectrum: observant, cultural, “just Jewish”, or Jewish-adjacent.

Have you reached a challenging moment in your life – a death, a diagnosis, a divorce, or some type of family fallout? Do you struggle to feel that your spiritual needs are being met?

Maybe you’ve reached a new stage of life and you’re re-evaluating, well, everything? You may be experiencing a growing hunger for faith and the traditions of Judaism and are looking to explore how to make them a more meaningful—and more joyful—part of your everyday life?

For the last decade, Rabbi Zuker has been dedicated to providing compassionate, confidential support and guidance to individuals and families in the Ottawa community and beyond. She believes that staying connected to Jewish traditions doesn’t have to come at the expense of our most deeply held values—or individual identities.

“When I was looking to convert to Judaism, I chose to study with Rabbi Zuker because of her welcoming attitude and progressive approach. Over the course of a year we met dozens of times to study and discuss key Jewish texts and ideas. I was always encouraged to share my views and ask questions. The process turned out to be one of the most formative experiences of my spiritual life and gave me a framework which I continue to apply to my study and practice of Judaism today. 

Rabbi Zuker was the one to welcome our daughter into the Jewish community with a beautiful baby naming ceremony (brit bat) that was meaningful for both my Jewish in-laws and (as a convert) my non-Jewish immediate family. It is a memory that my wife and I cherish."

“Our son worked virtually with Rabbi Zuker for 6 months prior to his Bar Mitzvah. They formed an immediate connection—she helped stimulate his motivation and interest in his studies. Rabbi Zuker helped us create a service that aligned with our values and vision for the day. We could not have done it without her. Our younger son has already requested that she officiate his Bar Mitzvah when the time comes!”
