Robert Bergerh
25 years experience. I see everybody and I love kids. My approach is psychodynamic rather than cognitive behavioral. Glad to explain the difference to you if you don’t know those terms. I generally see people over a period of at least a few years. And former patients say that they appreciate the results we get.
First session
I’m gratified to see a new client with a bit more hope after a first session.
Strengths
On the one hand, I’m told I’m rather more casual than other therapists. But I can also be quite firm and directive. In the interest of obtaining our therapeutic goals.
Ideal clients
I enjoy clients with previous therapy experience.They are invariably more appreciative of our efforts than clients without. Apart from that it’s difficult for me to describe an ideal client because it’s the infinite variety that is one of the most fascinating parts of my job. I guess I could add that an ideal. Client understands that this work doesn’t produce results overnight.
Treatment methods
Psychodynamic
Starting in the present, we explore feelings (especially troublesome one’s) and trace their origins back in time.
