Therapists in Beverly Hills, CA

Treatment is different with each person. At the heart of my therapeutic approach is careful, thoughtful and non-judgmental listening. It is important that you feel understood and comfortable that we can work together collaboratively. Beginning therapy, people hope to find relief, feel ambivalent, are unsure about their wants and fear the unknown. I view psychotherapy as a two-person process. We will focus on understanding your feelings, struggles and the roots of repetitive life patterns and relationships. This approach will help you to develop individualized ways of decreasing suffering, promoting insight, improving self-esteem and regaining self-control.

Do you need support finding your life’s purpose? Do you feel overwhelmed? Do you find it difficult to feel pain and face your shadows? While considering the whole person- heart, soul, mind and body, I trust that you enter therapy having the insight you need to navigate your distress. I use the term "depth emergence" to explain my orientation and approach. It stems from depth psychology, which emphasizes gaining access to the unconscious and bringing it into consciousness. While increasing awareness we derive meaning, evolve, and transform.

My practice is devoted to working with adults, adolescents and couples to help them deal with difficulties in their relationships and in their personal lives. I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist, and I am continually honored and intrigued by being able to help people in their lives. I received my degrees (Summa Cum Laude) from Washington University, and my doctorate in Psychology is from CSPP. In addition to my years of work in private practice, my experience includes years of intensive supervised client counseling, and now I am a supervisor at a well established clinic, in addition to my practice.

We all have those moments where we feel overwhelmed with life. Sometimes what we need is to develop new skills and to approach our lives from a different perspective. I place emphasis on creating a safe and supportive space where each individual client can explore and address their inner struggles to bring about a more resilient, steady, and content life.

Do you sometimes feel out of balance? Do you struggle to lead a happier and more fulfilling life? Are you stressed and anxious? Therapy is a place to explore internal processes, relationships and connections with oneself and others. It also helps to stimulate a heightened self-awareness. Finding the right thearpist with whom one can trust is vital. I can help you work through painful emotions. My goal is to help others better understand their needs and how the patterns of their own dance, affect their lives.

Thank you for taking time to read about my work. I am a clinical psychologist (PhD, UCLA, 1991) and have been providing psychotherapy to individuals and couples for over twenty five years. My approach integrates insight oriented/depth psychotherapy with mindfulness/meditation within a framework of body awareness. A central part of therapy is the mutually created caring and healing relationship. If we work together, time will be devoted to building a trusting, safe and containing relationship where early (developmental) as well as more recent challenges can be discussed, explored and healed.

All the lonely people, where do they all come from? Is this you? You can be in a relationship or single, yet still feel lonely. Are you not living the life you want? Do you rush around and not pay attention to yourself or do you retreat into yourself sadly and quietly? If you want to change, it is not easy; but it can be a lot easier with a well-trained, highly experienced and compassionate therapist who can help you to move forward.

I truly admire those willing to embark on the courageous journey towards transformation, and I am honored to stand beside them in their quest for happier, more productive and successful lives. I understand individuals can experience pain associated with tremendous fear and shame that often prevents them from living healthy and authentic lives. I facilitate a nurturing environment for individuals, couples and adolescents seeking to explore and understand themselves more fully through reflection and attunement.

If, as you got into bed last night, you looked at the pile of self-help books from Barnes & Noble on your bedstand and thought I could’ve bought myself something pretty with that money, take a look at my web page (robertbergerpsychotherapy.com) and give me a call. Maybe it’s time for you to move up to the big leagues and start doing the work and changing the way it feels being you.

Buddha's quote "The mind is everything. What you think you become", has always been at the center of my beliefs, both personally and professionally. Therefore, I view therapy as a tool that enables us to transcend beyond our previously adopted and perhaps less effective ways of coping with life's challenges, and begin to relearn new ways of dealing with challenges as they arise. This will in turn open up many new windows to self-awareness, ultimately bringing about personal growth and satisfaction both internally and within the context of our relationships, allowing us to live happier more fulfilled lives.

"Being listened to." That is the experience of being at the Saturday Center: intensely, deeply, actively, empathically listened to; seen, heard and understood. For over 30 years we have provided this type of counseling and psychotherapy to individuals, couples, and families. TSC is committed to dynamic psychotherapy and to providing treatment based on need rather than economics. The Center is staffed by advanced psychological interns, psychological assistants and marriage & family therapist interns who are supervised by a group of experienced, licensed private practitioners dedicated to the practice and teaching of psychotherapy.

Life can present many challenges. Most of the time, we can successfully handle the trials and tribulations of daily living; but occasionally we get overwhelmed. To help cope and feel much better, we consult a professional who sorts and sheds light on the elements that caused these challenges. In the process, we talk about how we feel and why we feel the way we do. Most importantly, we learn to successfully handle the initiating emotional triggers in a way such that the resultant problems no longer arise. My Los Angeles therapy practice is dediated to being that caring professional.

The goal of therapy is to develop an awareness of our emotional patterns and recognize where they are not serving us. Many of us are operating within a problem saturated narrative that needs to be rewritten. It is my experience that the problems don’t occur in a bubble. I believe that issues are systemic, therefore I will often incorporate partners or members of the Family in the healing and growth process. I find my training in mediation practices further equip me to deal effectively with dysfunction family communication patterns.

I received my Masters degree from Philips Graduate Institute in 2003, and have been providing services to children, couples, families, elders and adolescents in different settings such as Private Practice, hospitals, and Health Care centers. I use different approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Awareness Integration Model, Family systems and so on. Services: Life Coaching; Couple Therapy and Coaching; Family Therapy and Coaching; Hypnosis; Individual Therapy for Adolescents, Children, Elderly, Men and Women; Parenting; Family Therapy; Sex Therapy; Relationship and Intimacy; Stress Management, and so on.

I value the bravery it takes to prioritize mental health care and listen to the part of yourself seeking change.

To foster lasting change, we work to understand the causes of your symptoms and the dynamics of your emotional life.

I believe that through real connection and authenticity, we can get to know ourselves in a deeper way in order to make lasting and impactful change. I have experience working with individuals, couples, and families from a variety of backgrounds, and extensive experience working with diverse populations. I have a particular interest in working with individuals struggling with relationships and intimacy, individuals navigating difficult family/parenting dynamics, individuals who feel they would like a richer and more meaningful connection to others, and those struggling to find acceptance of and confidence in their own humanity.
