Boris Herzberg

Counselor

Verified

I specialize in online couples therapy and counseling with a strong focus on conflict repair and emotional regulation for expat, intercultural and long-distance couples. I'm an ACCPH-accredited member.

About Me

Relationship and couples therapist, counselor and coach with over 10 years of professional experience and working with 1500+ clients, I hold couples therapy as a unifying experience. Being married myself and parenting four kids, I place the utmost importance on the value of relationships. I've seen how much relationships can withstand, even in moments when it feels like everything is coming apart, if both partners are willing to stay in sustained dialogue. In our meetings we'll identify what drives the tension in your relationship and explore ways to work through it. I also know that in order to address what's not working, it's equally important to recognize and build on what's good and positive between you. To support all that, you'll have an accommodating and non-judgmental space where you can share and discuss openly and safely what matters to you the most. My services are available to you online, whether you come as a couple or individually.

Approach

I help couples and individuals who: -Feel exhausted and frustrated because their partner doesn't seem to understand them -Keep having the same fights over and over, and nothing ever gets resolved -Are losing emotional and physical closeness, but love each other and cherish the hope to establish a productive dialogue -Need support in getting through stressful events or significant life changes (like having a baby, moving, pregnancy-related stress, losing a family member, or other major transitions) -Find it difficult to process anger: they either burst or withdraw, periods of prolonged silence included -Feel overwhelmed with emotions that drain their energy (like disappointment, suppressed anger, feeling of emptiness, guilt, etc) -Tired of the same patterns repeating If you’d like to get a sense of how I think and work before we meet, you’re welcome to explore my Psychology Today blog for insights into relationships and emotional regulation: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/contributors/boris-herzberg I offer a 20-minute intro call to see if we’re a good fit for working together on an ongoing basis.
