Introduction to Dr. Berchick

 In my psychology practice over the past forty years, I have been known for being client-centered, working collaboratively with each individual's values, aspirations, and goals. Together, you and I will explore and learn strategies to help you fulfill your hopes and dreams.

Thus, we will work together to help you identify implicit and explicit memories and thoughts that may have affected how you felt, behaved, and perceived things in a hurtful, as opposed to our goal of a helpful and adaptive way.

In addition to being a Psychotherapist and a Clinical Supervisor, I have research experience in Depression, Panic Disorder, Generalized Anxiety, Suicide Prediction and Prevention, Special Teens at Risk, Social Anxiety, and more.

Among other writings, I co-authored often-cited professional journal articles and co-authored chapters for popular edited professional books. And in 2023, I co-authored a chapter published in Cognitive-Behavioral Strategies in Crisis Intervention (4th edition). Also, I have been a presenter or co-presenter of numerous professional lectures or conferences, both nationally and internationally. 

I was a member of ABCT's Neurocognitive Therapies/Translational Research Special Interest Group, serving on the 2015 Conference Planning Committee.

Additionally, I was a member of ABCT's Dissemination and Implementation Science Special Interest Group, where I served on the Acceptability Measure Work Group.

I have provided numerous businesses and hospitals with consultation services and positive psychology webinars. 

Also, I served in various roles and functions for a few Township Police Departments, such as hostage negotiations and crisis interventions, and provided Post-Traumatic treatment for police officers.

Several newspapers and popular magazines interviewed me, and I appeared on numerous local news broadcasts.

For perceptions by my peers, I invite you to read the professional recommendation letters.
