Dr.
Bergen has been a counselor for over thirty years. It was
his marriage twenty years ago that catapulted him into an
acute awareness of the healing force that relationships
exert. Choosing to face head on the (MALE-FEMALE) forces
pulling at their love, he and his wife emerged with renewed
appreciation of the power of archetypes and the down to
earth relevance of approaching love as the spiritual force
that it is.
Since
then Dr. Bergen has devoted himself exclusively to working
with couples. He runs a private practice for couples from
his offices in Woodstock, N.Y. and New York City. He lectures,
conducts groups and seminars, and runs week-end retreats
from his facilities in Woodstock, N.Y. These retreats are
for individual couples interested in intensifying their
relationship.
Dr.
Bergen holds a Ph.D. in Psychology and Religions from New
York University, and he is an ordained Spiritual counselor
in the Interfaith tradition.
Before
devoting himself to couples work, Dr. Bergen taught in College
and University, in both undergraduate and graduate programs.
Most recently he taught courses in the Graduate programs
of Fairfield University and The State University of New
York.
