Virtual Therapy For Couples, Individuals & Families In All Stages Of Relationships

Zev Berkowitz, LCSW

Rekindle. Reconnect. Recommit.

I’m Zev and I’m so glad you’re here.

Relationships are complicated, but they don’t have to feel impossible. As a licensed couples therapist for more than 20 years, I work with couples from all walks of life. The clients who seek couples counseling often share similar challenges, including:

  • Communication and miscommunication challenges

  • Intimacy, desire and connection challenges

  • Trust, attachment and feeling emotionally safe with one another

  • Worries about infidelity, breaking up or falling out of love

  • When there are substance or behavioral compulsions, fears around relapse, codependency and dishonest abound.

Individuals from all walks of life can struggle in these ways, including premarital, married, straight, and LGBTQ+ partnerships. From my training, I am especially skilled at helping high-conflict couples reconnect so they feel valued and heard.

If this is your marriage or your relationship, you are in the right place. Reach out for a complimentary consultation today to see if working together is right for you.

Expertise Beyond Couples

While my primary focus is couples therapy, I also have extensive experience working with teenagers and individuals struggling with anxiety disorders and compulsive behaviors. I have worked in the field for more than 20 years and offer a depth of experience to all clients I work with. Together, we face challenges, decrease painful emotions and so you grow with confidence.

  • I have worked with Zev Berkowitz for the past 2 years and would highly recommend. Zev is inviting and easy to talk to but challenges you to work on yourself and the issues that you may be facing. We worked on couples therapy first and now I continue to use Zev as a personal therapist to work on my personal challenges. He is also very flexible with his schedule, and always available to talk or even text.

    REBECCA HUNT

  • My spouse and I were at our lowest point after infidelity shattered our trust. Working with Zev was nothing short of transformative. He helped us confront the pain and rebuild trust step by step, teaching us how to communicate openly without fear or judgment. Zev’s compassion, expertise, and structured approach gave us tools to heal and reconnect on a deeper level than we ever thought possible. We are now in a place of mutual respect and understanding, and I can honestly say we wouldn’t have made it without him.

    JOEL R.

  • Zev’s work with us on porn addiction was life-changing. He created a safe space where we could address the impact it had on our relationship without shame or blame. His nonjudgmental guidance helped us understand the root causes and develop healthier ways to reconnect emotionally and physically. The exercises he introduced for intimacy were thoughtful and effective, allowing us to rebuild a closeness we hadn’t felt in years. Zev’s insight and practical tools gave us a renewed sense of hope and love in our marriage.

    ESTHER C.

  • Before meeting Zev, my spouse and I couldn’t have a conversation without it turning into a heated argument. We felt stuck in a cycle of blame and defensiveness. Zev taught us practical, easy-to-understand communication techniques that completely changed how we interact. From learning to listen with empathy to expressing ourselves clearly and calmly, his approach made conflict manageable instead of destructive. Zev showed us that disagreements don’t have to break us—they can bring us closer. We’ve never felt more connected or equipped to handle challenges together.

    SOL J.

  • Zev’s expertise in the Gottman and Imago relationship techniques truly saved our marriage. He showed us how to identify and break free from toxic patterns that were tearing us apart. Through the Gottman Method, we learned how to recognize the "Four Horsemen" behaviors and replace them with healthier ways of communicating. With Imago Therapy, Zev guided us through powerful exercises that helped us deeply understand and validate each other’s experiences. These methods were practical and eye-opening, creating a level of empathy and connection we’d never felt before. Thanks to Zev, we now have a strong foundation and the tools to keep growing together.

    JULIE D.

  • Zev’s support was life-changing for me as I struggled with severe anxiety and frequent panic attacks. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and other techniques, he helped me identify and challenge the thoughts fueling my anxiety. Zev also taught me practical tools to manage panic attacks in the moment, which gave me back a sense of control over my life. His calm and compassionate approach made me feel understood and empowered. I can now face situations that once felt impossible, and I’m so grateful for his guidance.

My Approach to Couples Therapy

When your relationship feels broken or worn down by misunderstandings, betrayal, or disconnection, it’s natural to wonder if things can be repaired. As a couple’s therapist, I believe every relationship deserves the opportunity to evolve—even if the path forward feels uncertain or challenging. 

My role isn’t to direct you toward a specific outcome but to support you and your partner as you discover your own path. Whether that means strengthening your bond or parting ways with mutual understanding and respect, we’ll explore what is possible together.

How Do You Know if Couples Therapy is Right For You?

If you and your partner face challenges that seem difficult to resolve alone—whether around communication, trust, intimacy, or recurring conflicts—couples therapy is a safe, structured space to work through these issues. Even if your partner is unsure about therapy, we can work on that together so you get the healing you need.

Virtual Relationship Therapy for All Stages of Partnership

You may be new to dating, in a committed relationship, or considering separation, however navigating the complexities of relationships can often feel overwhelming. You might find yourself wondering:

  • Why do we keep having the same argument over and over?

  • Will we ever feel close again?

  • Is it too late to fix what’s broken?

Whether you’re working to build a strong foundation in the early days of dating, addressing longstanding patterns in a committed relationship, or finding clarity during a separation, I’m here to guide you toward meaningful connection and lasting growth.

Infidelity Recovery Counseling

The betrayal of infidelity can leave you feeling lost, overwhelmed, and questioning everything about your relationship. Despite the pain, know you are not alone. 

You may be asking yourself:

  • Why did this happen?

  • Will I ever be able to trust my partner again?

  • Should we tell the kids, friends or family?

  • Is the affair over?

  • Will they cheat again?

  • Can we ever get back to the way things were?

  • Should I stay or leave?

These are deeply personal and difficult questions, and the journey forward isn’t always clear. My infidelity recovery counseling is here to help you make sense of the pain, rebuild trust, and discover a way forward—whether that means reconciliation or finding peace on your own.

Virtual Therapy for Relationships Struggling with Behavioral Compulsions

Behavioral compulsions can undermine trust, intimacy, and communication, leaving partners feeling isolated or frustrated. 

Therapy provides a structured, compassionate space where you can:

  • Explore the unmet needs that lead to compulsive behaviors.

  • Address the underlying emotions that feed ongoing compulsive behaviors.

  • Understand how these behaviors impact your relationship.

  • Explore options to minimize, reduce or end such behaviors.

  • Develop tools to heal and rebuild.

Compulsive behaviors are a signal that something else is going on that needs to be addressed. Therapy will help you get to the heart of the challenges so you (and your partner/family) can move on with your life.

Rebuild Communication, Trust & Intimacy

Have you ever felt like no matter what you say, your partner doesn’t truly hear you? Or perhaps trust has been shaken, leaving you wondering if your relationship can recover? Maybe the spark of intimacy feels distant, and you’re unsure how to reconnect.

These struggles are common—but they don’t have to define your relationship.

Understanding trust, communication, & intimacy counseling is designed to help couples rebuild trust, improve communication, and reignite intimacy.

Whether you’re facing unresolved conflicts, the aftermath of betrayal, or simply feeling disconnected, I’m here to guide you toward clarity, connection, and lasting growth.

Virtual Therapy for Blended and Mixed Families

Families in general often reach out for psychotherapy when difficulties begin to affect their relationships, daily interactions, or emotional well-being. Blended and mixed families bring both unique challenges and incredible opportunities for connection and growth. 

You might find yourself asking:

  • How can we bring two different families together without losing our individual identities?

  • What if my child struggles to accept my partner or new family members?

  • How do we navigate cultural or religious differences in a way that feels respectful and unifying?

These are not uncommon concerns, and you don’t have to navigate them alone. My therapy practice is here to help you and your family find clarity, harmony, and a shared path forward.
