Dr. Berg received his Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology in 1974 from Purdue University, completing an internship at the Pittsburgh Child Guidance Center (since merged with Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic). He was a faculty member in psychology at the University of Dayton from 1974-1989, teaching undergraduate and graduate students, conducting research on the games, and engaging in private practice. On the topic of Game Therapy, he has led 11 Cape Cod Summer Workshops, presented several 1-day workshops to schools, hospitals and mental health centers, and led a workshop at an annual meeting of the American Psychological Association.

He is currently in private practice, frequently using the games that are the subject of the workshop.
