About me
Hello! And welcome your adventure into healing. Glad you have chosen to join Regain.
I provide collaborative counseling services to couples whose lives have been ripped apart due to anger, conflict, loss/grief and shattered dreams.
Unresolved pain and fear from "doin' life" fuels anger and other behaviors that destroy relationships and turn life into a cardboard dirt sandwich with a side of sawdust.
Get started on your healing today. Reach out. Schedule a session. Sometimes that first session can change your world.
I collaborate with couples looking to improve the quality of their individual lives and relationship dynamic by understanding how their personal stories (narratives of their past, present and future), personalities, and temperament influence their individual psychological fitness skill-sets (coping, problem solving, and communicating) and influence how they relate to each other.
Using Narrative, Cognitive Behavioral, and Client-Center Therapy techniques and psychoeducation, I help couples identify and accept their personality traits, temperament characteristics, life story, and personally defined wants & needs. Then, we craft new, future-focused narratives and begin the healing process.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Bob Zima. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Bob is an amazing therapist and extremely helpful.
My fiance and I started therapy with Bob several months ago and he never ceases to surprise us with his ability to listen and really grab onto the real reasons why there is miscommunication, tension or even happiness and care between us. Personally I have had at least 3 therapists in my life prior to Bob and he tops them all. He is funny and very skilled. Both me and my fiance are beyond happy that we started therapy with him.
Bob has a sincere caring manner. His energy is supportive and encouraging. He checks in on me throughout the week and makes himself available whenever I need to talk or sort out my thoughts. Im happy that I found him on this platform and I highly recommend him for counseling.
Bob gives you attainable goals and sets forth a plan for you to reach them. He has exceeded my expectations and our family has changed for the better because of the tools he has given us.
Bob has been a wonderful couples therapist for my husband and I. He listens and helps us work through our issues. We are so thankful for him helping us communicate better.
Bob has been more helpful in our process of healing than we could have ever imagined. Working in therapy and collaborating with him has been priceless. So glad our paths crossed! Thank you.
Bob made it very easy and natural to talk about things I didn’t expect to talk about and also allowed me to understand other perspectives.
Robert is amazing and understanding.
