Sex Therapists in Atascadero, CA

Greetings! I'm Kris and I love facilitating therapeutic work with individuals and couples who are looking to explore, enhance, and heal various aspects of our complicated lives. My practice addresses life challenges using a holistic perspective, blending several treatment approaches. I am a Sex Therapist, and specialize in working with: clients with sexual traumas queer, trans and nonbinary folx, those experiencing sexual difficulties (whether personally or in their relationship), and those in seasons of change. As my client, I hope you'll find a safe, nonjudgmental atmosphere.

Are you feeling anxious, depressed, or overwhelmed and are not sure why? Have you been having relationship problems? Reaching out for help shows just how much strength you have. We will work together to identify and leverage your strengths to become calmer and less anxious, more motivated and less depressed. You can expect to develop practical coping skills that you can apply in your everyday life for better relationships and better functioning so that you can thrive. Relationships are our greatest resource yet can also be the source of our greatest challenges. We will work together to restore and enhance your relationships.

Do you feel lost, hurt, and misunderstood? Does your life seem overwhelming and confusing? My purpose and my passion are to help you improve your quality of life. You have already made a step towards healing by considering help. I’d like to accompany you on this journey to a point where you feel more content, balanced, and grounded. You deserve to experience more joy and satisfaction in life.

Are you both tired of not feeling heard or understood? Do you feel as though being close is a distant memory? Are you wondering what brought you two together in the first place? If so, now is the time to work on your relationship. Too many couples wait until there is too little to salvage. There is nothing more precious than love, no larger feeling than love, and there is no greater pain when love is lost. Let's work together to get back to yours!

I have been successful helping clients return to healthy and dynamic lives who have experienced severe anxiety, depression, and debilitating trauma from physical, emotional and sexual abuse. I have also helped families and couples with relationship issues including; frustrated parents with young children and/or challenging teenagers, couples stuck in bad communication cycles, and people who have lost themselves, their motivation and direction.

It is important that my patients feel respected and encouraged. My job is to really listen and help you feel understood. I also think my role is to give you lots of feedback and not just be a passive listener saying, "uh, uh, hmm, I see, hmm". I am a coach, cheerleader, teacher, confidante, and accountability partner. The biggest complaint I have heard over the years about any past therapists whom patients felt were not helpful was the complaint that the past therapist was way too passive. I work best with those that want a therapist high in empathy but is not passive.

If we meet and you decide to not continue, there will be no charge. This is because a positive relationship between therapist and client is the #1 predictor of a successful outcome.

There comes a time when we need help. I appreciate the courage anyone demonstrates when they make that call. I hope to create a space where individuals and families can receive that trusted assistance. I have been a therapist for thirty years. I was a tennis pro for ten years before that. I am aware of the process of change. There is a timing when an individual, or family, is ready to make those adjustments. In working with children, I involve the whole family. I especially enjoy the travels that the adolescent makes, and the perplexing attempts parents make in adjusting to this challenging phase. I work with addictions.

Hi there! My name is Madai Zesati and I am Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Ontario, California, and working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with teens, young adults, and older adults. I work collaboratively with each client, as well as providing a safe and supportive environment to help them get to a place of self-acceptance and find strength within to address life's challenges, by assisting them in realizing, cultivating, and accessing internal and external resources to make positive changes in life.

Stressed? Burned out? Anxious? Depressed? Overwhelmed by the world? Difficulty communicating? Feeling disconnected from your partner or yourself? The world is a crazy messy place sometimes (especially lately). Our past and current circumstances often create a difficult place to be in our thoughts and our feelings and we often can feel “stuck” in our current circumstances. Some of us carry really heavy burdens and keep on a brave face for those around us because for a lot of reasons like our jobs, roles at home, family, friends, keeping up with the Joneses, you name it!

Few of us make it through childhood without having experienced trauma of one form or another. Often times, the adaptations that we make in order to best survive early life challenges, lead to patterns of belief and action which get in the way of us finding freedom, happiness, and fulfillment as adolescents and adults. Every person deserves an opportunity to grow to their greatest potential. Therapy is a facilitated process of increasing awareness of obstacles to growth and supporting transformation.

I'm a clinical psychologist practicing with those who suffer from loneliness, anxiety, obsessions, trauma, anger, aloofness, issues of identity and intimacy, difficult life circumstances, and many other problems. While I greatly value knowledge about psychopathology, I find a strictly diagnosis-based approach to be limiting. Instead, we might be curious together about the many aspects of life that bear on your particular suffering. This broad exploration and discovery can only happen in a safe and confidential relationship. I feel so privileged when someone chooses to reveal themselves to me on these deeply personal levels.

If you are overwhelmed by life and emotions, or just feeling like something is off, therapy can help. Life can be strange, painful and unpredictable. Maybe you are struggling with a relationship, or even ending one. Let's sort through your thoughts and feelings and figure out what you need to move forward and connect you back to yourself or your partner. My office is a comfortable space, where you can share your story, speak your mind and create a more balanced and fulfilling life.

I have been in private practice, in California for 35 years. The focus of my practice is psychotherapy with adults and adolescents and I also provide couples counseling. My patients come from personal referrals, other professionals, previous patients and internet advertising such as this listing. Through continuing education and consultation with colleagues I maintain a high quailty in the services I provide.
