Therapy that fits your life in Atascadero
Atascadero clients can consider the Los Osos office as a coastal appointment option or ask about online therapy from within California. For couples coordinating two schedules, the most useful starting point is a conversation about availability, privacy, and whether both partners can participate consistently.
Planning an appointment
Highway 41 connects Atascadero with the Morro Bay area, from which you can continue toward Los Osos. Your best route may vary with your starting point and current conditions. Confirm the appointment location at 1705 14th Street, Los Osos, CA 93402 and ask about online care if travel would make regular sessions difficult.

Moving beyond the argument about responsibilities
Disagreements about who does more can hide deeper concerns about feeling valued, supported, or alone. Couples therapy offers a chance to slow that conversation down. Dr. Regier’s Emotionally Focused approach examines the feelings and responses beneath the dispute so both people can better understand the interaction they are caught in.
Understanding how you respond under pressure
Individual therapy can focus on your own emotional reactions, relationship history, and ways of coping. You do not have to arrive with a polished explanation of what is wrong. Describing the situations that feel most difficult gives Dr. Regier a place to begin assessing your needs and discussing an appropriate course of work.
