About me
As a licensed clinical psychologist in California with 18 years of experience, I am passionate about helping couples strengthen their relationships and navigate the challenges that can arise in intimate partnerships. My extensive work with couples has provided me with deep insights into the complexities of relationships, and I am committed to offering a supportive, nonjudgmental space where both partners can feel heard and understood.
I have helped couples work through a variety of issues, including communication breakdowns, trust and infidelity, intimacy concerns, parenting conflicts, and the stressors that come with life transitions. Whether you’re struggling with longstanding issues or seeking to enhance an already strong relationship, I tailor our sessions to meet your specific needs and goals.
In my practice, I utilize evidence-based treatment modalities that are proven to be effective in couples therapy. Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is one of the primary approaches I use, which focuses on helping couples understand and reshape the emotional dynamics in their relationship. This approach is particularly powerful in rebuilding trust and fostering a deeper emotional connection.
I also incorporate elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for couples, which helps partners identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that may be contributing to their conflicts. Additional treatment modalities are utilized to help couples improve communication, manage conflict, and build a stronger foundation for their relationship.
Every relationship is unique, and I believe in working collaboratively with couples to create a personalized approach that aligns with their values and aspirations. Taking the step to seek couples therapy is a brave and meaningful decision, and I am here to guide you both toward a more fulfilling and harmonious partnership.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kathleen Puleo. 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.
So amazing at her her job, truly goes above and beyond? so grateful to have found you
She is understanding and listens to what you feel and need help with.
Excellent therapist. She has been extremely beneficial in helping my husband and I repair and strengthen our marriage
Kathleen is a wonderful therapist. We have only done one live session so far, but have been communicating and plan on doing more sessions with her. I have had plenty of therapist and I feel like I haven’t connected with them like I have with Kathleen
