John Rego, LMFT

LMFT licensed in California with 20 years of experience, John Rego helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and life changes. He also addresses addictions, parenting challenges, career concerns, mood disorders such as depression and bipolar, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. John practices in English and works from a clinical, conversational approach aimed at clear, practical steps.

John uses attachment-based work to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. He also draws on client-centered and cognitive behavioral methods to focus on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. Sessions are focused and direct, with attention to immediate problems and longer-term patterns.

In session, John talks through specific situations and helps people test small changes between meetings. He may suggest exercises to try at home and check progress in the next session. The work combines understanding past influences with hands-on strategies for daily life.

John’s background includes two decades of clinical practice in California with adults facing a range of emotional and relational problems. He frames the work around practical goals such as clearer communication, better mood regulation, and healthier coping with loss and stress. He explains options and works with each person to decide what to try next.

People who want straightforward conversation about real problems often find this approach useful. The initial meetings focus on identifying priorities, clarifying goals, and agreeing on small steps to take between sessions.
