Krista Regedanz, PHD

I contacted Krista after some first time panic attacks related to work. Although Krista did not take my insurance, she called me and we did a 20 min. phone session. I can honestly say that I learned more about what was going on with me in 20 min than I had with my insurance appointed therapist in 5 visits… Krista is energetic, intelligent and knows what it is like to live in the corporate world and the stress that may bring. She is fantastic and I would say go see her if you can…

She makes you think. A simple question or phrase posed at the right time can make you more aware. I always feel good after talking with Krista. She changed the way I feel about something by helping me to see it in a different light. That’s pretty cool.

Krista is compassionate, kind, and honest. She has an amazing capacity to listen and offer thoughtful insights and alternatives to processing and dealing with the stressors in our lives. I highly recommend Krista. She is amazing.

I feel so lucky to have found Krista. I entered her office feeling stressed-​out and worried. Within a few minutes I felt calm and relaxed. Just being in her presence is healing. The way she listened and empathized with what I was experiencing made me feel validated and cared for. I have been to other therapists over the years and working with Krista is different. Instead of talking at me, she was talking with me. I really look forward to my visits with Krista because I start to feel better immediately. More importantly, Krista helps me develop strategies that I take out the door with me to make real positive change in my life. Hurdles that seemed insurmountable before are now manageable. Thanks Krista, you are the best!

It is difficult to write a review for Krista Regedanz that really does her justice. She can take anything! and turn it into a positive. I have never left her sessions feeling down, nor have I gone back to her feeling apprehensive. It is not the typical experience of unloading but a constructive experience to look at situations, people or life from different angels. She has lifted a tremendous weight off my shoulders, but more importantly, she has given me tools to help me prevent this load from returning. I have been able to apply her strategy to other aspects in my life and trimmed the pressure way down. I feel I have a bounce in my step when i go to work, I enjoy (most) everyday and don’t just hunger for the weekend. Krista is a blast, great humor and a wonderful therapist with an immense soul.

There are several things that I like about Krista that distinguishes her from other Psychologists. She finds the issues her clients are struggling with and tries to help them in the shortest period of time rather than years of ongoing therapy. She doesn’t just listen and have her clients do all the talking but she engages them throughout the session and it is a two way communication which she provides a lot of professional opinions. Living in Bay Area with so much diversity makes it difficult to understand all cultural traditions and difficulties many people deal with on a daily bases with their relatives, friends and even co-​workers. But Krista finds a way to first understand these issues and then helps her clients with the best possible remedies. I liked talking to her and will definitely recommend her to other.

I think a lot of the time we know the answers we’re looking for but it takes someone professional, kind and grounded to help us sift through chaos and harsh realities to discover this– Krista is that person. She clearly cares about her clients and has the skills to help them.

Talking with Krista is like having warm cookies with cold milk, you just feel better for it! I attended her teleseminar on «Resilience in This Economy» and she offers up some amazingly helpful information; true real-​world coping skills. Awesome for me as a small business owner, and as a member of the human race.

Went to one of Dr R’s Seminars at the Mountain View Library.
–She does a series of them
VERY INFORMATIVE!
Great suggestions (from breathing to exercise) on how to keep stress at bay.
My suggestion if you are overworked… Call Dr. R !!

I’ve gotten so much out of working with Dr. Regedanz over the years and realized it was about time I wrote a review.
I’m a pretty creative person who makes it a habit to try to think outside the box. When I look for a psychologist or coach, it’s because, in spite of my skills, I’m having trouble seeing the forest for the trees. I’m looking for new ways to look at my problems, and as a result, I want creative solutions. Over and over I’ve been impressed by Dr. Regedanz ability to shine a light on things in a way that makes the process fun. By the end of a session, I walk away with new things to try out… and I came up with them… but it’s like she asked the right questions so that I can create my own new way of approaching an issue.
I also want to say something about trust. I don’t know about you, but for me, trust is essential for a working relationship that’s purpose is to create change. I suppose it’s the foundation of any relationship. Put another way, I’m not open to working with just anyone. To see myself and my challenges (be it a communication breakdown I’m having at work or trouble with a life transition)…to try out new ideas, I have to trust the person asking the questions. With Dr. Regedanz it’s not just her professional background and years of experience, it’s also who she is, her sense of humor, her compassion. I trust her and that’s saying a lot.
They say that it’s healthy people who go to therapists… it’s the unhealthy who avoid them. If you’re looking for a psychologist or a coach, I highly recommend Dr. Regedanz. Again and again, working with her has paid off for me in dividends.
