About Regina
Regina Kilberg is a California licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people understand their inner experience and how it shapes relationships. Regina aims to create an open space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgment.
Regina draws on attachment ideas and psychodynamic perspectives to look at patterns that began earlier in life. She adapts her approach to meet each person where they are and to address the problems they bring to sessions.
How Regina works
Her work includes relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, and communication problems. She also helps with mood and stress issues such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and sleep or eating struggles. Trauma, grief, and attachment-related difficulties are part of her caseload, as are identity and LGBT-related concerns.
Regina lists coaching and practical coping skills among her supports for life change and transitions. Regina pays attention to how past losses, adoption and foster care experiences, or caregiver strain shape behavior today. She addresses patterns like codependency, avoidant or dependent personality traits, and struggles with commitment or control.
Her aim is to help people notice repetitive cycles and try new ways of relating. Sessions mix listening, reflection, and skills practice rooted in mindfulness and emotion-focused work. Regina works collaboratively with each person to set goals and track progress, and she frames therapy as an ongoing conversation rather than a one-size-fits-all solution.

How attachment and emotion-focused work translates online
Attachment-Based Therapy emphasizes how early bonds shape current relationships; online sessions use conversations and reflective questions to identify those patterns and try new ways of relating. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people recognize and name strong feelings, track what those feelings do in relationships, and practice different responses to improve connection. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathy and collaboration, giving people a chance to lead the direction of each session while the therapist follows and reflects.Finding the right approach is a process and is done together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on how useful they feel. This collaborative stance helps shape a plan that fits the person's needs and preferences rather than imposing a single method.
Online formats offer practical benefits: video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper emotional work, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for brief check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep momentum between meetings.
