About Kristin Zeising Psy.D., CST
Individual, Couples & Sex Therapy
Working With Me
Hi, I’m Dr. Kristin Zeising, and I’m so glad you’re here.
Life can feel overwhelming at times—whether it’s stress, relationship struggles, or facing challenges with intimacy and sexual health. You might be wondering, “Why can’t I figure this out on my own?”
It’s natural to feel like you should have all the answers—after all, you’ve managed so much in your life already. But the truth is, we all need help sometimes. Seeking support doesn’t mean you’re weak; it means you’re ready for something to change. And sometimes, having someone to walk with you through the hard parts is what makes change possible.
Let me assure you, you’re not alone, and there’s a way forward. My passion is to help you reconnect with yourself, your partner, and your sense of joy—emotionally, relationally, and sexually.
Ready to take the next step? Let’s figure this out together.
Training and Credentials
Over the years, I’ve had the honor of working with individuals and couples from over 25 countries, thanks to my time living internationally in Hong Kong. My journey as a therapist has been shaped by some of the world’s most influential thinkers and practitioners in marriage, couples therapy, and sex therapy, including Esther Perel, John Gottman, Harville Hendrix, David Schnarch, Terry Real, and Ellyn Bader. I’m also proud to hold certification as a Sex Therapist through AASECT (American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists), alongside memberships in leading organizations like:
- The Menopause Society
- American Psychological Association
- American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists
- International Society for the Study of Women’s Sexual Health
- International Society for Sexual Medicine
My therapeutic style is compassionate, collaborative, and down to earth. Whether you’re seeking brief, solution-focused sessions or deeper, long-term work, I draw on extensive training to tailor therapy to your unique needs. I integrate approaches such as:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
- Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT)
- Solution-Focused Therapy
- Mindfulness and body-based psychotherapy
- Internal Family Systems (IFS)
- Psychodynamic Psychotherapy
- Marriage counseling and couples therapy
- Sex therapy
My job? It’s not to fix you (because you’re not broken!)—it’s to walk alongside you as we untangle the stress, the fear, and the self-doubt. Whether it’s anxiety that won’t quit, relationships that leave you feeling drained or stressed, sexual challenges, or just a sense that you’ve lost *you* somewhere along the way, we’ll work together to make things feel lighter, clearer, and more manageable.
What matters most is tailoring our work to fit *you* and your unique journey.
Dr. Zeising’s Sensitive and Optimistic Therapeutic Style
As a cancer survivor, I know firsthand how life’s challenges can shake your foundation. Facing uncertainty, adapting to changes, and navigating what comes next can feel overwhelming and lonely. My own experience has deepened my empathy and understanding of what it means to persevere—and has strengthened my commitment to helping others find their way forward.
When I’m not in the therapy chair, you can find me spending time hiking, exploring nature or planning my next trip with my partner. I believe in showing up as my authentic self so that you feel safe to do the same.
You deserve to feel fulfilled, confident, and deeply connected to the people and parts of life that matter most to you. If you’re ready to take the next step, I’m here to walk that path with you.

"My goal is to empower adults to live a more rich and fulfilling life. I am collaborative and interactive, helping individuals resolve self-limiting beliefs that lead to depression, despair and a sense of powerlessness and meaninglessness in life. I help individuals deepen their sense of self-acceptance by understanding and transforming the roots of depression, anxiety, shame, guilt, and anger. I work with couples to transform self-protective strategies that undermine the relationship and help them to resolve old fears and bitterness, rebuild trust, and risk vulnerability to create a deeper sense of intimacy. I help people see the possibility of what life can offer when self-exploration, healing and growth occur." -KRISTIN ZEISING, PSY.D
