About me

I am a family and marriage therapist licensed in California with over 25 years of experience as a caring witness working with youth, adults, couples, and families to help them increase their ability to balance personal motivations with social and relationship challenges. As a passionate and curious learner, I embrace a "each one teach one" and "it takes a village" counseling style.

I have had the honor and blessing of a few caring witnesses in my life. I pledge my life's work to pass on the attentive sense of care that was instilled in me. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life. If you are ready to take that step toward change, I am ready to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you.

My therapist has a gift for truly listening. When he couldn’t immediately see where I needed support, he guided me to uncover it within myself and helped me focus on my own personal growth—a blessing in every sense. Because I live in the spiritual, universal space, he didn’t just show up as a therapist; he adapted his language and approach to align with the way I think and experience the world. That kind of flexibility isn’t easy to find, and it’s rare to meet someone who can bridge the “regular world” and the spiritual realm with such understanding and respect.

I’ve had just a few sessions with Keith and so far he’s been great! Highly recommend.

Uses his professional experience to help find contributing causes not just what I think the cause is. Allows me to evaluate the whole me in finding my way to resolution.
