About Keith
Keith McCann is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 25 years of clinical experience in California. He helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. He speaks plainly and works in a respectful, strengths-focused way.
He encourages parents and adults who are nervous about starting therapy to take the next step. He centers sessions on each person's story and strengths. He listens first, then helps clients set clear goals.
How Keith works
Practical tools and straightforward talk are used to manage panic, reduce worry, and handle anger. Work may include building confidence, improving communication, and reducing the impact of past trauma. Keith draws on methods that are evidence-based and focused on real-world change.
He explains techniques in simple terms and adapts them to fit daily life. Sessions are collaborative - the client’s priorities guide the pace and focus. Over his career he has supported many people through mood disorders, panic attacks, social anxiety, and post-traumatic stress.
He also helps with issues like impulsivity, forgiveness, and finding life purpose. The goal is clearer thinking, steadier mood, and stronger self-regard. Sessions can be scheduled to fit different rhythms of life.
He invites people to try a first session and see how the approach feels. Taking that initial step is framed as part of a practical plan toward feeling better.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care
Keith uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful patterns and building skills. One common approach helps people notice and shift thought patterns that feed anxiety and depression, teaching practical strategies to interrupt worry and reduce panic symptoms. Another approach emphasizes learning skills to manage strong emotions and anger, including step-by-step ways to calm down and respond differently in tense moments.Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist listens to your goals and preferences, then recommends methods that fit your situation. Sessions are adjusted over time so techniques match what’s working and what needs more focus.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and exercises that benefit from seeing each other. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text let people send short updates or have quick check-ins between longer sessions. These options help fit therapy into busy days and different routines.
