About Keith

Keith Martin is a New York licensed clinical social worker with 27 years of practice. He works with individuals dealing with anger, addiction, career transitions, and major life changes. He focuses on practical steps people can use right away to feel steadier and more in control.

Keith keeps sessions straightforward and goal-focused. He listens first, then helps people identify what’s getting in the way. Together they map out small changes that build toward better coping and clearer communication.

Background and approach

His approach blends client-centered care with cognitive behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing. That means conversations focus on the person’s goals, thoughts and behaviors, and on boosting motivation to try new strategies. He also draws on solution-focused and trauma-aware methods when those fit the situation.

Keith has long experience helping people manage anger and move through addictive patterns. He also supports those feeling isolated or stuck in work life. He emphasizes practical tools for communication, forgiveness, and rebuilding routines after change.

Sessions are usually collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. Keith aims to create a calm, straightforward space where people can try different strategies and track what helps. He works in English and accepts international clients, scheduling with people across time zones when needed.

Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist names and does not check training records.

How his approaches work online and in sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and perspective. In practice this means the therapist listens closely and follows the client’s lead, helping them name what matters and choose next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect; it uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns and is useful for anger, anxiety, and behavior change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend a mix of methods to try. That collaboration helps shape a plan that feels doable and focused on measurable steps forward.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and styles. Video calls are good for longer, in-depth work and face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, short coaching moments, or people who prefer typed communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, travel, or busy days while keeping a steady path toward goals.
