About Kevin
Dr. Kevin Keating is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (FL LMHC) with 15 years of clinical experience. He sees adults dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strains, grief, self-esteem problems, and the practical pressures of parenting and career life. Blended family issues are listed among his focus areas, including concerns about merging households and stepfamily roles.
He draws on a mix of approaches rather than a single method. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. He listens without judgment and works with people to identify small, manageable steps they can try between meetings.
Dr. Keating uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns, test new behaviors, and reduce avoidance. He also uses client-centered and narrative ideas to understand personal meaning and values. These methods are practical and geared toward daily life changes, not abstract theory.
Appointments often focus on specific problems such as communication breakdowns, co-parenting stress, loyalty conflicts, or intimacy concerns. He can help people sort priorities, set boundaries, and practice different ways of responding when old habits get in the way.
People can expect straightforward talk about what is working and what needs to change. The pace is collaborative and adjusts to the person’s needs. If someone wants to begin, the next steps are described in his online intake and scheduling instructions.
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that align with values. It can help with anxiety, avoidance, and the stress of changing family roles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and provides practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and the person’s own goals, helping people feel heard while they decide what matters next.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to try methods that fit their goals and preferences. That might mean mixing ACT exercises with CBT skill practice and client-centered conversation until a useful balance is found.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session options before booking. Generally, online work can make it easier to fit sessions around busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people use audio-only or video formats depending on what works best for them and their day-to-day demands. Licensed professionals can help adapt techniques so they are practical for everyday life.
