About me
My name is Keith Breiman and I've provided individual, family, and couples counseling for over three decades in private practice and in a variety of organizational settings. My earliest training was in Gestalt Therapy which both educated and heightened my cognitive, emotional, and affective sensitivity enabling me to be in the present moment with you. Since those early days, I've had extensive training and experience with other orientations (psychodynamic, cognitive behavior ..) and have incorporated how I practice from all of them. I've learned that each therapeutic relationship brings a client(s) with a unique blend of strengths, problematic habits, blind spots, and individually-specific needs that are not being addressed successfully. My experience is that when treatment works, these areas are gradually and sensitively uncovered, and in that process, we will first work together as a team to provide you with a better understanding of your challenges and, then, collectively, create appropriate strategies to address them.
I'm sure I don't have to outline the challenges teens and young adults present to their parent(s) and families. The majority of my over 30 years of clinical experience has been with this age group, in private practice, residential settings, outpatient clinics, and court-referred settings.

Dr breiman is great! Always insightful and patient and neutral
Dr. Breiman is an experienced professional who listens to his patients’ needs and concerns. He is very insightful and assists with guiding you through any problem that you present to him. I’ve had other therapists before on teencounseling.com however, I’ve found the most success with Dr. Breiman. I highly recommend to couple needing assistance.
Dr. Breiman is a kind therapist who is extremely helpful with his suggestions and insights.
Dr. Breiman is everything you want and need in a marriage/family counselor. He is experienced, kind and also "no nonsense". He helps us approach life together with real tools, affection and even some laughter.
I have been working with Dr. Breiman for about a year and have developed tools and insight to live a more empowered life. He is experienced and skillfulI. I would recommend him, and this platform, to all my friends.
Many thanks! I carry on.
Dr. Breiman is hands down the best therapist I've ever had. I was in a very dark place, mentally, physically, and financially. I was struggling with my occupation, my relationship with my girlfriend, and fighting unnecessary battles with friends and family members. Keith has coached me through the toughest times to keep me going, and make life suck a little less with each session. Now I've completely changed for the better, and it's all thanks to him motivating me. I've changed careers to something that is not only something I found I love doing, but is paying more. On top of that, my bond with my friends and family have never been stronger. And as for my girlfriend and I, she is now my fiance, and I couldn't be happier! Thank you so much Keith Breiman! I will never forget you!
Give him an award!! Refreshing POV and challenges me to really think through situations. Grateful for him and how he’s made me more aware of habits in my life !
I really enjoyed my time with Dr. Breiman. He helped me navigate some difficult scenarios with my spouse, my family, motherhood and with my business. I spent a bit over a year working with him and noticed a vast improvement in my communication skills and my ability to see situations under a different light. I highly recommend working with him.
Dr. Breiman appears to be helpful for my son. My son was hesitant it starting sessions with a counselor, but with Dr. Breiman, he looks forward to speaking with him.
Dr Breiman has been extremely professional and helpful in clarifying what some of the topics are that we want to discuss with him. He asks insightful, but not invasive questions. The "homework" he assigned us was very useful in voicing our hopes and concerns and get a conversation going. Having evening times available is a bonus!
The thing I appreciate most about Dr. Breiman is how succinct he is. He is very clear and deliberate with his advice and I have incorporated his council into my daily life for the better.
