Keil Psych Group
High Quality Mental Health Care and Psychotherapy
The therapy we offer is personal, involved, and active. We help you get to the heart of what’s really going on—and we don’t hold back. Whether you’re navigating painful emotions, stuck in old patterns, or carrying memories that feel too heavy to process alone, we’re here to help you find clarity, meaning, and relief. We don’t just treat symptoms here, we work with lives.
Psychotherapy is more than just feeling better—it’s about understanding yourself on a deeper level, making sense of your relationships, and learning to trust your own experience and intuition. Our goal is to help you move beyond what’s holding you back and toward the life you know you’re capable of living.
Dr. Keil has brought together an outstanding team of clinical psychologists in Newport Beach. We’re active, engaged therapists who take this work seriously—it’s our life’s calling. Our approach is grounded in insight, honesty, authenticity, and compassion (from the Greek, literally “to suffer with”). We’re here to walk with you through the hard stuff—and help you heal as quickly and deeply as possible.
We take pride in offering the highest quality mental health care to our community. We love what we do, and we care deeply about the people who come through our doors. Wherever you’re starting from, we’re ready to meet you with respect, curiosity, and genuine support.
Mental health isn’t simple, and we are not machines.
If only it were like fixing a busted radiator: a few turns of the wrench, a couple of sparks, and you’re back on the road. But people aren’t built that way. Be wary of anyone who claims to have the one simple answer or the perfect “Allen wrench” for what you’re going through.
By the time many people find their way here, they’ve tried everything—self-help books, diets, more work, less work, yoga, hot yoga… all with the best intentions. And still, something hasn’t changed. You’re not alone in that. In fact, it’s often after several of these sincere attempts that people finally consider the idea of seeing a therapist—maybe even a “shrink.”
But this might be exactly the right place to land.
Finding the right therapist matters. Many people come to us after disappointing or disconnected first sessions elsewhere, hesitant but willing to try again. We understand that vulnerability—and we respect it.
Forget the fancy acronyms for a moment. At its core, therapy is two people coming together to search for truth, clarity, healing, and growth. You are a complex, layered human being with a rich emotional history—and you deserve a therapist who honors that. Someone who doesn’t just offer strategies, but offers presence. Someone who truly cares. That’s the spirit we carry into this work. Our team is exceptional, and we’re proud that most of our first sessions naturally evolve into meaningful, lasting therapies.
As psychodynamic clinicians, we work to help you understand yourself on the deepest level. Our early relationships taught us—both directly and indirectly—what emotions were safe to feel and which ones were not. We adapted, shaped our personalities around staying connected to the people we loved and depended on. In that dance, some parts of us grew, while others were left behind.
Therapy helps you reclaim those missing pieces. To feel more whole. To experience your emotional life fully and without shame. That’s the heart of the healing journey. And we don’t just believe in it—we’ve been there too.
Therapy isn’t just about having a good listener. It’s not another self-improvement project. It’s a real, human relationship—an honest collaboration between two people, committed to facing the truth so you can grow, heal, and move forward. It’s more than anything you’ll find in a book, a Google search, and yes, even Chat GPT. It’s a living, transformative process.
We know that making the first appointment can be daunting. It may even bring up anxiety. But in our experience, there is no more meaningful or worthwhile investment than good psychotherapy. Take some time to explore our site, get to know our psychologists, and learn more about the work we do.
You may be closer than you think to the change you’ve been looking for.
We are a small, specialty practice composed of dedicated, talented psychologists for whom this work is far more than just a job. We care deeply and actively engage with each person we see. Our team practices depth-oriented, holistic psychotherapy focused on addressing root issues. We intentionally keep our caseload limited so every individual who comes through our doors receives the kind of care and attention we offer to family.
Psychotherapy is our passion, craft, and life’s work. If you’re new to therapy or have questions about our services, please don’t hesitate to reach out. There’s no such thing as a bad question, and no shame in seeking support.
We look forward to getting to know you, understanding your unique challenges, and meeting you exactly where you are—right now, on this day. Our goal is to walk alongside you in your healing journey and help you navigate life’s difficult moments. Asking for help can feel vulnerable, and accepting it even more so. We are committed to making the first step as easy as possible and will respond promptly to your inquiry.
