About Gregory
Gregory Keeler is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with 27 years of professional experience. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and issues connected to LGBT and gender identity. He also supports those facing relationship strain, career pressures, grief, trauma, addiction concerns, and questions around intimacy and self-esteem.
He approaches sessions as a collaboration. He treats the client as the expert on their own life and focuses on practical steps they can try between meetings. He listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and offers ways to change those patterns in everyday situations.
Clients can expect straightforward conversation about what’s not working and what could help. Gregory emphasizes building on strengths and small, achievable changes rather than sweeping promises. He uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide interventions and measure progress over time.
He has worked across a range of settings over nearly three decades, helping people navigate major life changes and long-standing struggles. That background informs a flexible approach to pacing and goals, whether the concern is an acute stressor or a chronic pattern. He also has experience supporting people with gender dysphoria and those living with HIV or AIDS.
Gregory offers services in English and practices in California. His work is oriented toward adults seeking clearer ways to manage feelings, respond differently in relationships, and rebuild confidence after setbacks.

Evidence-based techniques and online sessions
Gregory uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. He combines approaches that help people recognize unhelpful thinking and change reactive behavior, and techniques that focus on practical skills for managing strong emotions. These methods suit issues such as anger, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and coping with life changes.One common technique focuses on identifying triggers and experimenting with small behavior changes. This helps reduce automatic reactions and gives people more choices in tense moments. Another approach concentrates on tracking thoughts and testing whether they match reality, which can lower distress and reduce impulsive responses. Both are practical and aim for measurable steps clients can try between meetings.
Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work. Gregory will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their goals, pace, and preferences. He checks in regularly and adjusts strategies based on what is or isn’t working.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, or allow for shorter check-ins during a workday. Licensed professionals can use different formats to match a client's needs, and Gregory will discuss practical arrangements when you schedule your first appointment.
