Brian Kees

Brian Kees is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on Mindfulness Therapy alongside other practical approaches. He helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, and relationship struggles. Brian aims to make sessions straightforward and focused on real-life challenges.

He draws on mindfulness to help people notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept away. He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and DBT skills for strong emotions and impulsivity. Sessions emphasize simple strategies that can be used day to day.

Brian has eight years of experience and works with adults facing life transitions, isolation, and questions about purpose. He pays attention to communication patterns and workplace stress. He also supports people dealing with grief, trauma, and intimacy-related concerns.

In the room he keeps things collaborative. He listens for patterns, then suggests concrete steps like skill practice, behavioral experiments, and mindfulness exercises. He checks in on what works and adjusts the plan together.

People who choose him can expect direct conversation about problems and a focus on skills that help between sessions. The goal is clearer thinking, steadier mood, and more useful ways to handle difficult moments.

How Mindfulness, CBT, and DBT Translate Online

Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice bodily sensations, thoughts, and feelings without getting carried away by them. Online sessions can guide short mindfulness exercises and teach ways to bring awareness into daily routines.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying small experiments to change behavior. Used online, CBT often includes homework between sessions, like thought records or behavioral tasks to practice during the week.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. In remote work, the therapist may teach and role-play those skills and troubleshoot real-time challenges clients bring up.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Brian will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and daily life. He adjusts techniques based on what helps and what doesnt, so the plan evolves together.

Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow quick check-ins during transitions in the week. They also let therapists assign practical between-session work and review progress in regular meetings.
