About Keith
Dr. Keith Breiman is an LCSW with 42 years of clinical experience based in New Jersey. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, career questions, and coaching needs. He also focuses on feelings of guilt, shame, and isolation. Dr. Breiman uses talk-based methods to help clients notice patterns and try new ways of responding.
He draws on several approaches in his work rather than a single method. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is one tool he uses to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and to practice alternative behaviors. He also uses client-centered skills to listen and reflect what clients are noticing about themselves.
Mindfulness techniques are included when helpful to slow down reactivity and increase moment-to-moment awareness. He has experience with psychodynamic ideas as well, using them to look at repeating relationship patterns and underlying feelings. Sessions are practical and focused on small, testable changes rather than theory alone.
Dr. Breiman’s experience comes from decades in private practice and organizational settings. He aims to work with each person as a collaborator, clarifying concerns and setting concrete goals. Clients leave sessions with short, doable steps to try between meetings.
If you are weighing options, expect a straightforward, structured approach that moves from understanding to specific strategies. Confirm current session formats before booking so you know how you will meet for the first appointment.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Dr. Breiman commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify the thoughts and habits that keep problems going, then practice new responses. CBT focuses on concrete exercises and short behavioral experiments that fit well into remote sessions. He also uses client-centered methods to reflect what a person is noticing and to keep the pace guided by the client’s concerns.Mindfulness work is used to slow reactivity and build attention to present-moment experience; in an online session this often means guided breathing or brief awareness practices and review of what came up. Choosing an approach is collaborative - he will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps most for stress, anxiety, relationships, or career concerns.
