About William
William Keeler is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Oregon with 10 years of clinical experience. He works with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, LGBT concerns, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, parenting, anger, bipolar disorder, and ADHD.
He trained with a Master of Social Work and spent several years in community mental health. That work included supporting adults, children, and teenagers in everyday settings. He uses practical, skills-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, solution-focused strategies, and elements of dialectical behavior therapy.
His approach begins with listening so clients can describe what feels most urgent. He helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits and then tries different ways of responding. He offers direct guidance when clients want concrete steps to try between sessions.
Sessions focus on clear goals. Topics might include managing worry, improving sleep, handling big life changes, or finding better ways to respond to anger and mood swings. He also addresses identity and gender-related concerns and practical parenting stresses.
Outside of work he spends much of his free time with his young children and enjoys reading, video games, and board games. He asks clients to pick a first session using the online matching process and then schedule a time to begin.
How his approaches are used online
William uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and test unhelpful thoughts and habits. CBT focuses on concrete exercises and behavioral changes that address anxiety, mood, sleep, and day-to-day functioning. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to clarify values and build small actions that match those values when life feels overwhelming. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers skills for regulating strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness in stressful moments.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. He collaborates with each person to see which methods fit their goals and preferences, and adjusts strategies over time based on what helps most. Clients and therapist decide together whether to focus on thought records, values-based actions, or specific emotion regulation skills.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, allow brief check-ins when needed, and remove the need to be on camera for every meeting if that helps. These practical benefits help people try consistent practice and use strategies between sessions.
