About Kevin
Kevin Wurtz is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with more than 22 years of practice in California. He helps people who are struggling with stress and anxiety, addiction concerns, relationship and family problems, and issues that affect self-esteem. He aims to make the first step feel manageable and supportive rather than overwhelming.
Kevin uses straightforward conversation to learn what matters most to each person. He adapts the pace and focus of sessions to fit individual goals.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and goal-oriented, with room to process emotion and plan next steps. He draws on methods that help people change unhelpful thoughts, build coping skills, and set realistic goals. That might mean noticing patterns that feed anxiety, practicing new ways to approach conflict, or strengthening motivation to reduce substance use.
The work is collaborative and focused on what the person wants to change. Kevin has supported clients around grief, trauma and abuse, parenting stresses, intimacy concerns, and life transitions. He also addresses career and purpose questions, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related struggles, and issues like codependency or forgiveness.
He brings steady, respectful attention to those topics. People who want clear tools and an empathetic listener often find his style useful. He will tailor conversations and plans to each person's needs and preferences.
The aim is to help people move forward with practical skills and renewed clarity.
How his approaches translate to online care
Kevin commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in his online practice. CBT focuses on identifying and changing thought and behavior patterns that keep problems like anxiety and depression going, and it often includes practical exercises to try between sessions. Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice their thoughts and feelings without judgement, which can reduce stress and improve emotional regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help determine which methods fit the client's goals, needs, and preferences and will adjust the plan as progress is made. That collaboration helps keep sessions focused and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video sessions let people work face-to-face when helpful, phone sessions can be used with lower bandwidth or for a quick check-in, and chat or messaging can suit brief updates or ongoing support between longer meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or daily routines while maintaining a steady course of care.
