Dr. Mitch Keil, Clinical Psychologist
At Keil Psych Group you can expect to have a real session with a real person. We anchor our work in honesty, genuineness, and compassion. As a whole, therapy helps people to develop a deeper understanding of themselves and their relationships, become free of old patterns, or simply find ways to process pain or memories that have kept them feeling stuck.

It is a healing process that allows people to not only start feeling better but gain insight, awareness, and ultimately begin trusting their intuition and experience. We help people to get in touch with themselves on deeper levels. Relationships are as capable of hurt and pain as they are for healing. Dr. Keil has assembled an incredible team of psychologists here in Newport Beach.

We are active, involved therapists whose life's work is aimed at providing insight, growth, and healing for those that enter our practice. We pride ourselves in providing the highest quality mental health care to the people in this community. We have a heart and passion for this work and care deeply for the people that come to see us.
Services
We have an incredible team here.
In fact, we joined together as a team because of our shared love for psychotherapy and the art of providing quality psychotherapy.
We are not the head-nodding, passive, always-in-agreement type.
You can expect to be deeply understood, engaged, and cared for but you will also be challenged in many ways.
We will be real, involved, depth-oriented, and the antithesis of the classic distant armchair professional.
We don't rely on a blanketed approach and create a unique therapy to each person we meet.
You did it.
This is a big deal.
So many people toggle back and forth with the idea of finding a psychologist and reaching out for help.
They search, delete the search tab, search again, call but hang up - over and over, sometimes for years.
It's an act of vulnerability to ask for professional help and society's stigma doesn't make it any easier.
Contrary to the old American mythology of "pride in strength", you are not weak in asking for help - its actually an act of courage.
I mean, what is "strength" really?
Our approach is primarily psychodynamic.
In other words, we believe that we are often mysteries to ourselves and a psychologist is skilled at uncovering deeper, root issues often suppressed from our conscious thought.
People often have thoughts, feelings, and inner conflicts they may not be aware of but which can produce the experience of conscious anxiety.
Once those issues are brought to light, processed, and worked through people begin to feel immensely better.
Its a faulty belief that what we choose to forget, "get over" or move on from can no longer affect us.
Depression is one of the most challenging, yet one of the most common psychiatric disorders.
Different from popular belief, it is not prolonged sadness.
Sadness is a normal and expected part of being alive and human, depression is not.
Depression is actually not an emotion, it is a state of mind in which emotions are being suppressed.
To "depress" something literally means to push something down.
Underneath the surface of "depression" there is often internalized anger, helplessness, regret, disappointment, self-criticism, unworthiness, meaninglessness, fear, or fatigue from prolonged anxiety underneath a depressed state.
Those who have experienced trauma often report an aching sense that their real self and true capabilities are buried somewhere below the surface and yearn for the day when that person can come forth.
For years, some find safety in the idea that others had it worse, but the reality is, what you experienced is real and its yours.
The resiliency, insight, and evolution I have seen people inhabit in working through trauma or challenging childhoods speaks to the incredible laden strengths and unique sensitivities that survivors of these circumstances often possess.
