About Kevin
Kevin Wurtz is a California-based licensed marriage and family therapist with 22 years of practice. He helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, addiction-related concerns, and relationship problems. His approach is straightforward and respectful, aimed at practical change rather than jargon.
He frames therapy as a collaborative process and offers steady support while you work toward clearer goals. He uses short-term, goal-focused methods alongside strategies that build awareness. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is part of his work, helping people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Background and approach
Mindfulness-based techniques are used to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation. Motivational Interviewing helps when making difficult changes feels overwhelming. Solution-Focused Therapy guides conversations toward next steps and concrete progress.
Sessions are tailored to the person in front of him rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. Kevin adapts conversation style and homework to fit each person's life and rhythm. He pays attention to family dynamics, parenting concerns, intimacy issues, and career stress when they affect daily functioning.
People dealing with grief, trauma, ADHD, or compassion fatigue can expect clear suggestions and practical practice. He works in English and offers a mix of session formats to suit different needs. Getting started involves a short questionnaire and then scheduling a time that fits the client's routine.
Kevin aims to help people make steady, realistic changes that improve day-to-day life.

Approaches that translate well to online care
Kevin commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in remote sessions. CBT focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns that contribute to distress and then practicing specific exercises to change them; it is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and addictions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional awareness, which helps with stress, grief, and trauma symptoms.Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and suggest techniques to try. Together you will adjust methods over time based on what produces useful change and what feels manageable in your daily life.
Online therapy with Kevin is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video enables face-to-face conversation, phone can be a lower-bandwidth option, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflections or brief coaching between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or caregiving schedules while keeping momentum on your goals.
