About kevin michael ross

Kevin Michael Ross, M.S., LMFT, is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in private practice in Los Angeles, California. With more than 30 years of direct client care, his clinical experience spans adolescent residential treatment, school mental health programs, community-based care, substance-use relapse prevention, and outpatient psychiatric treatment. For a decade, he worked extensively with displaced, injured, and transitional workers whose careers and working identities had been disrupted by physical, psychological, and vocational change.

Ross' clinical work is integrative and depth-oriented, drawing from cognitive, relational, attachment-informed, experiential, psychodynamic, and other evidence-based approaches to psychotherapy. His work has focused on helping people understand recurring patterns, adapt to significant life transitions, and make practical changes while attending to questions of identity, meaning, relationships, and personal development.

He is the developer of The T-BEK Cycle™ and author of The T-BEK Cycle™: A Clinician Manual and Workbook and The T-BEK Cycle™: A Workbook. His writing translates ideas developed through decades of clinical practice into accessible frameworks for understanding patterns and creating new possibilities for change. He has also authored When You Can’t Go Back - A Guide To Career Transition and Reinvention offering practical insight and grounded reflection to help those facing career or job disruption, burnout, and the need to move forward.

Ross holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Speech Communications from Greenville University and a Master of Science degree in Counseling from California State University, Los Angeles. He also completed doctoral studies in Clinical Psychology at Pacifica Graduate Institute and trained in wellness coaching through the Wellcoaches School of Coaching.

Many of his current clients are successful professionals in fields such as entertainment, fashion, finance, healthcare, and technology.
