Aloha! My name is George Mataele and I enjoy connecting with individuals, families, marriages, couples and adolescents who struggle with everyday life functions. The client/s may have a deeply traumatic past and may struggle with Anxiety, Depression, Suicide, Bipolar DO etc. I love to work with clients who desire to improve, manage and control their mental health well being.

No matter if you are dealing with depression, anxiety, life-transitions, self-confidence issues, or simply needing a little more support in your life my role is to work with you to achieve greater satisfaction in life. As people we all have our own stories, backgrounds, and present situations and because of that I believe that everyone deserves an individualized approach that best fits you. My job as your therapist is to provide a safe, non-judgmental, and authentic place for you to explore your goals, overcome your barriers, and work through situations together.

Hello! I am a licensed professional counselor specialized in general mental health care. I have experience working with clients who have substance use disorders, mental health disorders, trauma, and criminogenic needs. I believe that therapy is both an art and a science, and I use a multi-factor approach based on each client’s individual needs. I am passionate about clients feeling they are empowered to make their own choices and validating their experiences. In the therapeutic relationship, I see you as the expert of your life. I am merely a guide and observer to help you reach your goals.

In my clinical practice I have served individuals across the life span and supported with life transitions, relationship conflict/challenges, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and traumatic experiences. I have substantial experience in leadership and effective group dynamics amongst peers.

Life can feel heavy sometimes, you seem to be plodding along just trying to get through it, or worse, waking up filled with dread at what the day ahead will bring. You struggle to find anything to get excited about or look forward to. It could be that something intangible has shifted and you have lost your sense of hope, optimism, and enthusiasm. Or perhaps a transitional event has occurred; you left a job, changed careers, retired, divorced, your kids grew up and moved away, you experienced the loss of someone close to you, received a life altering medical diagnosis, or a caregiving role has consumed your life.

The path through life can be difficult to walk alone. Sometimes life can feel overwhelming and make you feel stuck. In turn, it becomes challenging to feel like yourself and enjoy everyday activities. I believe that getting in touch with your authentic self will help you face those fears that normally hold you back.

I enjoy working with couples and individuals in all walks of life. I work with couples to understand feeling/expressing love, improving communication and working on relationship skills. This can be for new relationships or long marriages with challenges. I am also a Licensed Addiction Counselor and work with individuals struggling with all forms of addiction; including alcohol, substances, pornography, sex, gambling, cigarettes, and electronics.

Greetings! The main focus of my work is working with individuals and families to help support and navigate through many areas of life. My client’s typical age range is from teenaged years up to young adut though I’ve worked with clients of all ages including clients as young as 5 up until late adulthood. Issues that could be addressed include depression, indecision, anxiety, fear of change, need of direction, and how to maintain/increase happiness. While there is no one specific goal, goals such as finding confidence in-self, self-regulation, learning healthy expression, and happiness are common.

As a practicing psychotherapist since 1992, I have the honor of assisting clients with the emotional issues that create obstacles and/or roadblocks in all areas of their lives. My compassionate and caring approach is solution-focused and action-oriented, and I believe all clients have the capacity for change within themselves. Clients willing to engage in the emotion and thought based therapeutic process of correcting their actions toward more positive behavior changes achieve the desired outcome of eliminating those life obstacles and roadblocks, resulting in the ultimate therapy goal - better and greater happiness!

My clients are individuals who have encountered barriers to health and happiness in the form of co-dependency, mild to moderate mental health and other life issues (e.g., anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, substance abuse, relationship problems, etc.).

Most people want to create a better life for themselves, yet many adults hit roadblocks along the way in their mental health such as grief, depression, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, shame, relational strife, codependency, post-traumatic stress reactions, addictions, compulsions, abuse, difficulty concentrating, difficulty socializing and connecting with others, executive dysfunction, mania, hallucinations, cultural conflict, chronic pain, etc.

It takes courage to seek support, so I take that to heart when working with people of diverse histories and needs. Perhaps you have had depression, trauma, anxiety, loss, life transitions, or other stress that you are ready to heal. I work most effectively with clients willing to look into themselves and their lives with both depth and compassion. If you are seeking an approach that is holistic, integrative, trauma-informed, and empowering, we may be a good fit for counseling. My intention is to help you find your own inner capacities to heal, grow, transform, evolve, learn, and become.

I understand how life can throw terrain, leaving us with dust and dirt to clean up. Life can be complicated by anxiety, depression, grief & stress. You’re busy with work, family and figuring out how to navigate your day to day life during these challenging times. You're tired & are over feeling this way. I offer over 10 years experience working working with individuals in mental health & medical settings (psychiatric, hospital and primary care). I love working with individuals who want to gain more self awareness, tools & knowledge of themselves when life challenges us to grow.
