Matthew Cramer treats people struggling with: addictive use of substances or behaviors, anxiety, depression, relationship stress, job stress and the lasting impact of trauma. If you're considering therapy but aren't sure, then you've come to the right place. Most people who see Matthew have little to no experience with therapists or therapy. Many are uncomfortable asking for help, believing it is a sign of "weakness." Others come from families where "staying strong," and keeping "personal business" in the family was the norm. Whatever the story, they are able to open up to him.

With over 20 years of experience I have worked with a range of issues and populations. My main approach to therapy is cognitive behavioral theory (CBT) in order to process thoughts, feelings, and beliefs that contribute to distorted thinking and behavior, therefore affecting emotional well-being. The goal is to challenge and reframe so that the client achieves their personal goals, to cope with life transitions and obstacles. I also utilize Attachment Theory, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy. I've assisted clients with depression, anxiety, grief/loss, trauma, life transitions, and various others.

I find that it can be challenging, trying to figure out where you are presently and where you are trying to go. While navigating current life experiences, the challenges can cause frustration, with a need to seek freedom, sometimes choosing the unhealthy ways to cope. Sometimes we need a space and a support person that can help us navigate through these challenges and find healthy ways to cope while unpacking the known and unknown trauma that exists. Being able to have a safe space and a support, not only empowers us, but holds us accountable to those things that we set out to do and reminding us that we are not alone.

I specialize in working with individuals with eating disorders and addictions. I believe entering into a therapeutic relationship requires courage and just enough hope and willingness to begin. You've been turning to a substance: whether it's alcohol, drugs, compulsive eating, starving, bulimia, sex etc. A part of you wants to stop but you realize that maybe you're not in control, you've lost the power of choice. Profound shame accompanies these illnesses and shame interferes with asking for help. Addictions/eating disorders robs a person of all they value in being alive asking for help is vital, we cannot recover alone.
