I'm a compassionate counselor specializing in trauma-focused therapy, ensuring that you receive the space you need to heal and integrate at your own pace. Using somatic and mindfulness techniques, as well as EMDR, I address the mind-body connection. In our collaborative work, we prioritize your experiences and perspectives, creating a safe space for exploration while respecting your autonomy. With a focus on the person first, I provide support for your healing and moving forward. Your needs are my priority, and I offer empathetic and inclusive care for your overall well-being.

I work with individuals, teens, couples, and families, providing comprehensive therapy for support and healing. Take the commendable step of finding the right therapist and schedule a free consultation call here: calendly.com/matthewcoletherapy

Note: I am a LGBTQ+ affirming therapist committed to providing a safe and inclusive space for all individuals.
