Welcome, I’m Matthew, and I'm here to guide you on a transformative journey towards a more authentic, fulfilling, and purposeful life. It's incredibly important to me that everyone feels welcomed and valued, regardless of their orientation, race, background, or identity. I specialize in supporting individuals who are navigating neurodiversity, loving yourself after the complexities of trauma, and anyone who wants to embrace the potential of a major life transition. If you’ve done foundational work already, and now want to go deeper, we might be a good fit. If your spirit is seeking a spiritual answer, then keep reading.
When it comes to therapeutic style, I am open-minded, understanding, empathetic, and honest. I use humor and straightforward directives when needed. I draw from a variety of therapeutic modalities, such as EMDR, Transpersonal (spiritual), Somatic Healing & Mindfulness, Jungian Archetypes, and Internal Family Systems.
I also like to be transparent about how I am not the right fit for everyone. If you’re looking to find CBT or DBT based skills, I may not be ideal for your goals. If you’re still reading, then you’ve come this far. Take the next step. Connect with me, let’s begin.
