They’ve been through some shit...maybe trauma, maybe just life kicking them in the teeth on repeat. They’re tired of holding it together, tired of therapists who just nod and ask about feelings while everything still feels like it’s on fire. They want to feel something other than numb, angry, or anxious. They want clarity, peace, sleep, and a fucking break. Not forever therapy. Not fluff. Just someone real who can help them untangle the mess without making them feel like a diagnosis with legs.
This isn’t “tell me how that makes you feel” therapy. I specialize in focused, intensive work that cuts through the noise. EMDR, somatic therapy, CBT...done my way, which means we’re getting into it. Not surface-level. Not forever. Just the stuff that actually changes you. Think of it like ripping the band-aid off your nervous system…carefully.
I’m not everyone’s flavor...and that’s the point. I’m not here to play therapist dress-up or nod for an hour. If you want someone real, who swears a little, cuts through the noise, and actually gives a shit, reach out. Worst case? You’ll leave with more than a coloring sheet and deep breathing handout.

Groups
Weathered Men
Weathered Men is an outdoor men’s group for adult men who are stressed, burned out, disconnected, grieving, angry, numb, or tired of carrying everything alone. This is not traditional therapy. We meet outside through hiking, fishing, paddling, and direct conversation. The work is practical, and built for men who process better shoulder-to-shoulder than face-to-face. No therapy experience or outdoor expertise required. Led by Matt Thadeio, LMHC-A, founder of Cognitive Alchemy RI, Weathered Men blends trauma-informed therapy, EMDR, somatic work, nervous system regulation, and adventure-based intervention outside the walls.
