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 firmly believe in collaborating with my clients and working together to set realistic goals that feel manageable and empowering. While I'm all about providing practical and helpful support, I also believe humor has a special place in the therapeutic process. It's a powerful tool that can bring lightness and healing.

Sometimes, I may be straightforward and honest so that you can heal. Please know therapy is not just a place to dump emotions and hurt. I want you to actually heal, and that only happens when you apply these insights to your life. t’s your journey, and much of the work is done between sessions. I am not in charge of healing you, you are in charge of that. 

I also like to be transparent about how I am not the right fit for everyone. So, if you don’t like hippie-dippie spiritual stuff, I may not be your person. If you’re looking to find CBT or DBT based skills, I also may not be ideal for your goals. That said, you can still connect with me to help find someone who can help.

To make sure I custom tailor my approach to your unique needs, I draw from a variety of therapeutic modalities, such as Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Transpersonal (spiritual), Somatic Healing & Mindfulness, Jungian Archetypes, and Internal Family Systems.  

If you’re still reading, then you’ve come this far.  Take the next step.  Connect with me, let’s begin.
