Hi, I’m Matt, your friendly neighborhood therapist, author and advocate, usually spotted with a slight smile and funky head nod that runs a tightrope to any beat between Kendrick Lamar and Isaac Hayes. I place compassion at the core of my work. It is my belief that there are no wrong feelings, and my continual hope is to work with you to build a safe space where we can sit in the discovery of your authentic self, before we walk alongside each other toward your goals.
Have you been feeling off balance lately? It's ok to feel that way, and ok to want to find balance again. With an intentionally diversified background, I have experience in various general practices such as anxiety, depression, life transitions, and adjustments. But I also specialize in families/couples, identity development, masculinity, and trauma/PTSD.
Additionally, I find social justice to be an inescapably interwoven piece of our work as therapists. Because of this, I practice acknowledging the presence and impact of various systems in your life, while mindfully listening to what you believe can be helpful in your journey towards liberation.
