About me

As a licensed therapist in Florida, Vermont and Maine, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on understanding each person's unique journey, with particular expertise in addressing depression, anxiety, stress, and life transitions. I'm deeply committed to helping clients develop self-love, improve communication, and overcome challenges related to isolation, social anxiety, and personal growth.

My therapeutic practice focuses on creating a compassionate, non-judgmental space where individuals can explore their experiences and develop meaningful strategies for healing. Whether you're struggling with workplace stress, relationship dynamics, or personal identity questions, I offer supportive guidance tailored to your specific needs.

I draw from evidence-based practices to help clients build resilience, enhance self-understanding, and create positive life changes. My work spans a wide range of concerns, including mood disorders, attachment issues, life purpose exploration, and personal empowerment. I'm dedicated to walking alongside you as you navigate your path toward emotional well-being and personal growth.

Matthew is hands down the best therapist I have worked with. He gives insight but also let’s me work things out within myself during our sessions. He always has a response that is thought out and is detailed to my situation. Matthew is great
