Matthew uses a nonjudgmental approach to build rapport and establish trust in the therapeutic relationship. He aims to integrate different modalities into his practice, recognizing that treatment is unique to the individual. He’s invested in the full journey, working collaboratively with patients to build a roadmap to achieving your goals. He is also certified in Accelerated Resolution Therapy, a creative intervention used to help process anxious feelings and worries that result from traumatic experiences and everyday stressors.
Matthew has always been drawn to psychology, learning how the mind works and heals, and how we all cope with life in different ways. Studying mental health inspired him to channel those feelings into helping others.
In his free time, Matthew enjoys to relax and unwind. He’s an avid movie-watcher and loves reading a book—and falling asleep—with his cat on a rainy day. You can usually find him running along the road, looking to sign up for his next race.
