MATT'S THERAPY APPROACH

​

I describe my approach to psychotherapy as eclectic. There is no “one-size fits all approach,” so my goal is to create a therapeutic experience that is tailored to your unique needs as an individual. 

 

The strongest predictor of positive outcomes in therapy is the therapeutic relationship – the relationship between the client and therapist. To that end, it is first and foremost important for me to build strong and healthy relationships with my clients. 

 

From there, I utilize skills and tools from Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, EMDR, Mindfulness, Emotionally-Focused Couples' Therapy, and Internal Family Systems. 

​

​

I see individuals (ages 13+) and couples (ages 18+) for psychotherapy in office, or over a secure online video platform. 

​

My areas of focus include:

 

-depression                                            

-anxiety    

-trauma/PTSD

-issues related to ADHD

-recovery from break-ups 

-issues related to love, sex, and relationships 

-stress management 

-insomnia

-self-harm

-difficulties regulating emotions

-borderline personality disorder

-exploration of gender and sexual identity

-issues related to being LGBTQ
