About My Clients

Hi, I’m Matt, and I’m glad you're here. Everything you’ve overcome to get to this moment has prepared you for the journey ahead. I'm here to provide you with a safe, supportive space where you can express yourself openly and honestly. Being fully present with your feelings allows you to reconnect to your authentic self and opens the door for true joy in your life. You can learn to love yourself unconditionally, cultivate self-compassion, and feel at peace. Our work together will show you how.

My Background and Approach

Hi, I’m Matt. I'm a licensed clinical psychotherapist. Being a therapist is more than a job for me. It's a calling. As a young adult, my own challenges led to profound growth through the healing and transformative power of therapy. I have the utmost respect and empathy for individuals facing mental health hurdles, and I'm grateful to now support others on their journey to creating a better life. My private practice, McDavid Creative Therapy, offers a consciously created and decidedly different therapeutic approach. Traditional therapy is about solving the problem and changing behaviors—it’s a “what’s wrong with me?” approach. In my practice, the combination of trauma-informed care with a strength-based lens addresses the true impact of past experiences on current struggles—a “what happened to me?” approach. Our work together moves beyond alleviating painful symptoms to cultivate a profound sense of peace, self-acceptance, emotional resilience, and self-love.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe the journey is less about changing yourself and more about letting go of what isn’t true to who you are. It's about unlearning how you’ve been conditioned to see yourself and recognizing that you’ve been good enough all along. Your story doesn’t have to be ghostwritten by what happened to you. You can become the conscious author of your own life. Moments of breakdown are opportunities for breakthroughs. Like rays of light shining through the cracks of a vessel, our experiences of adversity can lead to profound growth and resilience. Together, we can embrace the journey of healing and transformation, finding strength and beauty in the places where we once felt broken.
