My Background and Approach
Matt is an LPC, with a Bachelor’s degree in psychology and an M.Ed. in counselor education from Texas Tech University, where he had the opportunity to guest teach. Matt utilizes cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to decrease negative thoughts and increase target behaviors. He uses dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) informed approach to teach his clients how to regulate emotion, improve interpersonal skills, and increase resilience. Matt often uses DBT to focus on increasing mindfulness utilizing meditation and breathing exercises. However, he's a practical counselor, open to utilizing other modes of therapy to best suit his clients’ needs. Matt is open to working with teens, adults, and couples who experience anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, other mental health symptoms, or who are in periods of transition. He also accepts most major EAPs.
