Counseling Approach

I balance compassionate listening with direct questions and sharing my insights. I take time to really know you and provide personalized care. I patiently walk you through the process of healing deep hurts. I assign homework as appropriate to facilitate growth and healing. I have experienced with my clients that healing often happens when we dig into the root causes of your concerns and bring attention to what hurts while focusing on God.

How Others View Matt

The following comments contain others' perspectives on Matt's role as a counselor. Because each person's struggles are unique, each person will respond to counseling differently. In addition to a counselor's skills, many other factors (such as a client's availability, investment, motivation, attitude, and ability to face difficult emotions) can determine the results of counseling. While Matt practices with evidence-based methods, the outcomes of counseling cannot be determined ahead of time. He might interact with you in completely different ways (than those depicted below) to help you reach your goals.
