No single approach fits all clients; I tailor my approach to each client, making it relevant to the specific problem they are facing. The best way to understand your current issues is to examine how your past influences who you are today. I also emphasize understanding your emotions and past patterns to ensure a better understanding of yourself. I strive to provide a gentle and warm experience, ensuring you are comfortable within the therapy setting and process these hard feelings through a genuine relationship. I also ensure that you understand the process of our work together so you can feel informed and empowered.

Hi, I’m Matthew Mulock, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a passion for helping people heal, grow, and move toward a life that feels more grounded, meaningful, and fulfilling. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of South Florida and my master’s degree in Social Work, with a concentration in Advanced Clinical Practice, from Saint Leo University. I am originally from Alaska, but Florida has been my home for the past 20 years. I work with adolescents and adults who are navigating a wide range of emotional and mental health challenges, including trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and everyday stressors. My goal is to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel safe to be yourself, explore what you are going through, and begin building the tools you need to move forward with confidence.

I've spent the last 14 years walking alongside people through some of the tender, complicated seasons of life, like navigating depression and anxiety, managing overwhelming stress, working through relationship struggles, or figuring out career transitions. I care deeply about the people I work with, and I bring warmth, honesty, and a genuine curiosity about who you are to every session. When I'm not in the therapy room, you'll usually find me outside gardening or getting my steps in around the neighborhood.
