Therapy is meant to be a place where anyone can feel safe and understood. With all of the major stressors that kids are facing in this current age, it can be a game-changer for a child to have a place where they feel accepted and supported. I became a therapist not to pathologize or diagnose children, but to become another safe adult in their support system who guides them to their goals and cheers them on from the sidelines. I specialize in helping children and teens ages 3–17 navigate through emotional challenges, stressful life transitions, and difficult developmental experiences through play therapy and a warm, supportive environment.

My name is Matt, I'm a Licensed Clinical Therapist. I've spent the better part of 30 years working with people who have found themselves facing real challenges in life: Whether that be difficult life situations or transitions, families under pressure, schools in crisis, or youth struggling to find themselves. What I've learned is that every person can find their own strength and resiliency, even when it doesn't feel that way. I work from a holistic view, not just what's going on with you as a person, but how you relate to the people and environment around you. Change is possible, I would be honored to help be a part of yours.

I served 30 years in the United States Army — including combat deployments — before becoming a licensed therapist. That wasn't a career pivot. It was a calling. I know what it feels like to carry things you can't explain to people who weren't there. I also know that those same people are often the ones you love most.I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor and Board Certified TeleMental Health Provider, serving individuals, couples, and groups across South Carolina — in person in Saint Matthews and online statewide. I specialize in trauma and PTSD, depression, and anxiety, with a particular focus on veterans, military families, and adults navigating the long aftermath of difficult childhoods.I'm trained in Childhood Emotional Neglect (CEN) — a pattern where emotional needs go unmet in childhood and quietly shape everything from relationships to self-worth to how you handle stress decades later. Many of my clients didn't grow up in crisis homes, but still find themselves struggling to connect, feel, or be fully present. That's often CEN. And it's treatable.I accept most major insurance plan. Sliding scale fees are available, and I facilitate tele-health sessions for insured clients across South Carolina.

As a licensed mental health counselor, I believe mental health ties to many different aspects of our lives. Many people find it difficult to ask for help and I can see the difference when people make that first step. My goal is that people do not struggle alone and I am here to help. I work with adults of all ages but really enjoy working with couples and women who experience anxiety, depression, or PTSD.
