Great to meet you!

Welcome! My name is Matthew ("Matt") Mehltretter and I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC). I have a variety of clinical experiences working in inpatient, outpatient, and crisis counseling. You likely found your way here because you're looking for change- change in a relationship, change in your habits and behavior, or change in how you handle anxiety, sadness or stress. I'm here to help you figure out the parts of you (and of life) that can be hard to manage.

My approach to therapy

I'm not just a therapist; I'm a fellow human being who understands the twists and turns that life can throw our way. Together, we'll navigate those murky waters at your pace with empathy, understanding, and a touch of humor when needed. I value a non-judgmental approach over all else and will offer you unconditional positive regard.

What you can expect from me

Clients work with me at their pace on building insight, practicing acceptance, challenging unhelpful thought & behavior patterns, and learning skills to improve their self-care and coping. When you walk into my space, please know that you are a valued individual deserving of respect, compassion, and genuine connection.
