Are you navigating anxiety, depression, or the challenges of recovery? You don't have to face it alone. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Maryland, I specialize in supporting adults who are ready to do meaningful work — at whatever stage of life or recovery they're in.

I bring several years of specialized experience supporting adults in recovery, and a background in equine-assisted psychotherapy that informs my understanding of emotional connection, healing, and growth in ways that go beyond the traditional therapy room. Whether you're working through life transitions, struggling with anxiety or depression, or building a life in recovery, I focus on helping you develop practical coping skills, deeper self-awareness, and lasting resilience.

Therapist

They say you can’t choose your family, but you can choose your therapist, and I promise I’m a much better listener than your Uncle Chip. I’m Matt, and I’ve spent the last ten years helping people navigate the 'plot twists' of life. With a master's degree from Catholic University and a specialty in anxiety, relationships, and life adjustments, I’ve learned that while I can't wave a magic wand to fix your problems, I’m excellent at helping you find where you dropped yours. Let's get to work... no promises there won't be more metaphors down the road though.
