Hi, I’m Matty
I’m a counselor in Boulder, Colorado specializing in therapy for teenagers and young adults. I believe that everyone has the power to shape their life story, find hope and purpose, and navigate the unique challenges they face. My approach to therapy combines two evidence-based approaches, Narrative Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), to help my clients overcome adversities and build resilience.
I believe that therapy should be a safe and supportive space where clients feel heard, validated, and respected. My goal is to create a non-judgmental and compassionate environment where clients can explore their feelings, thoughts, and behaviors without fear of criticism or shame.
“As parents, we’ve seen a remarkable transformation in our daughter. She has become more self-assured and resilient. Matty’s guidance and expertise has not only benefited her but our entire family.”
