Mr Patrick Matthews

Licensed Professional Counselor

verified by TherapyRoute

“My ideal client is ready to work on self improvement whether it is dealing with past trauma, or with current relationships. I specialize in depression and anxiety. These are the most common afflictions in mental health but they are connected to many other issues going on in our mental health. I am also familiar with ADHD, trauma, bipolar disorder, and other disorders. I find that everyone is different and we have to find what works for you. I encourage all my clients to practice meditation and write in a journal. I like to help my clients see something they haven't seen before so they can make lasting changes.”

About Me

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor offering confidential, practical therapy for teens and adults. I use proven techniques to treat anxiety, depression, stress, relationship problems, and life transitions. I have over 20 years experience in the counseling field. I have spent some time living abroad. I have worked as a financial advisor/life planner and in the educational system as a adjunct professor and day treatment counselor. I am looking for people serious about improving their mental health.

Approach

Sessions feel practical and focused, paced to match your priorities and the realities of daily life. In-session we set clear goals, use straightforward skill practice and check-ins, and I offer short, actionable strategies you can try between meetings to manage anxiety, low mood, or attention challenges. I keep sessions collaborative and measurable, adjusting pace when needed and bringing a calm, structured presence. This approach tends to suit adults who want concrete tools and steady progress.
