About me

I am a Community Counselor. I have spent my time as a therapist side by side with children and teens in their homes with family, in their schools with teachers, and out in the community with friends. I have worked with people on the Autism Spectrum, with ADHD, depression, mood disorders, and end of life issues.

My approach to helping has always been to help you define your current purpose. I utilize a client-centered approach, cognitive behavioralism, and existentialism. I want you to feel heard, feel seen, and feel you are important. We will work together to help you on your journey.

I am glad you are here and I look forward to working with you.

Matthew has really taught me a lot this past year and a half. I always look forward to our sessions weekly. He has really taught me to stop making stories up in my head before anything actually happens. Still a work in progress but he pushes me to continue to do that. He is blunt and honest and will tell me exactly what I need to hear without sugar coating anything. That right there is what makes him a very good therapist! I have been with many and he is the first one to tell me like it is and he is always right. He does a great job knowing what will happen before it even happens, especially when I think he is wrong. haha. Having to admit that I was wrong is a lot harder than just doing it right in the first place. I appreciate Matthew and everything that he has helped me with. I wouldn't be where I am today had I not reached out for help when I needed it. Thank you, Matthew, for hanging in there with me. I know it has been quite the adventure!!

Written on Sep 19, 2023 after therapy with Matthew for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship issues, sleeping disorders, and coping with life changes

I've just recently began working with Matthew and from the first session he changed my way of thinking and my attitude towards problems its early days but makes me feel very comfortable and helpful to getting me on the right track

Written on Aug 08, 2023 after therapy with Matthew for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, eating disorders, self esteem, and coping with life changes

Matthew is so attentive and caring. I just started working with him a little over a week ago and I can already see improvements in myself. I would 10/10 recommend working with Matthew if possible.

Written on Jul 06, 2023 after therapy with Matthew for 2 years on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, lgbt, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, sleeping disorders, parenting issues, and coping with life changes

I have been seeing Matt for over 2 years now. At the start I was an emotional mess, all over the place and unstable in myself and my self-worth.

Now I’ve built self-confidence, am clear on my values, and the values I will accept from others. Matt has helped me recognise toxic traits, and although I can’t remove the people who exhibit these traits from my life for various reasons- he helps me navigate the complexities of these relationships.

On a personal note; My lifestyle is not the norm- I identify as polyamorus (multiple partners, with not all relationships of a sexual nature) - which Matt is able to comprehend, and provide appropriate support without resorting to “text book answers” or judging me for my lifestyle choices and relationship structure.

Written on Jun 28, 2023 after therapy with Matthew for 2 months on issues concerning lgbt, relationship issues, grief, and self esteem

Matthew Miller has been such an amazing therapist. He truly helped me beyond my expectations of what I initially started therapy for. He is direct and always knows the right thing to say and was able to keep me asking myself the right questions and remembering my intentions.

Written on Jun 22, 2023 after therapy with Matthew for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and anger management

Matthew’s approach entails both a sensible worldview and practical, “actionable” behaviors for personal development. He is a no-nonsense person coupled with compassionate concern and I absolutely appreciate such authenticity. I am grateful to have him in my corner and look forward to our sessions.

Matthew has helped me tremendously. I was looking for a therapist with whom I could be myself, and feel comfortable sharing anything. What I also appreciated about Matthew's approach was that it felt authentic, and not overly sugar-coated. I could ask his opinion and he would give it to me, as is. He challenged me in many ways and helped me go through some important changes in my life and feel a lot more confident. I hope to keep connecting with Matthew in the future. He has been my best experience with therapy so far. I highly recommend his services. Thank you, Matthew!

Matthew helped me turn my life around through identifying and dissecting all the roots of my issues. From someone who has had no prior experience before teencounseling.com, my mind is forever set that everyone should see a therapist at least once in their lifetime, and I credit Matthew for that. Thank you for everything.

If you're lucky enough to have him as a therapist - Matthew is capable of understanding people on a deep level even from the first session.

My experience with the sessions were enlightning and he made me feel comfortable speaking about my concerns even if I have anxiety and even if the topic in discussion might have been heavy.

Matching with Matthew felt like a miracle. I spent 8 years struggling to find a good therapist. He listens and encourages me to talk, I always struggled with therapy because I don’t know what to say but his energy makes him so easy to talk to. He has a way of identifying my anxieties before I can even identify them myself and provides me with real and effective coping skills for my anxiety and intrusive thoughts. Before Matthew I would go months without talking to my therapist but I find myself wanting to schedule with him every other week and looking forward to it. Incredibly smart and as a bonus hes funny. When I talk to my friends about therapy they tell me they are jealous that I have such an amazing therapist. I can’t express how grateful I am to have finally found a truly good and caring therapist.
