About Me

Hi, I’m Matthew (they/them), your queer, neurodivergent therapist specializing in liberation-centered care, online and worldwide!

I know what it’s like to feel out of place in systems that weren’t built for you. After years of masking my own identities (as a non-binary, neurodivergent person), I now help clients:

• Reclaim their authenticity after years of "shoulds" and shame
• Heal trauma without compromising their weirdness or worth
• Build lives aligned with their values not societal expectations

Therapy That Honors Your Whole Self

I believe our differences are strengths not "symptoms" to fix. Systems matter and we’ll address oppression (ableism, cisheteronormativity, etc.) as part of your healing. Growth requires both compassion and challenge. I’ll cheer you on and hold you accountable.

My toolbox includes:

• Existential, ACT, IFS, Attachment, System, and Mindfulness-based Modalities
• Trauma-informed and culturally humble care that respects who and where you are
• Gentleness, creativity, and zero pathologizing of how you show up in the world

What I Bring to the Table:

• 10+ years supporting LGBTQ+, neurodivergent, and trauma-impacted folks.
• Lived experience navigating the systems we’ll unpack together.
• No cookie-cutter advice—your therapy will be as unique as you are.

Beyond the Therapy Room

When I’m not counseling, I’m usually: traveling the world (experiencing different cultures and adventures), making art or geeking out on history, and hiking to reset my nervous system (and identifying all the plants I can along the way).
