About Matthew

Matthew Durdovic is an Arizona-based Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with eight years of clinical experience helping people navigate addiction, self-esteem challenges, and major life transitions. He works with individuals coping with compassion fatigue, concentration and memory concerns, and a range of process and substance-related addictions.

Background and approach

Matthew emphasizes practical support and encouragement while honoring each person's strengths and lived experience. He blends cognitive and humanistic approaches to address both thought patterns and the quality of the therapeutic relationship.

That combination means he helps clients reframe unhelpful thinking while building a collaborative, trust-based partnership. Matthew frames clients as experts on their own lives and focuses on empowering them to take the steps they choose toward greater well-being and purpose.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Flexible Online Care



Matthew draws from cognitive methods that focus on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns, which can be useful for addressing addictive behaviors, concentration problems, and self-critical beliefs. He also uses humanistic principles that emphasize empathy, respect, and a collaborative therapeutic relationship to help clients build confidence and uncover personal strengths.

Finding the best approach is part of the work together. Matthew frames therapy as a collaborative process, helping clients explore which techniques fit their goals and preferences while adjusting the plan as progress and needs evolve. This shared decision making helps tailor sessions to individual circumstances and priorities.

Online therapy with Matthew is offered through multiple formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - to provide accessibility and convenience. These options make it easier to maintain regular contact, fit sessions into busy schedules, and continue care across different life situations. Licensed professionals can adapt interventions across these formats to support progress toward recovery, improved self-esteem, and clearer life direction.
