About Matthew
Matthew Federici is a Florida-based licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with a decade of experience working with adults and youth in both general mental health and substance use settings.
Background and approach
He draws on a blend of practical, evidence-informed techniques to address common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and grief, and ADHD. Matthew integrates therapeutic tools to help clients manage symptoms, build coping skills, and navigate life transitions.
His approach combines acceptance and commitment strategies, cognitive behavioral methods, attachment-informed perspectives, and client-centered principles to tailor treatment to each person's needs. He has worked with people facing relationship and intimacy difficulties, self-esteem struggles, anger and communication problems, eating and sleeping issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and a range of co-occurring concerns.
Matthew's practice also addresses less commonly discussed areas like abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, autism spectrum considerations, and compassion fatigue. Clients seeking flexible care can connect with him from across Florida through video, phone, live chat, or messaging formats.
He practices from a values-informed viewpoint and offers a collaborative space for exploring goals, learning skills, and making meaningful changes over time.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify personal values and commit to actions that align with those values while developing psychological flexibility; it can be useful for managing anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through practical exercises and structured skill-building, often supporting work on mood, anxiety, addictions, and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy explores relational patterns that shape emotional responses and can help with intimacy, communication, and trust issues within interpersonal relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and this therapist works collaboratively to tailor methods to a client's needs, goals, and preferences. Together they will consider which techniques fit best and adjust the plan as progress and circumstances evolve, blending strategies when that serves the client's aims.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility for people with busy schedules or mobility constraints. These options allow ongoing work on skills, homework, and check-ins between sessions, making it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing daily responsibilities.
