About Matthew

Matthew McGhee is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) with 16 years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, and depression. He approaches therapy with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, shaping conversations and treatment plans to fit each person's circumstances and goals.

Background and approach

Matthew emphasizes practical, collaborative care that acknowledges where someone is starting and builds toward meaningful change. His work also addresses a broad range of related concerns including addiction and process addictive behaviors, anger and self-esteem struggles, career and life-purpose questions, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.

Matthew draws on evidence-informed methods such as client-centered work, cognitive behavioral strategies, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques to tailor interventions to individual needs. He encourages taking that first step into therapy and aims to create a supportive environment where clients can explore challenges and develop clearer ways forward.

Connecting therapeutic approaches with online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding the client's perspective and offering empathic, nonjudgmental support; it helps people feel heard and clarifies personal goals so change can come from the client's own strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and offers practical skills to address anxiety, depression, and stress-related patterns. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative conversational method that helps resolve ambivalence and strengthen commitment to change, often useful with addictive behaviors and lifestyle shifts.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and Matthew treats that choice as collaborative. He will work with clients to consider their needs, goals, and preferences and may draw from multiple methods to create a plan that fits their situation and comfort level.

Online therapy with Matthew can take place through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and needs. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions and provide multiple ways to engage in the work, whether someone prefers face-to-face conversation or written exchanges.
