Matthew Butler
I am a licensed mental health counselor in Florida with 8 years of experience working as a counselor. I have worked with clients with a range of presenting concerns including depression, anxiety, substance use, parenting struggles, and general relationship problems. I have experience working with adults and children ages 5-17. My therapeutic style is a blend of cognitive-behavior and psychodynamic theory, and I am proficient with cognitive behavior therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, motivational interviewing, and interpersonal psychotherapy.
I've had years of experience working with parents and children, providing treatment for clients with depression and anxiety, and assertiveness training.
My job as a clinician is to tailor our sessions to what you need. I’m excited you’re taking steps towards change and am looking forward to our work together!
First session
Our first session will primarily focus on discussing what's brought you into seeking talk therapy, and identifying an outline for treatment goals. As we progress, the goals we set can be adjusted as needed. A strong benefit of talk therapy is that it is incredibly versatile. You might find some days you're looking for direct feedback, and other days you may need more process-focused attention.
Strengths
My job as a clinician is to tailor our sessions to what you need. That being said, I do have areas where I have more experience compared to others. I've had years of experience working with parents and children, providing treatment for clients with depression and anxiety, and assertiveness training.
Ideal clients
I'm focused on working with parents, young professionals, and people going through significant life changes or grief.
