Hi, I'm Matt Zupko, a licensed counselor with nearly 20 years of experience. I specialize in helping people manage anxiety, depression, and the challenges of life transitions. Starting therapy can be daunting, especially if it's your first time. But you've already taken a big step, and that's something to be proud of! If you're returning to therapy, that's great – it's a sign that you're committed to feeling better. People come to therapy for many reasons. They might be dealing with a long-term issue or a recent challenge. Some seek a neutral ear to discuss their struggles. They may feel stuck in their situation, but they all share one thing: they're ready for a change.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Meeting someone new for the first time can sometimes feel a bit nerve-wracking, especially when discussing sensitive topics. During our initial sessions, we'll take things gently, allowing us to get to know each other and explore why you're reaching out for help. I'll follow your lead, making sure you feel safe and comfortable enough to open up at your own pace.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I'm a compassionate and understanding listener who takes a relaxed approach to therapy. I've been managing depression and anxiety since I was a child, and I sometimes share how my experiences relate to a client's current situation.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My approach is customized for each individual, as no two people are the same. I assist clients in identifying patterns of behavior that have resulted in negative outcomes, impacting their relationships, work, and personal lives. I've supported many clients dealing with bipolar disorder, PTSD, trauma, grief, and work-life balance issues, among other conditions.

My treatment methods

Person-centered (Rogerian)

This approach ensures that each client's needs are met in the most effective way possible. It combines the best ideas and techniques from several other methods, tailoring them to each client's individual situation.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

This is a well-known, "gold standard" approach that has been demonstrated to be effective for many people facing many issues. It is one of the most commonly used "go-to" methods. This is based on the idea that there is a direct link between thoughts, expectations, and behavior that, with attention, can be changed.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

A useful approach that many find helpful, mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) has been incorporated into many different disciplines recently. This can be particularly helpful for those with anxiety.
