ABOUT MATTHEW

"The good news and the bad news are the same: you'll get through this."

Matthew is a registered psychologist in Ontario with over 20 years of experience helping individuals, couples, and families untangle life’s messiest knots—which sometimes means figuring out if what you’re arguing with your person about has anything to do with what you’re really arguing with your person about. He specializes in tackling challenges like stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship drama, and those 'who am I, really?' moments we all have at 3 a.m.

With a hefty dose of compassion, a knack for empathy, and the ability to make even the most awkward topics feel manageable, Matthew creates a safe, judgment-free zone where you can dig deep, connect the dots, and work toward meaningful change (no self-help clichés required).

Matthew’s approach draws from psychodynamic psychotherapy—because understanding your past helps you create your future—while also blending in CBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed treatment. Whether it’s exploring what makes you tick or building practices to survive that next family dinner, he works with you to figure out how you'll get to where you want to go. Therapy with Matthew isn’t just helpful—it’s a judgment-free zone for self-discovery, growth, and maybe even a laugh or two along the way.
