About Matthew
Dr. Matthew Meyers is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in California with 20 years of experience. He focuses on relationship and family concerns, parenting stresses, self-esteem, career questions, anger, and life changes. He also addresses fatherhood issues, fertility concerns, communication problems, and workplace challenges. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.
Matthew uses clear, direct conversation to help people sort through what matters at home and at work. He asks thought-provoking questions and listens for practical steps clients can take. He often builds on what already works in a person's life before shifting to new strategies. That approach can help with problems like arguments with a partner, parenting strain, or decisions about separation.
Across his practice he draws from Existential Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. He frames sessions around choices, values, and realistic goals. That makes talks about life purpose, money issues, or forgiveness more concrete. Sessions tend to focus on small, achievable changes rather than long theoretical discussions.
He has worked with individuals and couples and has experience addressing young adult issues and men’s concerns. He also supports people navigating divorce and separation, jealousy, and rebuilding self-love after loss. Clients who are visually impaired have been among those he has helped.
Matthew schedules primarily on weekday evenings and weekends and works from the West Coast time zone. To start, readers are asked to use the site matching process to set up an initial appointment and to confirm the current online session options before booking.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
Existential Therapy looks at personal values, meaning, and choices. It helps people who are rethinking life direction, coping with change, or wrestling with purpose. Sessions focus on what matters to the client and the decisions they face.Motivational Interviewing emphasizes small, realistic change. It helps clients who feel stuck or unsure about making adjustments in relationships, parenting, or work. The therapist asks targeted questions to clarify goals and strengthen motivation.
Solution-Focused Therapy centers on practical steps and short-term goals. It is useful for improving communication, resolving specific conflicts, and building on what already works. Sessions often create a clear, compact plan to try between meetings.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and the problems at hand, then suggest ways of working that make sense. That collaborative process helps shape session topics and pacing.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt the approach and structure to match a client's schedule and practical needs.
