About Matthew
Matthew Digges is an Ohio LPCC with 11 years of clinical experience. He works with adults who want clearer ways to manage anger, stress, anxiety, and related struggles. He also helps people dealing with depression, trauma, and LGBTQ concerns.
He keeps conversations straightforward. Sessions focus on what’s happening now and practical steps to reduce reactivity and recurring frustration. Matthew draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and Dialectical Behavior Therapy for skills that calm intense moments.
He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients notice what matters most and take committed action, and Attachment-Based approaches to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. Client-Centered methods guide how he listens and reflects so people can make their own choices.
Matthew works with a broad set of issues beyond anger, including sleep and eating problems, addiction, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, career stress, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. He pays attention to overlapping challenges like chronic illness, caregiver stress, and identity-related issues.
In sessions he focuses on skills practice, clear feedback, and planning small changes between meetings. New clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
Sessions are offered in English and international clients are not currently accepted. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.
Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online
Matthew commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and gives specific exercises to test new ways of thinking. It can help with anger that stems from patterns of interpretation and automatic reactions.He also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer interpersonal communication. DBT skills are useful when strong feelings come on suddenly or when arguments escalate quickly.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is another tool he brings into sessions. ACT helps people notice what they value, accept difficult feelings without fighting them, and take small committed steps toward those values. It tends to be helpful for longer term change and reducing avoidance.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Matthew will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and daily life. That may mean blending techniques across CBT, DBT, and ACT as progress requires.
Confirm the exact session formats during the matching and scheduling steps, since the profile did not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into workdays, reduce travel time, allow brief check-ins when schedules are tight, and let people practice skills in the environments where problems actually occur. Licensed professionals can use these practical benefits to help clients build steady routines and apply new skills between sessions.
