Matthew Walters, LPC

Matthew Walters is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 12 years of clinical experience. He works with adults who want to understand and manage stress, anxiety, anger, relationship strain, addiction, grief, and life changes.

Matthew focuses on practical steps people can use right away. He listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and helps clients try different responses. Sessions include straightforward talk, goal setting, and planning small experiments to test new ways of handling situations.

He draws on client-centered methods to keep the conversation grounded in each person's goals. Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that feed frustration and anger. Motivational interviewing helps when someone is weighing change, such as cutting back on substance use.

Matthew also uses narrative and solution-focused work to help people rewrite how they see difficult events and build specific next steps. That can be useful for coping with family conflict, career stress, and feelings of emptiness or low self-esteem.

People often come with problems tied to attachment, communication, codependency, or caregiver strain. He helps them map those patterns and practice clearer ways of asking for what they need. Sessions aim to produce small, repeatable changes rather than quick fixes.

For those dealing with anger, Matthew helps identify triggers, develop safer responses, and repair strained relationships. He invites a steady, problem-solving approach so clients can try new habits between sessions.
