About Matthew

Dr. Matthew Meyers uses a practical, question-driven approach to help people facing relationship strain and life transitions. He is Dr. Matthew Meyers, LMHC and LPC, and brings 20 years of counseling experience. He focuses on clear conversation and straightforward goals rather than jargon. Parents and people concerned about jealousy, communication breakdowns, or changes at work will find sessions that center on what matters now.

In sessions he asks thought-provoking questions to help people name what feels difficult. He aims to build on what is already working in a person’s life and to set realistic steps forward. The work often covers relationship issues, parenting strains, career decisions, and anger or self-esteem concerns. He also supports people dealing with fertility questions, fatherhood issues, and money or workplace stress.

Dr. Meyers draws on Existential Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy to shape conversations. That means talking about values and meaning, finding personal motivation, and setting small, practical goals. Sessions are collaborative and geared toward the client’s priorities rather than preset techniques.

He practices in California and uses language clearly and plainly during appointments. International work is not accepted. For people who prefer short-term coaching or longer therapy, he adapts the conversation to match goals and timing.

To begin, a prospective client completes a brief matching questionnaire and schedules according to the therapist’s availability. The focus is on helping people move through change with clearer choices and fewer repeated conflicts.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Existential Therapy helps people name what matters most and face big life choices. It focuses on meaning, personal values, and how choices shape day-to-day life, which can help with relationship doubts and questions about life purpose.

Motivational Interviewing centers on finding a person’s own reasons to change. It uses respectful, guided conversation to build motivation for steps like repairing communication, managing anger, or addressing career shifts.

Solution-Focused Therapy narrows attention to small, practical changes clients can try right away. It’s useful for setting short-term goals and tracking progress on specific issues such as jealousy, workplace problems, or parenting frustrations.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That conversation happens early and can shift as goals evolve.

The practical upside of online work is flexibility for busy schedules and easier access from different locations. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the available session types before booking. Online options can make it simpler to fit sessions into evenings or weekends, shorten some check-ins, and reduce travel time while keeping focus on real-life steps people can use between appointments.
