Matthew Evans
Marriage & Family Therapist -
I am a marriage and family therapist licensed in California with over 5 years experience. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including anxiety (ie. social anxiety, OCD, Panic Disorder, Phobias), work stress, career challenges, coming of age and life changes, depression, relationship issues, anger management, substance use, and trauma. I have specialized training in the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy approaches, as well as for treating individuals with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.Therapy can be a place for healing from past upsetting situations and growing as a person towards the life you want to live. Since therapy can bring up a lot of varying emotions, my first priority is to create a safe space where you feel comfortable and not judged for what you share.While I have a wealth of knowledge of therapy interventions and techniques, you are the expert of your own life; my job is merely to assist you along the way. Together we can use your personal strengths to cope, connect with others, and handle life’s many issues. I look forward to meeting you for our first session!
