Matthew R. HicksClinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW (he, him)

About

If you are feeling overwhelmed by life’s demands, my aim is to introduce clarity, authenticity, and self-motivation. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I’ve been successfully treating adults, families, and youth for over 20 years facilitating growth and self awareness. I teach techniques to better manage the emotional stress of everyday life. I have also focused on extensive training in treating past and recent trauma, EMDR, OCD(utilizing ERP), anxiety/depression, play therapy, parenting, addiction, and working with family systems. I am passionate about promoting mental health access for all and fostering a therapeutic space based on compassion, equity, and dignity. The purpose of therapy is to become free from the grips of anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, and hurtful relationships. As human beings, we all struggle. Healing is when these struggles no longer control you.
