About Matthew

Matthew Digges is an Ohio LPCC with 11 years of clinical experience. He works with people who face anxiety, depression, trauma, and LGBT-related concerns, and he lists social anxiety among his areas of focus. He describes a collaborative style that centers the client's goals and practical steps forward.

He uses clear, direct conversation to help people name what feels difficult and try small changes. Sessions often include skills practice and reflections that link values to action. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to address patterns of thought and avoidant behavior.

Attachment-Based Therapy informs his attention to how past relationships shape current trust and closeness. That perspective is used when people want to understand recurring relationship patterns or attachment concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools are brought in for emotion regulation and distress tolerance when needed.

Matthew emphasizes workable strategies over jargon. He helps people break down social situations into manageable steps and rehearses responses in-session when that helps. He also supports people with sleep, eating, addiction, and career-related stress by applying the same practical focus.

Clients should expect a straightforward, person-centered process that blends skills training with reflective conversation. He offers services in English and practices under his Ohio LPCC credential. To begin, users follow the site flow to match and schedule a first session.

Therapeutic approaches used in remote work

Matthew often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when working remotely. ACT helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when anxious. CBT focuses on identifying patterns of thought and testing new behaviors to reduce avoidance and build confidence.

He also uses Attachment-Based Therapy ideas to look at how early relationships influence current interactions. That approach can help people understand repeated patterns in dating, friendships, or workplace dynamics and consider different responses.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist and client match methods to the person's goals, needs, and preferences, and they adjust plans over time. The emphasis is on trying methods that feel workable rather than sticking to a single labeled model.

The biography did not specify exact session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises like behavioral experiments, exposure tasks, or skills training to remote sessions to help with social anxiety and related concerns.
