About Matthew

Matthew Digges is an Ohio LPCC with 11 years of clinical experience supporting adults through strong emotions and life shifts. He works with people facing anger, anxiety, depression, trauma, and issues connected to identity and relationships. Sessions are aimed at helping clients manage reactions, rebuild routines, and handle everyday pressures more steadily.

Matthew uses clear, practical methods rather than jargon. He draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. He also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people notice feelings and choose actions that match their values.

Attachment-based ideas guide work on trust and patterns learned in relationships. Client-centered principles shape how he listens and reflects so people can name what matters most to them. Dialectical behavior approaches add concrete skills for intense emotions and interpersonal tension.

In session the focus is on problem-solving and skill practice. Expect direct conversation about what triggers strong reactions and step-by-step strategies to respond differently. Matthew helps people build routines for sleep, stress, and cravings when those areas cause trouble.

He also addresses identity-related concerns including LGBT issues, and related stresses like grief, caregiving strain, and work pressure. Practical coaching around career and life changes is available alongside therapeutic work. Before booking, people should confirm current session formats and any practical details they need to prepare.

How sessions work

How his approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and then pick actions that match their values. It can be useful for anger, anxiety, and life transitions where values and behavior need alignment. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going, then practicing alternatives to reduce reactivity and improve sleep and mood.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions and trust. That approach can help people recognize repeating patterns in relationships and learn new ways to connect and set boundaries. Matthew draws from these approaches to build practical exercises and conversation topics that fit what a person brings to session.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most useful and adjust over time based on goals and progress. Sessions are a team effort to test skills and refine what helps most.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, offer shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also allows practicing skills in real life between meetings so change can be worked on where it matters.
