About Charles
Charles Matz is a licensed marriage and family therapist in Wisconsin with seven years of experience. He helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, anger, grief, relationship strain, or low self-esteem.

He frames clients as the expert on their own life and highlights existing strengths. Sessions focus on clear steps clients can try between meetings.
Background and approach
That could mean practicing new ways to communicate, managing intense emotions, or finding routines that reduce everyday pressure. Charles draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide work on communication problems, control issues, forgiveness, and shame or guilt. He uses straightforward tools rather than jargon, and stays focused on what helps someone move forward in daily life.
He also supports people coping with isolation and the ripple effects of loss. People meet with him for short-term practical goals or longer-term personal growth. He encourages small experiments and regular check-ins to measure progress.
He respects each person's pace and adjusts strategies to fit real-life demands. Sessions are offered in English and provided via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that works with the therapist’s availability.

Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care
Charles uses practical evidence-based techniques that teach skills for managing strong emotions. One common approach focuses on identifying triggers and building simple emotion-regulation strategies to reduce anger and anxiety in daily life. These techniques help people notice patterns and try small experiments to change them.Another helpful method emphasizes improving communication skills. This work helps people practice clearer requests, active listening, and ways to set boundaries so interactions feel less tense. It’s useful for relationship strain and repeated arguments where patterns keep repeating.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to understand goals, daily demands, and preferences, then recommend techniques to try. Strategies can be adjusted over time based on what proves useful in real life.
Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video lets people use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone can be a quicker check-in and works when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging provide short, immediate ways to touch base between sessions. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different comfort levels.
