About Matthew
Matthew Green is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, and anger. He also supports those coping with trauma, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. Matthew practices in New York and offers sessions in English.
Matthew believes people know their own stories and brings a practical, respectful tone to sessions. He focuses on building on a person’s strengths and on small, manageable steps.
Background and approach
Conversations are direct and down-to-earth so clients can try new ways of responding to old problems. In the room he listens for patterns that keep problems alive, then helps clients practice different responses. He works with issues such as panic attacks, social anxiety, workplace stress, and relationship strain.
He also addresses family of origin concerns, guilt and shame, and challenges many men bring to therapy. Matthew draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. He treats mood disorders, bipolar concerns, and post-traumatic stress with a focus on practical coping skills.
Sessions often include goal setting, skill practice, and regular check-ins on progress. His approach is collaborative: clients and therapist set the pace together. Matthew encourages people to notice small wins and to apply new skills between sessions.
He frames treatment as a step-by-step process toward clearer choices and calmer responses.

Evidence-based approaches and online care
Matthew uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and clear goals. One approach emphasizes learning and practicing coping skills to manage anxiety and panic symptoms, helping people notice triggers and try different responses. Another approach focuses on processing trauma and its impacts by breaking problems into manageable steps and building emotional regulation skills to reduce reactivity.Deciding which approach to use is a shared process. The therapist collaborates with each person to understand their goals, preferences, and daily life, then adjusts techniques as progress unfolds. This collaborative planning helps ensure the work feels useful and relevant rather than one-size-fits-all.
Online sessions offer flexibility and a range of formats to fit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skills work and deeper dialogue. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when video isn't possible or when bandwidth is low. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or pacing support between longer sessions. Together these options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or busy family schedules.
