About Matthew
Dr. Matthew Reiser helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and grief. He also supports those facing parenting and family concerns, eating and sleeping problems, addictions, career changes, and ADHD.
He practices in Utah and provides services in English. Matt uses a straightforward, interactive style. Sessions are collaborative and focused on practical steps.
He listens closely, asks clear questions, and helps people try new ways of coping between visits.
Background and approach
His work draws on cognitive behavioral methods, client-centered ideas, and emotion-focused techniques. That mix lets him address thoughts, behaviors, and the emotions that drive them. He adapts what he offers to fit each person's situation and goals.
He trained in counseling psychology and has nearly two decades of experience in clinical settings. That background includes several university counseling centers and independent practice work. He pairs clinical experience with an emphasis on everyday skills people can use right away.
People meet him and map out concrete goals together. That can mean learning to manage anger, changing upsetting thought patterns, improving communication, or building routines for sleep and eating. He frames therapy as a process of discovery and gradual change.

How his approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, and people struggling with anger or difficult life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets thoughts and behaviors directly by teaching skills to change patterns that maintain distress. It often helps with anxiety, depression, sleep, and habits related to eating or addiction. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens and follows the person's pace; that approach supports people working through grief, relationship struggles, and self-esteem concerns.Choosing the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which approach or combination fits their goals and preferences. Together they set practical goals and check progress over time, adjusting the plan as needed.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is useful for in-depth conversation and emotion-focused work. Phone calls can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging let people check in between appointments or use brief check-ins during a busy day. These options help fit therapy into work, family, and other routines.
