As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I stress the importance of developing a trusting relationship with my clients with the purpose of helping them understand the origin and nature of their issues and concerns so that we can overcome them. When we empower ourselves to make choices and changes for our own happiness, we can begin to live the life we want and not have to suffer through a life that we don’t.
I practice a Solution-Focused and Systems-based approach. I believe that everything in one’s life is connected and complex. By identifying specific problem-factors, a person has the capability to decide to make changes that will result in their desired solution.
I'm ready to be your catalyst for change, so let's get to work.

My goals in going to therapy are to 1) understand myself and (2) have someone keep me accountable and push back when I try to backslide in my progress. In the couple of sessions I've had, Matt has rekindled my self-confidence, which is huge for me because I usually seek validation in others, but he was able to show me that my own approval of me is the most important foundation of growth. I always look forward to our sessions because I get affirmation in my progress and I learn something new about me.

From the very start, Matthew has not only made me feel comfortable but seen. Which is something I truly struggle with in general. I’ve been through a couple different therapists over the years, and honestly Matthew has been the best. He has this innate ability to relate, brings humor and a sense of peace that just feels so natural. I look at therapy as a safe space for honesty and complete trust and he truly exemplifies that. He holds me accountable for my words and actions, all while challenging me to see things from different perspectives. Albeit a short time working together so far, I cannot recommend him enough. His knowledge and frankness resonate with my know-it-all mentality.

Matthew is very insogtful and an excellent listener,its good and simple advice that is simple to follow, Then the nuances are discussed to help understand the advice better.
I do recommend him for people who want to further develop their ability to handle internalization and freeing themselves of the shackles of their own making.

I'm very happy that BetterHelp recommended Matthew to me. I was nervous about having a male therapist but he proved those worries unnecessary. He is friendly and easy to talk to, and goes out of his way to ensure the comfort of his clients as well as offering a feeling of safety that allows me to be open with him.

Matt took a chance at working with someone younger (me) and it was a surprise to us both he’s genuinely amazing and works in ways that I’ve never experienced with any other type of Councelor/therapist I’ve ever had he helped me realize the one person I need to give credit for working so hard under tense situations for years is me and made me actually start to love myself and is super reassuring and tells me the exact portion of what I want and need to hear he’s amazing in short and exactly the kind of help I needed

Matthew Biermacher took the time to patiently listen to me and provide strategies on how to overcome multiple issues that I have been going through. He asked very good questions to get me to open up more about my life and the issues and allowed me to feel comfortable in doing so. He would respond in a timely manner if ever I had any questions or needed some much needed encouragement. I highly recommend Matthew Biermacher to anyone that needs help in any area of their life, or even just needs an ear to listen.

Awesome! For the short amount of time we have been working together, he has been spot on since the beginning. I used to dread therapy, as its extremely hard for me to open up to anyone, but he makes it something I look forward to. I look forward to bettering myself and working with him more. He is one of those few and far between real genuine kind of people/therapists. Thank you!

Matthew has been extremely helpful in my professional and personal life. I have made great strides. He helps me understand why I feel or think a certain way and gave me solutions to make my life better. I already had more than 5 sessions discussing many different topics, and every time we made an action plan that would improve my situation. Thanks, Matthew for all of your help.

Matthew is great and very easy to talk to. It feels like chatting with a friend who gives very good and insightful advice. If you want an experience that feels more like a conversation than an interrogation, then I definitely recommend Matthew.

Made me feel comfortable immediately. I was nervous about meeting with a counselor and within the first 20 minutes I had told him my most personal issues and he didn’t make me feel weird or uncomfortable about it. I look forward to every meeting with him. Highly recommend!

Very down to earth and personable. If you're the type who doesnt feel comfortable opening up. Especially to a stranger. Matthew is your guy. He can talk about your deepest darkest thoughts or just shoot the shit with you. Whatever makes you the most comfortable.
