Matt Riley is a compassionate Clinical Social Worker and therapist who understands that individuals can often find themselves submerged in complicated feelings that may feel confusing or overwhelming. He offers a supportive space for exploring the core truths of one’s inner life, including internalized relationships, longings, and past experiences. By guiding his clients through the exploration of their emotions, Matt enables them to navigate stuck points, process their issues toward closure, and emerge with a renewed appreciation for their lives and relationships. His approach is trauma-informed and attachment-focused, drawing primarily on psychoanalytic psychotherapy and Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy. Matt values compassion, intuition, and creativity, recognizing the significant ways that power and privilege affect our lives. He remains responsive to contextual influences, particularly the impacts of racism, sexism, transphobia, and ableism, believing that therapy should actively contribute to breaking cycles of internalized oppression.
