Dr. Matt Milstead is a dedicated mental health counselor with over 25 years of experience working with children, families, and now adults. He holds a PhD from the prestigious University of Notre Dame, where he graduated in 1993. With a rich background as a school psychologist, Dr. Milstead's practice has evolved to focus on mindfulness-based approaches, insight and behavior education, and teamwork for professionals. In the fall of 2023, he will introduce individual journaling sessions, designed to foster a collaborative environment where both the therapist and client learn from each other’s perspectives. This journaling approach encourages emotional exploration and aids in developing effective problem-solving strategies and increased self-awareness. Additionally, Dr. Milstead will utilize his book, 'Hope & Knowledge', for short reading assignments that complement his therapeutic work, with the release anticipated on Amazon by July or August 2023. Through these innovative methods, he aims to enhance parent education and support individuals in their journey towards mental wellness.
