Matthew Damon, PsyD

I specialize in helping people overcome anxiety disorders and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). I use a proven type of treatment called Exposure Therapy, a type of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) which research shows is the most effective treatment for all types of anxiety and OCD. Exposure Therapy involves purposely confronting feared triggers and thoughts so we retrain your brain that they are not actually dangerous and the thoughts and situations that lead to anxiety eventually lose their power and no longer provoke anxiety. I would be a good fit for you if you are looking for clear, straightforward direction on what to do about your anxiety problem. My approach is not traditional talk therapy where we spend most of the time simply talking about the problem; I will show you exactly what to do about it, then we will practice it together and I will help you implement it into your life so it works. If you are going to invest the time and money in therapy with me, I want you to get results and I want you to get them as quickly as possible. I am passionate about helping people get relief from anxiety and OCD and if you are suffering with anxiety, I would love to help you.

I offer a free 20 minute phone consultation where I will hear a bit about the issues you are having and then tell you some specifics about how I would treat your problem and answer any questions you have about the process, my methods, or my practice. I encourage you to contact us to set up this free phone consultation to learn more. I also offer home visits and online therapy sessions via video chat for clients unable to make it to the office. You can also learn a great deal more about my practice, including client testimonials and success stories, on my website (see the link on the lower right of this page).
