Matt Clements, EdM

I am a Masters Level Clinician with experience as a licensed School Social Worker and Adjustment Counselor in Massachusetts.

I am currently pursuing my Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential as well. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology and Linguistics from Columbia University and a Master’s in Education in Prevention Science and Practice from the Harvard Graduate School of Education, where I also completed a Certificate of Advanced Study in Adolescent Counseling.

I am experienced in working with individuals of diverse cultural backgrounds, gender identities, and sexualities, helping them manage issues like anxiety, depression, grief, mood disorders, and acculturative or post-traumatic stress.

I specialize in working with adults and adolescents dealing with anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, social difficulties, life transitions, relationship struggles, LGBTQIA+ identity exploration, and/or acculturative stress. I work with clients to strengthen self-confidence, create meaningful connections, help them feel more at ease in their identities, navigate major transitions, and develop the tools to handle life’s challenges with greater resilience.

I can provide therapy in English, Spanish, and Portuguese.

In my sessions, I prioritize building a caring and collaborative therapeutic relationship where clients feel comfortable reflecting on their experiences and exploring paths toward their desired life outcomes.

I use a blend of evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and mindfulness/meditation techniques, tailored to you and your needs.

My approach integrates both reflective techniques, such as narrative therapy and journaling, and more directive methods, like CBT and Solution-Focused Therapy, depending on what best supports you.
