More about Laura Matthews, LCSW

Are you feeling stuck or unmotivated? Does every decision feel overwhelming? Feeling lonely or isolated? In these modern and disconnected times, it’s not uncommon to feel just not right—even without a major life stressor. Many people enter therapy when it’s hard to pinpoint what’s wrong, but they know they haven’t been feeling like themselves. I specialize in working with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, and challenges adjusting to life transitions or new medical diagnoses. I approach therapy with compassion, curiosity, and warmth. I believe that through exploration comes a greater understanding of ourselves and others. With this new perspective, we can choose how to respond more purposefully to life’s challenges. I understand people and their problems through a psychodynamic lens and incorporate principles from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Gestalt Therapy. I’m particularly interested in working with people navigating new experiences, roles, dynamics, or medical diagnoses. I am excited to work with curious, insightful individuals who are motivated to do this work—even when it’s challenging. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from New York University and a Bachelor’s degree from Williams College.
