About Matthew
Matthew Federici is a Florida LMHC with ten years of clinical experience. He works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and patterns that come from family of origin. He also supports people coping with grief, anger, self-esteem problems, ADHD, and life changes.
He describes a direct, practical approach in sessions. Conversations tend to focus on how past family roles and expectations still shape current choices. He uses clear, evidence-based techniques to help people notice patterns, try different responses, and practice new skills between meetings.
Matthew combines cognitive behavioral strategies with acceptance-based work and attachment-focused thinking. That mix helps when someone wants to change unhelpful thoughts, manage intense emotions, or understand relationship patterns rooted in early life. He also draws on client-centered and dialectical behavior ideas to keep the work grounded in the person’s immediate concerns.
His background includes work in general mental health and substance-use settings. He has experience with both adults and youth across issues such as trauma-related concerns, impulse control, and health-related or terminal illness challenges. The practice is informed by those varied clinical settings and by a Christian perspective he notes in his background.
People interested in beginning work are asked to use the site’s matching tools and scheduling flow. The first steps typically include a short questionnaire and an initial session to identify priorities and plan next steps.
How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then take steps that match their values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and getting unstuck from old patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence present-day expectations and closeness, which is useful when family of origin patterns affect current relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Matthew will collaborate with each person to pick strategies that match their goals and preferences. That might mean trying behavioral experiments, practicing emotion regulation skills, or using acceptance exercises and then checking in about what helps.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm which online or in-person options are offered before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Others prefer a longer, full session to work through relationship patterns in depth. The therapist and client can decide together what pacing and format best fit everyday life.
