Matthew Elias, MFT

Hi, I'm Matthew Elias!

I'm a marriage and family therapist but you might also call me a personal trainer for your heart and mind.

I help people who want to create the healthiest self and family they can, but are held back because of challenging life experiences or never being taught what healthy self-acceptance looks like. 

I support them in retraining their habits, re-examine their thinking and express their needs so that they can live a life is full of peace and well-being. 

I know from my own personal work as well as 14 years working in this field that whatever struggles you're facing, you're not alone and that small baby steps lead to big changes. 

I believe that learning to listen to your feelings and needs and express them to the people in your life will have huge benefits for you. That's why I hope you will get in touch with me today.
