your therapy. your way.
Hi, I’m Matt, and I’m glad you found your way here.
I believe therapy should be an original creative experience not a paint-by-numbers approach.
Here the journey is less about changing yourself and more about letting go of what isn’t true to who you are, unlearning how you’ve been conditioned to see yourself, and recognizing that you’ve been good enough all along.
You can learn to love yourself unconditionally, cultivate self-compassion, and feel at peace. Our strength-based work together
will show you how.

(re)connection
I believe in the healing power of connection and I understand that disconnect happens when we’re overwhelmed by adversity.
I’ll walk you through the process of reconnecting to your emotions, your body, nature, and your authentic self to deliver the results you came for.

transformation
Let go of narratives that no longer serve you. When self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and fear of judgment hold you back, I can help you shed the layers of who you’ve been told to be so you can be the most authentic version of yourself.
I’ll guide you along a journey of transformation grounded in acceptance, self-compassion and driven by the belief that you are already enough.

how it works
new beginnings
The journey begins by exploring and acknowledging the genuine challenges you may be facing—without relying on a diagnosis to define you.
your origin story
Together, we'll uncover how your experiences have shaped you and your life. By adopting a strengths-based mindset, I'll show you how to embrace your journey with a lens of resilience and growth.
the reframe
There are no 'bad' feelings. Every emotion serves a purpose, either to protect or to inform us. By reframing so-called negative emotions, you can welcome them with curiosity rather than resistance.
transformative growth
Having cultivated a deeper connection to yourself, you can reclaim your strength and capacity for happiness leading to a richer, more fulfilling life, characterized by resilience, personal growth, and a greater sense of purpose.
At McDavid Creative Therapy you can expect the following transformative process applied in a customized way to meet your needs and preferences.

“From grief management to relationship and professional problems, my sessions with Matt consistently broadened my perception and understanding, which helped me shed assumptions that were no longer serving me and foster lasting personal growth.”
"The most meaningful thing that I took away from working with Matt is healing my inner child and cultivating self-compassion. These are two areas I didn't think I needed to work on, but through our sessions, Matt helped me realize that is where I needed to focus on to better myself. The way Matt presented these concepts left such a lasting impression on me and have continued to help me to this day."
"Matt's genuine enthusiasm for his sessions with me, along with his ability to consistently find new approaches to old problems, made every session rewarding."
"I enjoyed Matt's total acceptance of everything I shared with him. I have used other therapists that have expressed shock or surprise with my past and present experiences and I always felt welcome and supported by Matt. It was through his acceptance that I was able to open up more with him and make as much progress as I did."
