About Henry "Hank" Matthews

Henry "Hank" Matthews is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who has practiced since 2005, bringing more than 20 years of clinical experience including his counseling internship. He approaches the work as a serious responsibility and has spent his career meeting people where they are to offer support, resources, and steady encouragement.

His earliest clinical focus was addiction treatment, and that work naturally expanded into couples therapy and relationship-focused care. In addition to addictions and relationship work, he helps people strengthen self-esteem and self-confidence, manage symptoms of depression and anxiety, and when appropriate, explore grief, loss, and patterns of codependency.

He frames counseling as a process that validates feelings, broadens response options, and fosters new insight. He believes every individual and every couple brings both strengths and challenges, and that identifying and addressing those challenges supports better quality of life and healthier relationships. He also holds that people who genuinely want to change and who are willing to try different behaviors can make meaningful progress.

His clinical approach draws on attachment-based therapy, client-centered therapy, emotionally-focused therapy (EFT), and motivational interviewing. As an LPC, he is a state-licensed mental health professional trained to provide counseling and guidance to individuals and couples.
