About Matthew

Matthew Biermacher is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with five years of experience. He focuses on concerns such as anger, stress, anxiety, relationship strain, self-esteem, career stress, parenting challenges, and compounding issues like ADHD and depression. He talks plainly about the origins of problems and works with people to make practical changes.

He uses a solution-focused and systems-based approach. That means he looks at how different parts of a person's life interact and identifies specific problem factors. Conversations aim to clarify what is getting in the way and what can be changed next, rather than staying stuck on what went wrong.

Matthew also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Mindfulness methods to create concrete tools. These tools include ways to notice patterns of thought, manage intense emotions, and practice simple skills that reduce reactive behavior. Sessions are straightforward and skill-oriented when helpful.

He works with people dealing with complex relational topics, including communication problems, commitment concerns, blended family challenges, and issues tied to attachment or abandonment. He also addresses areas that intersect with sexual expression, such as kink and BDSM, and supports people navigating separation or divorce.

Matthew invites clients to set clear goals and to test small changes between sessions. He frames therapy as collaborative problem-solving, with practical steps and homework when that fits the person’s aims. To begin, people complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to see if the approach feels right.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Matthew integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy into online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which helps with anger, anxiety, and stress. DBT supplies concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance in heated moments.

He also uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice their reactions as they happen. Mindfulness practices can lower reactivity and help someone pause before responding, which is useful when anger builds up or resurfaces in relationships.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. Matthew will discuss goals, current stressors, and what has or hasn’t worked before recommending techniques. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as needed based on how the work is going.

Session format options are not specified in the original biography, so confirm the available online formats before booking. People often find online sessions helpful because they fit into work days, reduce travel time, and make it easier to try short check-ins when schedules are tight. Online sessions also let the therapist assign exercises and track skill practice between meetings to support steady progress.
