About Matt

Matt Youngberg, LPC, helps people who are struggling with anger, relationships, and self-esteem find clearer pathways forward. He writes plainly and prefers a direct style that aims to identify core problems and workable steps. That straightforward approach can help when emotional reactions feel overwhelming or when communication keeps breaking down.

He brings eight years of counseling experience and over a decade as an educator to his work. Matt has worked in roles such as an offenders counselor and community mental health counselor. He blends those experiences into an eclectic approach, pulling helpful techniques from different therapies rather than sticking to one rigid method.

Matt describes his style as no-nonsense and goal-oriented. He can be challenging and asks clients to look honestly at their patterns. At the same time he emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion while doing that work.

Common concerns he addresses include anger, intimacy and relationship problems, parenting strains, and low self-esteem. He also helps people who face issues like control struggles, guilt and shame, midlife questions, and navigating divorce or separation.

Outside of counseling, Matt enjoys games, athletic activities, and serving at Life.Church. He works in Oklahoma and conducts sessions in English. To begin, readers should use the Start Therapy button and follow the matching steps to schedule time according to the available calendar.

How CBT and DBT Shape Online Work

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises and tracking to change unhelpful thinking patterns that feed anger or low self-esteem.

DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and stronger interpersonal interactions. It can help when strong reactions or communication breakdowns get in the way of daily life.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review your goals, needs, and preferences and recommend strategies that fit. Together you can try methods and adjust as progress unfolds.

The original profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm which options are available before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Talk with the therapist during the matching steps to learn which session arrangements match your schedule and goals.
