Hi...my name is Matt Bastiaanse and I am a licensed Marriage and Family therapist. I specialize in working with individuals who are looking for help to get "unstuck," in both their personal, and professional lives.

I'm passionate about my work; it is my vocation and avocation. In addition to my practice, I write self-help books. I have over 35 years' experience; and particular expertise in treating OCD (adults and children) and treating couples (especially intimacy issues).

"I offer solution-focused, interactive sessions assisting you in facing challenges, overcoming obstacles, coping with stress, resolving areas of conflict and improving self-esteem."

My goal is to help you find the strength to review life's troubling issues and form new perceptions. My approach is called "Integrative Family Therapy" which focuses on two aspects: how you function as an individual and how you relate to others helping you to heal.

As a couples and individual therapist, I believe therapy should be a compassionate and collaborative process that gives you a voice. Together, I help you step over the hurdles between you and your most fulfilled and authentic life.
