About Matthew
Matthew George is a licensed clinical social worker with 33 years of experience. He practices in Kansas and helps people navigate stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, anger, depression, and attention concerns. He writes plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use right away.
Matthew prefers a straightforward, goal-minded style. Sessions concentrate on what a person wants to change and on small, achievable steps toward that goal. He combines different methods so each session fits the person in front of him rather than a fixed formula.
Background and approach
In appointments he uses conversation and simple exercises to identify patterns that get in the way. He helps people try new ways of thinking and acting, then checks what works and what needs adjusting. Progress is tracked in clear, concrete terms so clients know when things are moving forward.
Many clients come with stress or anxious thoughts that interfere with daily life. Others ask for help handling parenting strain, low mood, anger, or difficulties related to attention. Matthew draws on approaches shown to help with these concerns and tailors them to each person’s situation.
People who choose him say they want practical tools and a calm, experienced guide. He offers a steady, no-nonsense approach that aims for real, usable change over time.

Approaches and online care that fit your life
Many of Matthew's methods focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors into more helpful ones. Cognitive behavioral techniques look at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teach practical skills to reduce anxiety and low mood. Solution-focused methods concentrate on small, concrete steps and on what is already working, which can be useful for short-term goals and parenting challenges. Client-centered work creates a respectful space where a person's own goals guide the pace and focus of sessions.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Matthew will collaborate with each person to choose what fits their goals, needs, and preferences, and then revise the plan as progress is tracked. The process is a team effort aimed at clear, achievable changes rather than a one-size-fits-all program.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when that helps, while phone work can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it possible to share updates or brief concerns between full sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy days and keep momentum between appointments.
