Matthew McKenna, LMFT — Therapist in New York

Hi there, I'm Matthew!

I offer support to individuals, couples, and families navigating life's complexities and adversities. My goal is to help you find clarity and direction as you work through the challenges you're facing.

My focus

I work with individuals, couples, and families seeking support through life's complexities.

My approach

We will explore the obstacles you bring to therapy, acknowledging the ways you've already begun addressing adversity while discovering new avenues to grasp, overcome, and accept challenges.

My communication style

I approach therapy as a collaborative journey, offering support and clarity as we work together toward your goals.

My journey to mental healthcare

Growing up in the helping field and experiencing various complexities myself, I find it a pleasure to support others through their own journeys.

My goals for you

After each session, you will feel a better sense of direction in pursuit of your overall goals. Therapy serves as your compass when life feels disorienting, uncertain, or overwhelming.
