Matthew Salerno

I work with the whole arc of your life—from childhood patterns to what's happening right now. As a social worker, I specialize in helping young adults and adults navigate anxiety, depression, and trauma. My approach starts practical: we address recent events and immediate symptoms first, giving you concrete tools to manage distressing moments and ground yourself when things feel overwhelming. From there, we move deeper, exploring the underlying patterns and unconscious beliefs that shape how you respond to the world. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and psychodynamic approaches—drawing on whichever tools serve you best. I offer telehealth sessions and am currently accepting new clients. If you're ready to work through what's weighing on you while also understanding the roots beneath, I'd like to help.
