About

Counseling that meets you where you are

I'm David Matheson, and I've spent my career helping people navigate the moments that feel too heavy to carry alone — whether that's anxiety that won't quiet down, grief that feels endless, or a life transition that left you feeling lost.

My practice is rooted in the belief that healing happens in the context of a genuine relationship. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all approaches. Instead, I tailor each session to who you are, what you're facing, and what actually matters to you.

Based here in Draper, I work with individuals who are ready to do the work — not because they have to, but because they've decided they're worth it.

Services

What we can work on together

Every person who sits in my chair brings something unique. Here are some of the areas I commonly support.

Anxiety

When your mind won't stop racing, counseling can help you understand the patterns behind the worry and develop real strategies to feel more at ease.

Depression

Depression can make everything feel distant and heavy. Together, we'll work to uncover what's underneath and find a path back toward engagement and meaning.

Relationships

Whether it's with a partner, family member, or colleague — relational struggles can take a real toll. I help you understand your patterns and communicate more effectively.

Life Transitions

Career changes, loss, moving, or becoming a parent — transitions can upend everything. I help you find your footing and rebuild with clarity.

Stress & Burnout

When you're running on empty, even small things can feel overwhelming. I help you identify the sources of burnout and create sustainable change.

Self-Discovery

Sometimes the most important work is understanding who you are beneath the expectations and habits. I provide a space for honest, meaningful exploration.

Approach

Evidence-based, deeply personal

I draw from several proven therapeutic approaches — including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and mindfulness-based techniques — and blend them to fit you, not a textbook.

Sessions are collaborative. You're the expert on your own life; I'm here to help you see it more clearly, challenge what's holding you back, and develop practical tools you can actually use.

Whether we meet in person in my Draper office or online, the goal is the same: real progress at a pace that feels right for you.
