01About Matt
Matt Youngberg is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Oklahoma. He offers direct, practical help for people dealing with relationship strain, parenting challenges, anger, and low self-esteem. His style is straightforward and focused on real change rather than long talk without direction.
Matt blends nearly a decade of counseling experience with years spent in education and offender work. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, along with other approaches, to tailor sessions to each person's needs.
Background and approach
Sessions are described as respectful but challenging, aimed at uncovering the root of a problem and moving toward workable solutions. He often asks questions that help people see patterns in their thinking and behavior. Then he works with them to try new responses and build healthier habits.
Expect clear feedback, practical strategies, and exercises to practice between meetings. Matt values honesty and direct conversation. He aims to push clients toward greater self-awareness while keeping compassion and sensitivity in the room.
His background includes community mental health, counseling people involved in the justice system, and more than ten years in education. Outside of counseling, he enjoys games, sports, and serving at his church. His experience and pragmatic approach appeal to people who want active, results-oriented work rather than open-ended exploration.

04Online support
How evidence-based approaches work online
CBT helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In online sessions a therapist might teach simple exercises, assign brief homework, and practice new ways of thinking during a video or phone visit. DBT focuses on emotional regulation and building coping skills for strong feelings. Online DBT work can include skill coaching, role practice, and step-by-step plans to reduce impulsive reactions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps most. Clients and the therapist decide together which tools to emphasize as progress unfolds.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving options for different needs. Video calls let people see visual cues and practice conversations. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and text can be used for shorter check-ins or to work through skills between longer meetings. These formats make therapy more flexible and easier to use alongside work and family life.
