Dr. Matthew Reiser is a UT Psychologist (UT Psychologist 5184406-2501) with 19 years of experience practicing in Utah. He sees adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, mood concerns, addictions, grief, parenting and blended family issues.

Matthew trained in family and counseling psychology and has worked across university counseling centers and private practice settings. That background shapes a straightforward style aimed at problem-solving and rebuilding routines after big life changes. He mentions experience with biofeedback and sport psychology in his past work.
Clients can expect goal-oriented conversations, behavior-based tools, and work on how relationships affect daily life. He emphasizes practical steps for parenting, co-parenting, and merging households in blended family situations. Sessions cover common issues like loyalty conflicts, divided routines, and negotiating caregiving roles.
He prefers an open, collaborative process to find what helps most. If you want to explore how therapy might fit your blended household, follow the site prompts to review online therapy options and schedule an initial session.
Approaches used in online sessions and what they do
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without being ruled by them and then commit to actions that reflect their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and major life changes by focusing on practical steps and values-based goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and replacing them with clearer, more effective habits. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns, and coping skills for everyday stress.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how emotions shape interactions and relationships. It helps people understand emotional responses and improve communication and connection in close relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit best based on symptoms, goals, and personal preferences. That might mean using one approach more at first, then adding others as needs change.
Confirm the session formats on the site before booking since the profile did not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - they reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and let people join from different locations. Discuss practical arrangements with the therapist when you schedule to pick a session pattern that fits your daily routine.
