About Evan
Evan Matheney is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) who focuses on family and parenting concerns. He draws on seven years of experience supporting children, adolescents, and their caregivers. Evan aims to make meetings feel straightforward and practical for worried parents.
He keeps language simple and centers relationships in the work. Early in his career he worked on a home-based therapy team using Parent-Child Interaction Therapy, helping caregivers build better routines and stronger connections with young children.
Background and approach
He then trained in Child-Parent Psychotherapy, a trauma-informed approach that helps parents and children heal together after stressful events. These early roles also included crisis response and intensive home-based supports. As his practice grew, Evan supervised clinicians and managed programs focused on maternal mental health within a public health setting.
He now runs a counseling and consulting practice that includes therapy, professional trainings, and business development consulting. His background combines direct clinical work with program leadership and supervision. In sessions he uses techniques from attachment-based work, client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, existential approaches, and elements of the Gottman Method when relationships are involved.
He adapts methods to each family's needs and focuses on concrete skills parents can try between sessions. The approach is collaborative and focused on improving day-to-day family life. Evan works in Ohio and holds the OH LPCC license E.1901200-SUPV.
Sessions are conducted in English and tailored to the practical concerns of families navigating stress, anxiety, parenting, and mood issues.
How Evan’s Approaches Work Online
Attachment-based work looks at how relationships shape behavior and emotion. Online sessions focus on strengthening caregiver-child bonds, improving responses to stress, and building trust between family members. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and replaces them with practical actions. In virtual sessions CBT is used to set small goals and practice strategies between meetings. The Gottman Method brings specific tools for handling conflict and improving communication in close relationships, and it can be adapted to parents who want clearer ways to co-parent or manage household stress.Evan treats finding the right approach as a team effort. He will talk with parents about goals, try different methods, and adjust based on what feels most helpful. The plan evolves from each family's needs, preferences, and what works in real life rather than a one-size-fits-all protocol.
Online therapy with Evan uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible support. These options allow parents to fit sessions into busy schedules and to check in between appointments. The variety of formats makes it easier to practice new skills at home and keep progress steady even when life is hectic.
Attachment-Based Therapy
Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
