About Charles "Matt" Cox

Charles "Matt" Cox is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) and a Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist practicing in North Carolina. He brings 11 years of experience helping people who face a wide range of concerns, with particular experience supporting those who have co-occurring mental health and substance use conditions. His work commonly addresses depression, anxiety, trauma and adjustment difficulties, as well as substance use disorders and related challenges.

He favors a client-centered style that places the individual and their goals at the center of the therapeutic process. In session he also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to help clients examine patterns of thought and behavior, build practical coping skills, and find motivation for change. Because each person presents differently, he tailors interventions to fit individual needs and life circumstances rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method.

Charles approaches treatment as a collaborative effort, partnering with people to identify priorities and work toward meaningful change. He has experience with a broad set of concerns including relationship and family issues, grief and loss, parenting and fatherhood matters, ADHD, anger, and issues related to sexuality and identity. He aims to create a respectful, goal-focused process that supports clients in making progress on the matters that matter most to them.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Charles "Matt" Cox uses approaches that translate well to online formats and focus on practical change and client collaboration. Client-Centered Therapy centers on the client's own goals and experiences, creating space for individuals to explore values, relationships, and life transitions while the therapist offers empathy and support. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify and shift unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and to build coping skills for everyday challenges. Motivational Interviewing is a conversational approach designed to strengthen a person’s own motivation for change, often used when addressing substance use, ambivalence about behavior change, or readiness for new goals.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Charles works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, test strategies, and adjust methods as goals evolve so that the care fits the individual’s preferences and circumstances.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and format. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from home or work and to continue care through life transitions, while allowing sessions to be shaped around the client’s routine and comfort.
