About

Hi! My name is Matt Cerne and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Massachusetts. My background includes 25 years of experience working with people of all ages and genders, in the traditional outpatient setting as well as inpatient psychiatry and addictions medicine. My approach is non judgmental, kind and person centered. I primarily use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and motivational interviewing as treatment approaches but tailor care to the specific needs of my clients. Asking for help and being vulnerable takes courage and I look forward to the opportunity to work with you. In addition to my work in mental health, I've worked as a financial analyst.
