About Charles
Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 11 years of experience, Charles "Matt" Cox helps people with stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, trauma and related concerns. He works with issues such as grief, parenting strain, intimacy difficulties, anger, self-esteem, career changes, and ADHD. Sessions are delivered in English and he does not take international clients.
Matt uses a client-centered stance to guide conversations. That means he prioritizes the person's goals and preferences while offering practical tools. He commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking patterns that affect mood and behavior. He also uses Motivational Interviewing when exploring change around substance use or other habits.
In practice he combines listening with concrete steps. Clients can expect to talk about current challenges and try small experiments between sessions. He pays attention to co-occurring issues such as mood disorders, trauma history, and substance use so treatment addresses more than one concern at a time.
His background includes work with people affected by addiction, veteran and armed forces issues, fatherhood and men’s concerns, traumatic brain injury, and mood or personality difficulties. That experience informs a straightforward approach to problem solving and relapse prevention.
To begin, people complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Matt uses a subscription-based payment model that can be canceled at any time, and session cost varies with location.

How his methods translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s priorities and experience. In online sessions that looks like the therapist asking about goals and adjusting the pace and focus to what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot and change thought and behavior patterns that feed anxiety or depression; online work can include talking through examples and assigning short practice exercises between meetings. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative style for exploring readiness to change, commonly used for substance use or habit change; online conversations use open questions and reflective listening to help people weigh options.Deciding which approach to use is part of the early work. The therapist will review needs, goals, and preferences and suggest a mix of methods. That choice is revisited as progress is made so the plan stays aligned with the person’s priorities.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example shorter check-ins during a work break or avoiding travel time. They also let people work with licensed professionals without needing to travel to an office.
