Welcome - I'm Dr. Matthew Diner

I’m a licensed clinical social worker and psychotherapist providing secure virtual therapy for adults across Florida, Michigan, New Mexico, New York, and Texas. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and other emotional challenges.

My approach is grounded in advanced training in psychodynamic therapy and integrates evidence-based methods with a collaborative, active style. Treatment is always tailored to your goals and personal experience. I also bring years of experience working with children and families, which informs a thoughtful, developmentally informed perspective in my work with adults.

In addition to psychotherapy, I provide mental health evaluations for immigration cases. As a bilingual (English/Spanish) evaluator, I conduct clinical assessments for Asylum, Cancellation of Removal, Extreme Hardship, T-Visa, U-Visa, and VAWA petitions, offering clear, compassionate documentation to support legal proceedings.

At the core of my practice is a commitment to building a genuine, respectful therapeutic relationship. My goal is to create a supportive space where you can gain insight, develop resilience, and move forward with clarity and confidence.

If you’re ready to take the next step, I invite you to reach out.
