Shauntay Matthews

If you're looking for a therapist who truly gets the ups, downs, and real work of maintaining relationships and raising a family, meet Shauntay Matthews. A devoted wife of 20 years and mother of three, Shauntay brings more than academic training to the counseling room—she brings the lived experience of a woman who has navigated marriage, motherhood, healing, and personal transformation firsthand. After witnessing the impact her husband, renowned marriage counselor Chris A. Matthews, made in the lives of countless couples over the past decade, Shauntay felt a clear calling to step into her own role as a healer. Currently completing her master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, she now works directly with couples, families, and women—offering an approach that’s both deeply empathetic and refreshingly honest. Shauntay specializes in helping couples who feel disconnected, unheard, or overwhelmed by the demands of life and parenting. Whether you're facing recurring arguments, intimacy issues, family tension, or emotional burnout, Shauntay provides a safe and affirming space to rediscover connection and rebuild trust. Drawing from the powerful legacy of Virginia Satir’s transformational techniques, she helps clients break through communication blocks, boost self-worth, and create stronger emotional bonds at home. In her work with women, Shauntay is especially attuned to the emotional weight that so many carry—postpartum stress, anxiety, depression, identity shifts, and the quiet battles that come with showing up for everyone but yourself. Her sessions offer a chance to pause, reflect, and finally feel seen. What makes Shauntay stand out? Her presence. Clients often say they feel like they’re talking to someone who understands them without judgment, and gently guides them toward real change. She’s not just learning from textbooks—she’s walking the walk right alongside you. Now accepting new clients at a reduced rate while completing her clinical hours, Shauntay invites you to experience a different kind of therapy—one that feels genuine, grounded, and focused on helping you thrive in your most important relationships.
