Matsudaira Shigekatsu (松平 重勝, 1549 – January 6, 1620) was a Japanese daimyō of the early Edo period. Also known as Denzaburō (伝三郎). Inherited headship of the Nomi-Matsudaira (能見松平) from his father, Matsudaira Shigeyoshi.

Following the dissolution of Tadateru's domain, Shigekatsu was made daimyō of the Sekiyado Domain in Shimōsa Province. Soon afterward, in 1619, he was transferred to the Yokosuka Domain, in Tōtōmi Province, rated at 26,000 koku. At this time, he also served as warden of Ieyasu's castle at Sunpu.
