Whether it's about breaking negative patterns, processing trauma, mourning, or a problem with attraction to unfulfilling relationships, the gently routined, contained process of unpacking our luggage in therapy and exploring our inner worlds can be a healing and creatively enriching process. ​ The specific reasons why we seek therapy are as unique as we are, but the underlying drivers are shared by all of us. All of us were born to someone, and we all try to find our way in life to differing degrees of difficulty. In this sense, we find ourselves in distress because we are human and suffer from the human condition.

Sometimes feelings of being lost, angry, sad and fearful may appear without reason. Sometimes we know exactly where it's coming from. You may be seeking something, some awareness, meaning or acceptance. You could feel stuck in patterns, unable to move through them or understand where they may be coming from. Maybe it's time to tend to those parts of you that are hurting from what you've been through. To heal, we need to be seen, heard and understood in an environment that we can feel safe in. Together, we can create that and explore and process through those current and past issues.

My primary therapeutic grounding is in Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), an approach to change that’s solution focused, practical and geared towards achieving goals specific to your life circumstances and challenges you feel are holding you back. Over the years, I've done extensive professional training so I tailor my approach to each unique individual. My ideal client is curious, open to discussing and exploring ideas and keen to pursue lasting personal transformation. This a real challenge which takes great courage. Successful therapy requires some degree of trust in the process and collaborative therapeutic alliance.

Are you anxious about your relationship?  It can be very daunting and even feel shameful or disloyal to approach a therapist about personal problems in your relationship or the fact that you aren't in one or find it hard to sustain one.  We seek help for other concerns why not with relationship problems?  Therapists, like carpenters have tools to offer that can help you make repairs. Speaking about your concerns aloud with an experienced and empathetic listener can disempower the anxiety so the work of recovery can begin.  I have enjoyed working in the NHS and privately over many years on relationship and sexual problems.

We'll apply personalised, evidence-based interventions to place the problem into remission. You'll be taught how to stay in recovery, keeping you well for longer and giving you back much deserved power in your life.

Quite simply, in therapy I aim to offer a calm and confidential space to gently explore any challenges you might currently be facing, or any difficult patterns that you might have noticed throughout your life. My training is in integrative counselling and psychotherapy which allows me to draw on a range of approaches and build a therapy best suited for you. The right counsellor or therapist for you will likely be the one you feel best able to build a relationship with, the one you feel most comfortable working with.

We're often led to believe that we’re lucky to live in today's world, with all its modern comforts and opportunities, and that we should therefore not only be grateful but also feel happy and fulfilled. In reality, modern life can still be hard and overwhelming and comes with its very own challenges. Therapy can help. There are many reasons why people seek out therapy. You might know exactly what it is you would like to work on, or you might feel lost, unsure where to start. Whatever it is that brings you here, I would love to work together with you to explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences and help you find a way forward.

Hello! My name is Matt. I work with clients who are looking to make a change. That might be change from how you think about yourself, your relationships, your professional life, or something else. I want you to feel like change is possible. To believe that within yourself is everything you might need to find a new way of feeling or being. You just need a little help getting there. That's why I specialise in anxiety, depression, low-mood, intrusive thoughts, trauma and eating disorders. These are all things that can, with help and support, begin to lose their intensity and hold over who you think you are.

Life disturbances can silence us; silence us into disbelief, fear, isolation and suffering. You need not suffer alone in silence. My experience upholding clients with various personal and professional challenges has enabled them to live healthier, more balanced, authentic lives that meet their need. I have uplifted clients troubled with identity and confidence issues. I have supported clients tormented from abuse, grief and trauma. I have helped clients struggling with depression, anxiety and stress. I have facilitated workshops to encourage self-discovery and self-transformation. I volunteered in primary schools with Place2Be

A warm welcome. Having studied Creative Health and Performance Psychology (2022), I understand issues faced by performance artists. I was a member of the Donmar Theatre Local Company (2020-21) and welcome approaches from people who work in theatre and the arts. As a former barrister I understand the pressures of working in the legal profession and financial services industries. Finally, I was once CEO of a national charity, so managers in the voluntary sector may feel I’ll have an affinity with them too but whoever you are, you’ll get a warm welcome from me. I am fully aware that starting therapy can feel very daunting.
