There are many reasons to look for a therapist, ranging from a crisis now to a general feeling of unhappiness, stemming from your past. Life throws up many events and difficulties and we aren't always able to solve these on our own. Anxieties, stress, feeling sad, isolation, as well as relationships, families, parenting, marriage, divorce, addictions, bereavement and loss are issues that we will all face at some point in our lives. They can leave us feeling confused and lost and without anyone to help us make sense of it. Therapy is safe, secure & non judgemental providing understanding, insight leading to change for you.

Sharing what's on your mind brings clarity when there is confusion and worry.

I specialise in working with relationships, helping you as a couple to communicate your needs better to each other, have a greater emotional and sexual connection, and helping you to navigate through life's challenges that can impact the quality of your relationship and ultimately your happiness.

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.

It is likely that you are reading these lines because you are looking for support in getting through a crisis or you wish to explore some long-standing issues with a kind and caring professional. Perhaps you're struggling with problems in your relationship, professional life or trying to overcome destructive habits. You might be feeling stuck and need help to make sense of what's going on.

I am most often consulted by people who have anxiety or depression. Modern life can be stressful and many people seek my help with stress and stress-related health conditions. I am frequently consulted for help with relationship problems. In recent years I have seen an increase in the number of people who are seeking help with alcohol, food and eating disorders. Many people come because their life is not working the way they want it to, and they feel stuck and unable to move forward.

I have trained in existential psychotherapy, and I apply this in my work with clients. The starting point is the experience of the client, to provide the opportunity for them to examine their understanding of life, and the problems and dilemmas they face; to reassess their goals and desires. It provides an opportunity to consider how their choices have been constrained, perhaps by the views and expectations of others, but also by constraints rooted in our society. Understanding can lead to questioning, and growth, possibly in new directions.

There are times in our life when we can feel sad, anxious, overwhelmed or unfufilled. Therapy can provide support through challenging times, or a space for exploration of patterns that cause us to feel stuck and unhappy. I offer a warm, open and non judgemental space where we can explore your unique needs together at your own pace.
