About Matthew

Matthew Carroll is a counsellor who focuses on men’s wellbeing and related concerns. He offers a calm, respectful approach and aims to match the pace of each person he meets. He works with everyday problems such as stress and anxiety, and with issues that can affect relationships and self-worth.

Matthew uses a flexible style and adapts sessions to what comes up in conversation. He listens without judgement and helps people think through practical steps they can try between meetings. The aim is to build clearer routines, better sleep, and steadier coping when life feels overwhelming.

He combines different ways of working to suit each person’s needs. Cognitive behavioural ideas are used to spot patterns that keep problems going. Client-centred principles make space for the person’s own priorities and pace. Psychodynamic ideas help look at past experiences that continue to influence feelings and choices.

Matthew has six years of experience in counselling practice across the United Kingdom and holds the NCPS credential. He supports people with a range of concerns including ADHD, trauma, grief, eating and intimacy-related issues. He also focuses on isolation and social anxiety and on issues commonly encountered by young adults.

Starting is straightforward: use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to availability. International clients are welcome and sessions are provided in English.

How Matthew's approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead. It is about creating space to talk, accepting what someone brings, and helping them find their own solutions over time.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behaviour that keep problems happening. It offers clear strategies and experiments to try between sessions, which can help with anxiety, sleep, eating and daily routines.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Matthew will discuss goals and preferences and decide together which methods to use. That collaborative process means the plan can shift as needs change.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, whether that means shorter travel time or fitting appointments around work or study. It also allows people who live outside the therapist's local area to connect, but you should confirm which session options are currently offered before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt tools and homework to work well in remote sessions, helping people practise new skills between meetings and stay on track with their goals.
