Matthew Gould

Hi my name is Matthew. I’m a therapist working in Twickenham and Richmond and in central London. I aim to provide a safe, gentle space to talk, free of any judgement. If we agree to work together, I can modify and tailor therapy according to your wishes and needs, taking into account your expectations and requests. My focus is on collaboration towards a goal. 

In terms of style, you may wish to have a safe space to explore issues and reflect on patterns, discovering new, more functional ways of relating to your past or present, or you may request practical tools to help you manage mood now and in the future. 

My work is confidential, supervised regularly and I continue to keep informed of new developments and research within the field of mental health. My training is both psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioural. I work for the NHS as a counsellor on a part-time basis. 

I currently work part-time in private practice. I also work for the NHS in an IAPT mental health service. I am a registered member of the BACP - a professional body regulating therapy in the UK. I abide by their ethical framework and undertake frequent CPD and regular supervision to make sure my work is informed and clinically safe.

The first session is for us to get to know one another and decide if we can work together. I can advise if the problem you're presenting is something I can help with or if another person would be best suited. The most important thing is that the sessions are tailored to you and that you feel we can work together.

Hi my name is Matthew. Thank you for reading my profile. I hope I can help resolve whatever is troubling you. I provide a safe, gentle space to talk, with no judgement.

It can be hard finding the right therapist, but it can be rewarding and life-changing.

The first session is for us to get to know one another and and for me to understand your hopes and expectations for therapy. It’s also a chance for me to answer any questions you may have. After the session, if you decide that you would like us to work together, we can then make arrangements for our future work.

Hi my name is Matthew. I hope I can help resolve what is troubling you. My style is warm and free of judgement. I can either give you the space to talk, or if you would rather not revisit painful memories, or require advice and techniques, there is plenty of useful work we can do. I am experienced working with anxiety, generalised anxiety, depression, shyness and social phobia, relationships, loss, abuse, betrayal, self-esteem, anger, or if you are simply stuck, or lacking motivation. Healing comes about through insight, understanding and acceptance but also change: if you want something more active and future focused, then I can also offer qualified advice, therapeutic exercises and activities supported by the evidence base.

You may wish to have a safe space to explore issues and reflect on patterns, discovering new, more functional ways of relating to your past or present, or you may request practical tools to help you manage mood now and in the future. My techniques are informed by the current evidence base and my years working inside and outside the care industry give me an understanding of the complexities of working and family life.

I can meet face to face, by phone or online if preferred.

My work is confidential, supervised regularly and I continue to keep informed of new developments and research within the field of mental health.

In the first session we can meet and see if we can work together, based on how you feel. There is no pressure to sign up to further sessions and you are welcome to have just one session. 

During the session I will seek to understand your story and where you are now and to gain insights on where you would like to be.
