Matt Beale-Collins

I currently have limited daytime availability for individuals and couples in London Bridge, SE1, and Peckham, SE15.

Hello, I’m Matt. I am a psychotherapeutic counsellor, with a background in supporting adults and young people through physical and psychological challenges. I have worked as a mentor with young adults excluded from mainstream education, and as a grief companion attached to a hospice.

I work relationally, which means I place great emphasis on the value in building our relationship, as well as the way that other relationships function in your life. We work in the here and now, with some attention to how your past might be impacting you currently.

I am trained in transpersonal psychology, which means my approach to therapy is holistic. Living is an embodied experience, it is mind and body and I work with the whole being. I believe that we have an innate desire to go beyond known limitations.

I am a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and follow the Ethical Framework of the BACP that protects both clients and therapists.

What might lead you to therapy?

I think that being human can be a mysterious and unsettling business, and that most of us can benefit from personal therapy at some point. There are times when your voice needs to be heard in a safe and supportive place.

You may be experiencing a particularly tough period in your life, where relationships are unsatisfying and you feel unloved, with a sense of pain and isolation and a longing for more. You may feel a deep grief or sense of loss, without a clear idea about its origin. In our work together, I will offer you a committed and non-judgmental relationship, a safe space for us to explore your story from a deeper place, and an opportunity to reflect on your life's meaning, beyond everyday identities. Creating and maintaining fulfilling and loving relationships is something we all aspire to, but this is never easy. Some of your fears and anxieties may also be related to our very fragile existence as humans on planet earth in these challenging times.

Some memories can be felt deeply in our bodies, and at times I might suggest using ‘Focusing,’ body memory work, for you to explore some of the most stuck and difficult areas.

I currently have limited availability for daytime individual and couple face to face sessions in Peckham, SE15 and London Bridge, SE1. Also online and walking and talking.

I work relationally, which means that I really value relationships and like to help them function effectively. Our work together will help me tune to your relational needs.

You may feel a deep grief or sense of loss, without a clear idea about its origin. In our work together, I would offer you a committed, non-judgmental relationship, a safe space for us to explore your story from a deeper place, and an opportunity to reflect on meaning, beyond everyday identities. We will look at patterns from the past and see how these affect your daily life.

I trained in psychosynthesis, a transpersonal  psychology. The approach promotes greater self-understanding, with a belief that we all have an inherent desire for growth. It is a useful approach in relation to issues around self-worth. In our sessions, we will explore your sense of self, beyond your day to day personal identity. I work with both individuals and couples.

Our first contact will be via email. If I am able to find you a space, and you wish to continue, I will email you a questionnaire to complete and return before we meet. Our first session will be spent discussing your answers and broadly agreeing the scope of our work together. This will also allow us to begin to get to know each other.

I have some daytime availability for individuals and couples, in-person, at London Bridge, SE1, and Peckham, SE15. Also online and walking and talking.

Our work together will look at patterns that have developed over your life and how they manifest currently. Sometimes, we carry shame for those parts of ourselves that we find unacceptable.

Some life experiences and memories can sit deeply in our bodies, and at times I might suggest using 'Focusing,' body memory work, for us to explore some of the more stuck and difficult areas.

Our initial contact is via email. If I can find you a space, and you wish to go ahead, I will email you a questionnaire to complete and return before we meet. The first session is a time for you to ask any questions and for us to discuss your needs and expectations. It’s also a time for us to start to get to know each other and decide how we might work together.

I will usually respond to all inquiries within 24 hours.

I currently have some daytime availability for individuals on weekdays for walking and talking sessions, in Dulwich Park and Sydenham Woods. I can also offer daytime face to face sessions for individuals and couples in London Bridge, SE1, and Peckham, SE15.

I believe in the power of working in nature, and although London parks are not deep countryside, they still offer some sense of the natural world that we are all part of. Walking and talking in nature is also sometimes easier than sitting in a room with a therapist. 

I work relationally, which means I place great emphasis on the value in building our relationship, as well as the effectiveness and function of the other relationships in your life. We work in the here and now, and consider how your past life might be impacting you currently.
