Do you often feel disconnected—from yourself, from others, or from the life you want to be living? Are your own needs always pushed to the bottom of the list? You might be wondering if life is supposed to feel… better. Happier. More manageable.

Right now, many people are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and uncertain—juggling relationships, careers, and responsibilities while barely finding time to breathe. When we ignore our needs for too long, it can take a real toll—mentally, emotionally, and physically.

I believe it shouldn’t be so hard to live a more fulfilling life. Therapy can help you reconnect with yourself, understand what’s really going on underneath the surface, and start making meaningful changes that feel true to who you are.

I offer a supportive, person-centred approach that puts you at the core of the work we do together. Whether you’re facing a specific challenge or simply feeling stuck, I’ll walk alongside you as you explore new ways of living and relating to the world around you.

Sessions are available online, over the telephone or Messenger Type Therapy, offering flexibility and comfort wherever you are.

If you’re ready to take that first step towards a better life, I’m here when you’re ready.

As a male therapist, I bring a unique dynamic to the therapeutic relationship—one grounded in genuine empathy, sincerity, and respect. My approach is person-centred, which means I place you at the heart of our work together. I offer a safe, non-judgemental space where you can feel truly heard and supported as you begin to take back control of your life.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with people from all walks of life, facing a wide range of challenges. These include domestic abuse, addiction (both drug and alcohol), bereavement, and gender-specific health concerns. I also support individuals dealing with anxiety, stress, and depression at varying levels.

What matters most to me is meeting you where you are. I tailor my approach to suit your unique needs, starting with understanding your present situation and the difficulties you’re facing. From there, we’ll work together to explore how you can begin to move forward—and I’ll be with you every step of the way, celebrating progress as it comes.

In addition to traditional therapy, I also offer Messenger-Based Therapy for those who prefer written communication over video or phone sessions. If this feels like a better fit for you, I’d be happy to tell you more.

My aim is to help you live a more fulfilling life—whether that means working through grief, navigating a major life transition, setting healthy boundaries, or breaking free from unhelpful patterns. Whatever you’re facing, I’m here to support you in creating the life you want.

Let’s begin your journey—reach out today to take the first step.

Our first session together will last 50 minutes and serves as a gentle introduction to the therapeutic process. It’s a space where we can begin to get to know one another, talk about what’s bringing you to therapy, and explore what you’d like to get out of our work together.

We’ll look at what’s going on for you right now, what you’d like to explore in more depth, and what kind of support feels most helpful to you. This initial conversation helps lay the foundation for a relationship built on trust, understanding, and collaboration.

All sessions are held online, using a secure video platform. A link will be sent directly to your email before each appointment, making it easy and convenient for you to join from wherever you feel most comfortable. I also offer telephone therapy and Messenger-Based Therapy

My name is Matthew. I am a dedicated Person-Centred Counsellor and Psychotherapist with a commitment to assisting individuals in navigating the complexities of their emotional and psychological landscapes. My services are available both online and in-person, including a distinctive "walk and talk" option that integrates the therapeutic benefits of nature with foundational counselling principles.

My approach is grounded in empathy, compassion, and a non-judgemental perspective. I believe strongly in the importance of every individual being heard, validated, and recognised for their true self. In my practice, I prioritise working at your pace, ensuring that you feel comfortable and supported throughout our sessions. This tailored approach facilitates a more meaningful and effective therapeutic experience.

I have the privilege of working with a diverse range of clients addressing numerous issues. This extensive experience has afforded me a profound understanding of the unique challenges and strengths each individual possesses. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, bereavement, or any other life challenges, I am here to provide a safe, nurturing space for exploration and growth.

My professional journey has equipped me with valuable insights and skills, enabling me to connect with clients on a deeper level. I am committed to ongoing professional development, ensuring that I offer the most effective and current therapeutic interventions to support your well-being.

Our therapeutic relationship will be characterised by respect, understanding, and unconditional positive regard. I am here to listen without judgement, understand without bias, and support without condition.

Together, we can explore your feelings, thoughts, and experiences, allowing you to gain clarity, develop strategies for managing life's challenges, and achieve a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Let us embark on this journey together, one step at a time, at your pace.

I also offer a Nature Therapy Experience, on the scenic Isle of Bute - which is easily accessible by ferry from the mainland. This can be either by the hour as a "Walk & Talk" session, or a longer Nature Therapy Excursion.

Our first session together will last 50 minutes and serves as a gentle introduction to the therapeutic process. It’s a space where we can begin to get to know one another, talk about what’s bringing you to therapy, and explore what you’d like to get out of our work together.
