Matt Thomas
Person-centred/humanistic counsellorAbout Me
Sometimes we need someone to talk to who is not a friend or family member to help us understand things. Therapy can be like tidying a cupboard that has become a mess. We'll take everything out, sort it out and put it back in, in better order.
I am always non-judgmental and will be in your corner, seeing things from your perspective as far as possible.
I am particularly interested in working with issues related to alcohol and substance misuse, LGBTQ, discrimination and race. I also have specialist training in working with young people (aged 13+).
I have wide experience working with low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, work related stress and family issues. Other problems I have successfully worked with include self-harm and suicidal thoughts, domestic violence, trauma and disordered eating.
I offer an initial online consultation (usually about 20 minutes) at no charge via Google Meets to give you a chance to ask any questions you may, and to allow us to get to know eachother a little.
