Matthew Smith
Therapist | Counselling & Psychotherapy
Choosing a therapist is a personal decision, and it’s important to find someone you feel comfortable with. I offer counselling and psychotherapy for adults, providing a calm, thoughtful space where you can talk openly and explore what’s going on for you.
My work is shaped by a humanistic approach and by careful attention to each individual’s experience. I aim to work at a pace that feels right for you, supporting reflection, emotional understanding, and meaningful change over time.
About me
I am a therapist offering individual counselling and psychotherapy for adults. I work with people who may be experiencing anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, loss, or periods of feeling stuck or disconnected from themselves.
My work is informed by a humanistic perspective and shaped by careful attention to each person’s unique experience. I aim to provide a steady, thoughtful space where clients can explore what is going on for them at their own pace.
My approach
My approach is collaborative and responsive, guided by what you bring and what feels most important in the moment. Sessions may involve talking and being listened to carefully, as well as gently exploring emotional and relational patterns as they emerge.
I work in a way that values depth, reflection, and emotional safety, supporting clients to develop greater understanding of themselves and their experiences. Therapy is not about giving advice, but about creating the conditions for insight, change, and growth to unfold over time.
