Therapeutic Approaches and Flexible Online Care

Matthew often integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside practical cognitive strategies. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and develop psychological flexibility - it is useful for anxiety, stress, and difficulties where avoidance gets in the way of valued living. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relational patterns formed in earlier relationships and helps people understand and reshape how they connect with others, which can be especially helpful for relationship struggles, abandonment concerns, and attachment issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers structured ways to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which can reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, panic, and obsessive-compulsive difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process; Matthew works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and he adapts techniques over time as therapy progresses.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, reduces travel barriers, and allows consistent access to therapy from different locations. These options support continuity of care and flexibility, enabling people to engage in therapy in ways that suit their schedules and communication styles while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
