About Matthew
Matthew Green is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. He works with people facing grief, low self-esteem, stress and anxiety, and relationship concerns. He also lists additional focus areas such as ageing and geriatric issues, communication problems, guilt and shame, hospice and end-of-life counselling, isolation and loneliness, life purpose and young adult issues.
Matthew has spent recent years working with young people in educational settings. Before that he supported adults dealing with bereavement and loss. That background shapes how he responds to someone who comes with grief or complex end-of-life feelings.
In sessions he follows a client-centred approach. That means he listens for the person’s priorities and helps them talk through what matters to them. He looks for each person’s existing strengths and uses those to tackle low confidence and persistent self-doubt.
People meeting him often bring practical problems and strong emotions. He aims to make space for clear, direct conversation about what is getting in the way. That can include naming feelings like shame or guilt, and working on communication skills that affect relationships.
For those wondering about life purpose after a big change, Matthew focuses on the concrete next steps a person can try. He helps with planning small, manageable actions and thinking through options rather than offering quick fixes.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. He uses a subscription model for sessions, which can be cancelled at any time.
How client-centred work translates to online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to the person's priorities. The counsellor reflects what is said, checks understanding, and supports the person to steer the conversation towards topics that matter to them. This approach is often used for grief, self-esteem and relationship concerns because it centres the person's experience and choices.Because the right approach can take a few sessions to find, Matthew treats figuring this out as a collaborative process. He will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and adjust how he works in response to feedback. The person and counsellor decide together which methods fit best for the issue at hand.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. When session formats are unspecified in the biography, confirm current options before booking so you know how meetings will be held. Many people find that online sessions make it easier to maintain regular contact while balancing work, education or caregiving responsibilities.
