About Mathew
Mathew Roderick is a counsellor who uses straightforward talking therapy to help people manage depression and related concerns. He draws on several therapeutic approaches and aims to make the first steps into therapy less daunting. He works in the United Kingdom and communicates in English.
Mathew has six years of professional experience and holds BACP registration. He supports people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and motivation problems alongside depression. He also helps with eating and food-related issues, addictions, grief and trauma-related concerns.
Background and approach
In sessions he encourages open conversation so clients can say what they think and feel without judgement. He adapts the style of work to the person in front of him, using practical techniques when helpful and deeper exploration when needed. Common topics include sleep difficulties, relationship and intimacy concerns, and obsessive or compulsive thoughts.
Mathew also offers coaching-style support for career and money worries, and guidance around parenting strains. He can address issues linked to body image, avoidant personality patterns and men’s health topics. His work includes support for people affected by sexual assault, post-traumatic stress and self-harm thoughts.
People can expect a calm, conversational pace in sessions. Mathew invites questions and shared planning about goals and next steps. If the approach feels right, he encourages taking small practical steps between meetings to build change over time.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the process and Mathew treats it as a joint decision. He listens to a person's goals and preferences, explains different ways of working, and agrees a plan together. That means techniques can be practical and short term or more exploratory depending on what the client wants.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for a full discussion and visual cues, phone sessions suit people who prefer not to be on camera or have limited bandwidth, live chat lets someone check in quickly, and messaging supports short updates or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options let people fit therapy around work, family life and travel.
