Matthew Carroll, NCPS
Matthew Carroll is a counsellor who helps people facing depression, stress and anxiety.
About Matthew
Matthew Carroll is a counsellor who helps people facing depression, stress and anxiety. He works with adults who are navigating relationship worries, grief, trauma, sleep or eating difficulties, and issues like low self-esteem or feeling isolated. Matthew describes himself as respectful and compassionate, and aims to move at each person’s pace.
He uses a blend of approaches rather than one fixed method. Sessions are shaped around what the person brings each week.
Background and approach
That can mean talking through thoughts and behaviours, reflecting on past patterns, or simply making space to be heard. Matthew adapts his style to suit individual needs and the rhythm of the work. Matthew has six years of counselling experience and holds the NCPS credential.
He practises from the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English to people in other countries as well. His background includes supporting people with ADHD, LGBT concerns, intimacy-related issues, anger, and young adult challenges. In a typical session he aims for clear, practical conversation alongside deeper reflection when it helps.
Some weeks focus on immediate coping strategies, while other times the work looks at longer-term patterns. He encourages clients to set goals and to review progress as therapy continues. Starting therapy can feel hard, so Matthew helps people take small steps.
He will tailor a plan jointly and adjust it as needs change. The aim is to help people feel steadier and more able to cope with life changes over time.

Approaches Matthew lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Matthew works collaboratively to identify which methods suit the person’s goals and preferences. Sessions can start with simpler practical techniques and then shift to deeper reflection if that feels useful, with choices reviewed together as therapy progresses.
Online therapy makes these approaches more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation across distances, phone sessions use less bandwidth when needed, live chat is good for shorter check-ins, and text messaging lets people write through thoughts between sessions. This range of formats helps people fit therapy around work, study and daily life while keeping the focus on progress and practical change.
