About Matthew
Matthew "Matt" Redfearn meets people where they are and focuses on what matters to them. He speaks plainly and listens closely to understand the problems a person brings. He helps with stress, anxiety, low mood and changes that have become hard to handle.
Matt draws on three years of professional experience and holds an NCPS credential. Matt works in a straightforward way. Sessions start by looking at what the person wants to change and what already helps them cope.
Background and approach
He offers short-term practical tools alongside space to talk about feelings and experiences. This can include looking at thoughts and behaviours, or finding small steps that move a person toward clearer goals. His approach treats the client as the expert in their own life.
Matt uses Client-Centred methods to follow what the person brings to the room and build on their strengths. He also uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to notice unhelpful thinking patterns and from Solution-Focused Therapy to identify achievable next steps. Matt practises with people in the United Kingdom and accepts international clients in English.
He offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different needs and schedules. Costs vary with location and sessions form part of a cancellable subscription. To begin, a person selects Start Therapy, completes a short matching questionnaire and books a slot according to the therapist's availability.
Matt aims to create a calm, practical space where people can try new ways of coping and move towards clearer, more manageable days.

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
He also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to spot patterns in thoughts and behaviours that keep difficulties going. CBT offers practical exercises and small experiments to test different ways of thinking and acting, which can help with anxiety, low mood and stress.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Matt will discuss options and agree a plan together, tailoring techniques to the person’s needs, goals and preferences in a collaborative way.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls suit fuller conversations and visual connection. Phone sessions can fit a short break at work or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing reflections or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around daily life and to keep up regular sessions.
