About Matthew

Matthew Green works on grief, low self-esteem, stress, anxiety and relationship concerns using a client-centred approach. He is a member of the BACP and has five years' experience working with people in the United Kingdom.

Matthew's way of working puts the person and their experience at the centre. He listens without directing the story and helps people make sense of loss, guilt and shame at a steady, manageable pace. Sessions focus on what matters to the individual and on practical steps they can use between meetings.

He has spent the last five years supporting young people in educational settings. Before that, Matthew worked with adults around bereavement and end-of-life matters, including hospice and hospice-related counselling. That background informs his approach to grief and to conversations about life purpose and ageing.

In appointments he pays attention to communication patterns and feelings that keep people stuck. He helps people who feel isolated or lonely to name those experiences and find ways to reconnect. He also provides support for people who want to build confidence and improve how they relate to others.

Sessions are straightforward and conversational. Matthew helps people set small goals and reviews progress together. To begin, readers should use the site matching process to arrange a first session and confirm practical details.

How client-centred work translates to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens without directing the story, reflects what is said and follows the client's pace. This approach helps with grief, low self-esteem, anxiety and relationship concerns by giving space for feelings to be named and reflected back.

Matthew's approach is conversational and collaborative. He will work with each person to decide how best to use sessions, checking in about goals and preferences as the work progresses. Finding the right approach is part of the process and he will help people choose what feels most helpful for them.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so readers should confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around everyday life and commitments. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during busy days and make it possible to attend from a quieter location when that's needed. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors who practise client-centred methods, commonly use online sessions to increase convenience while keeping the focus on the person's concerns and progress.
