About Matthew
Matthew Carroll is an Accredited Integrative Counsellor (NCPS) in the United Kingdom with six years of practice. He works with adults who want to manage anger, stress, anxiety and related problems. Sessions often focus on practical ways to reduce outbursts and handle frustrations that build up over time.
He uses a mix of client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural tools and psychodynamic ideas. That means he listens to what matters to the person, looks at thought patterns that make anger worse, and considers how past experiences shape current reactions. He aims to help people notice triggers and try different ways of responding.
In a typical session he will invite straightforward talk about what led to the moment of anger. He helps people test simple techniques in everyday life and then reflect on what worked. Sessions move at the client’s pace and focus on what feels useful now rather than on jargon or theory.
Matthew also works with related concerns such as sleep, eating, grief, intimacy issues and relationship strain. He supports people dealing with ADHD, social anxiety, isolation and men’s issues when these link to anger or stress. International clients may be accepted and sessions are offered in English.

Therapy approaches and how online sessions work
The client-centred approach is about listening and following what matters most to the person. The counsellor offers space to talk through recent events and feelings and helps set practical goals to reduce angry reactions.Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the thoughts and behaviours that keep anger active. It uses simple exercises to test new responses, change unhelpful thinking and build skills for when stress or frustration rises.
Psychodynamic ideas consider how past relationships and patterns influence current anger. This can help people see repeated reactions and try different ways of responding in present-day situations.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options and agree a plan based on the client’s goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps decide which methods to use and when to adjust them.
The original biography did not list specific session formats. Please confirm current online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. It also means exercises and behavioural experiments can be planned around real-life situations for faster practice.
