How his approaches fit into online sessions
Matthew uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking. CBT often focuses on small behavior changes and practical exercises that suit problems like anxiety, low mood, or stress.He also uses Solution-Focused Therapy, which centers on goals and immediate steps. That approach highlights strengths and short-term strategies to move forward when someone feels stuck or overwhelmed.
Figuring out the right approach is part of the work. Matthew treats the choice of methods as collaborative. He will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try options and adjust based on what helps.
