Existential Therapy and Online Support
Existential Therapy focuses on questions of meaning, choice, freedom, and responsibility. It helps people explore how values, life direction, and personal choices shape their experience and can be useful for those coping with grief, anxiety, stress, life changes, or a sense of isolation. The approach encourages honest reflection about what matters most and supports people in making decisions that align with their priorities and sense of purpose.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Matthew works with each person to identify which methods feel most helpful given their needs, goals, and preferences, and he adapts the work as understanding deepens and circumstances change. This collaborative stance helps ensure the therapy remains relevant and responsive.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit support around work, family, or mobility needs. Registered professionals and therapists can deliver meaningful, focused work through these formats, and many people find the range of options improves access and consistency of care.
