Matthew holds a Metanoia Institute Certificate in Clinical Supervision and worked as a Sight Loss Counselling Team Leader and Safeguarding Lead for RNIB (The Royal National Institute of Blind People) for more than five years, alongside over a decade’s experience of providing therapy and working in private practice.

Supervision shouldn’t simply be a grey audit or a giving of wisdom from on-high, a chore to be endured. At its best it should be, like therapy itself, a restorative and celebratory practice in which you have the chance to explore and build your identity as a therapist alongside a supervisor who brings colour and humanity to the relationship and helps you do the same in your client work. As your supervisor, I offer you room, with a peer, to reflect, experiment, and feel held.

I am happy to share my own experiences and the lessons I have learned with you, but it’s not (and shouldn’t be) my job to turn you into a clone of me, or to insist you practice the same way as I do. Instead, my goal is always to help you find your own path and own ways of meeting your clients, looking after yourself, and maintain your well-being and the ethics of your work.

Whether you’re a trainee or a seasoned professional counsellor, therapist, or psychotherapist, I offer a relationship in which you can explore, puzzle through challenges with my support, and celebrate the relationships and successes you accomplish with your clients.

I am pleased to offer 30, 60, and 90 minute supervision sessions by phone and Zoom video call, and a 20 minute free consultation in advance of beginning work with me to ensure we’re a good fit. I also offer concessionary rates for student counsellors and psychotherapists.

Please note that I work exclusively remotely, and supervision sessions are offered via phone or video call only.
