About Matthew
Matthew Pitman is a psychotherapist with ten years of clinical experience. He works with people facing depression, anxiety, trauma and stress, and helps them talk through difficult feelings and memories. Matthew aims to make therapy a straightforward space for people who feel overwhelmed or stuck.
He uses a conversational style that focuses on what matters most to the client. Sessions involve talking through current struggles and looking at small changes a person might try.
Background and approach
Matthew listens for patterns such as codependency, commitment worries, or repeated communication problems, and helps people notice how those patterns affect their goals. Many clients come with histories of childhood abuse, dissociation, grief or domestic violence. Matthew helps people name those experiences and consider practical steps for coping.
He also supports men facing isolation, fatherhood issues, guilt, shame or questions about life purpose. Existential Therapy is part of his approach; this means he helps clients face big questions about meaning, choice and responsibility in everyday life. That work is grounded in simple, concrete conversation rather than abstract theory.
Sessions are available in English and are offered through video calls, phone, live chat or text messaging. Costs vary with location and are delivered via a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a session is then scheduled according to availability.

Online support
Existential perspectives and online practice
Existential Therapy helps people face questions about meaning, choice and responsibility in life. It encourages honest conversation about what matters and what feels missing, which can help with issues like life purpose, guilt, shame and major life changes.In online sessions Matthew brings the same conversational focus as in person. The aim is to work together to find which approach suits the person's needs and goals. He will discuss options and adjust the way sessions run so the method fits the client's preferences and situation.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow fuller interaction and visual cues, phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and chat or messaging suit people who prefer writing or need flexible timing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping therapy accessible.
