About Kevin
Kevin Matthews is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, anger, depression and attention difficulties such as ADHD. He frames the work around the client as the expert in their own life and offers steady support for people taking the first step towards change.
His manner is straightforward and encouraging, aimed at making the first sessions feel manageable for a worried parent reading on a phone.
Background and approach
Kevin uses an approach that centres the person in the room. That means conversations focus on what matters to the client and build on their existing strengths. He also brings in body-focused techniques from somatic work and parts-based ideas from Internal Family Systems when they suit the issue at hand.
Over four years of practice, Kevin has supported people through grief, separation and midlife transitions. He also works with concerns linked to shame, guilt, abandonment and attachment difficulties. Practical problems such as workplace stress, money worries and social anxiety are covered too.
Sessions aim to be collaborative and paced to the client. Kevin helps people notice patterns, try small changes and reflect on what feels useful. He encourages learning from each step rather than aiming for a single quick fix.
To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule according to the therapist's availability. Session costs vary by location and the practice uses a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Kevin works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort. That may mean starting with person-centred conversations, adding somatic practices, or using parts-based ideas from Internal Family Systems when helpful.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. One practical benefit of online sessions is they can fit into a busy week more easily, reducing travel time and making it simpler to attend after work or school runs. Online work can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that avoid camera use when that feels easier. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor online sessions to suit pacing and access, helping therapy become part of everyday life without imposing a single approach.
