Matthew Bennett, BACP

Matthew Bennett is a BACP registered humanistic therapist practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. He offers therapy as a space for honest exploration where increased self-awareness, clarity, and reconnection with one’s sense of self are central goals. Registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) - a recognised professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists - he brings a person-focused orientation that values the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change.

Matthew’s work is collaborative and relational; he walks alongside clients as they examine their inner world, patterns in relationships, and their sense of identity. His clinical style draws on client-centred and existential approaches, creating room to sit with uncertainty, face difficult emotions, and open possibilities for meaningful change. This approach supports exploration of both present concerns and deeper underlying themes.

He has experience supporting people with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, self-esteem challenges, and depression. Additional areas of focus include attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, communication and commitment difficulties, feelings of emptiness, and challenges that can arise for veterans and first responders. Matthew aims to tailor each therapeutic journey to the individual relationship that develops in the room, working at a pace and focus that fits each person’s needs.
