Matthew Stiff

I am an HCPC- and BACP-registered chartered counselling  psychologist, providing counselling psychology and coaching in Central London and online. Using warmth and compassion, I work with individuals and couples to develop an understanding of the problem you wish to work with, along with any underlying difficulties. I then take a collaborative approach to exploring possible treatment pathways and to develop a plan to help you realise your goals. As well as providing general counselling in areas such as depression, anxiety, loss, phobias etc., I have special interests and expertise in relationship difficulties, OCD, ADHD, addictions, eating disorders and bereavement. 

I am trained to work using person-centred, psychodynamic and person-centred approaches in delivering therapy. I am also trained to Level Three in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). In addition to personal and couples therapy, I provide personal and professional coaching to individuals and organisations, and am registered with the British Psychological Society as a qualified test user for occupational, ability and personality.

My consulting room is located in the City of London within 5-minutes walk of Liverpool Street Station (Network Rail, Underground, Elizabeth Line) and 14 minutes from Shoreditch High Street Station (London Overground). It is also well-served by buses. There are public car parks within walking distance but public transport is recommended. 

The consulting room is light and airy and is wheel-chair accessible. The Reception is open between 08:30 and 18:00 and a seated waiting area is available.
