About Matthew
Matthew Land is an AHPRA-registered counsellor with 12 years of professional experience. He focuses on practical support for stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, eating difficulties and depression. He aims to treat people with respect, sensitivity and compassion. Taking the first step can feel hard, and he acknowledges that courage.
Matthew tailors conversations and plans to each person's needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. He uses a mix of approaches to help people manage unhelpful thoughts and build more workable habits. Sessions commonly include clear strategies and simple exercises to practise between meetings.
People often come for help with attachment and abandonment worries, body image and guilt or shame. He also supports those dealing with isolation, communication problems, impulsivity, obsessive thoughts and mood disorders. Work and wellbeing concerns fit naturally with his focus on stress, purpose and balancing life demands.
His background includes a decade-plus of clinical work across varied settings in Australia. That experience informs how he responds to trauma, panic and personality-related struggles. He keeps the conversation grounded and focused on small, achievable changes.
Matthew aims to collaborate with each person to set realistic goals. He explains options simply and helps people choose what fits their life. The emphasis is on steady progress rather than quick fixes.
How Matthew uses therapy approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It can suit stress, anxiety and worries about life purpose by focusing on what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and teaches practical skills to reduce symptoms like panic attacks or low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and helps people understand how early experiences shape current connections and communication.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Matthew will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and decide collaboratively which methods to try. He adapts the plan as needs change and checks in about what is and isn’t helpful.
Session formats are not detailed in the supplied biography, so please confirm current options before booking.
