"Matt has been a fantastic listening ear for me and has helped with many different areas of my personal and work life. Looking back, the most significant period was during a tough personal time where I was struggling to understand my emotions and comprehend the effect of a tumultuous relationship breakdown. Over many sessions, Matt would sit and listen to me process a lot of different states of mind. Occasionally, he would challenge a thought or view I had and we would discuss them so I understood them and therefore didn't feel attacked by them. I'd often leave with a new perspective to consider. He guided me to not stay festering in my little pity party over what was happening, all whilst still providing a very safe and compassionate setting for me to move through things in my own time. I never felt rushed or as though I should be in a different stage of the grief I was processing which is one of the things I am the most grateful for. Even now, when I do see Matt (as he is stuck with me forever now - sorry buddy), he still provides me with many different perspectives to look at things. He is one of the few people I will go to for advice or soundboard thoughts off of. I trust him to give me a reason for everything he says knowing it's with my best intentions at heart. You don't find that everywhere."

"I was encountering some challenges in understanding further pathways available to me in my career. Matt offered to act as a sounding board for me to work out my options. Matt has a calm, non-judgemental demeanour, and his open questions and thorough responses made it clear that he was really listening to what I had to say. I was really impressed by how naturally he asked around the subject until I came to a realisation that I hadn't thought of before! By letting me talk through the options I had already found and try to understand what made those choices so important to me, Matt helped me uncover a better understanding of what I wanted from my career. I'd definitely recommend Matt as a consultant if you are meeting some challenges in how your work fits into your life."
