Compassionate, Evidence-Based
Psychological Care

Navigating life's complexities with professional guidance. I provide a safe, confidential space to explore your thoughts and build resilience.

Dr. Matthew Wilcock

Clinical Psychologist

Welcome

I'm a HCPC-registered clinical psychologist based in Cardiff. I help people with various mental health problems including depression, anxiety, OCD, trauma, stress, relationship problems, addiction and sleep difficulties.

My therapy will usually begin with a conversation about your goals and what you are hoping to get support with. I primarily use a therapeutic approach called Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help understand and overcome the problem you are experiencing.

I aim to be holistic, taking into account how factors including early experiences, relationship challenges, daily stressors, physical health problems, sleep and diet can all contribute to how we feel.

Therapy Services

Finding your path forward. Offering Face-to-Face and Video Call sessions tailored to you.

Individual Therapy

I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where we can work through difficulties such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges together. My goal is to help you make sense of your experiences and move towards meaningful change. We can meet in person in Cardiff or connect via video call, whichever feels most comfortable for you.

My Approach: While my primary training is in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), I work integratively. This means I also incorporate Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) to build psychological flexibility, alongside systemic patterns and mindfulness techniques depending on your unique needs.

Couples Therapy

Relationship difficulties can be painful and confusing. I work with couples to improve communication, rebuild trust, and navigate conflicts.

Using evidence-based systemic and behavioural approaches, we will work together to understand the patterns that keep you stuck and find new ways of relating to one another that foster connection and understanding.
