About Matthew
Matthew Land is an AHPRA-registered clinician with 12 years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety and relationship struggles. He works with people facing trauma, eating concerns and mood changes. He aims to create a respectful and compassionate space where people feel heard and understood.
Matthew adapts sessions to the person in front of him. He listens first, then offers a plan that fits each person’s needs and goals. That plan may include practical skills for managing panic, strategies to ease obsessive thinking, or work on communication and attachment patterns.
Background and approach
He uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Attachment-based ideas help when patterns from early relationships keep causing pain. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills can support people who need emotion regulation and distress tolerance tools.
Sessions are conversational and practical. Matthew focuses on simple exercises you can try between meetings. He also discusses how to track progress and adjust the approach if something isn’t working.
People meet him by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. He practises in Australia and conducts sessions in English. Getting started usually involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time to meet.
Therapeutic approaches suited to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It focuses on building meaningful behaviour rather than getting stuck on trying to remove every difficult thought. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical techniques for reducing anxiety and panic symptoms. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and communication, and offers ways to change those patterns for healthier relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Matthew will talk through your concerns and goals and suggest which methods might fit best. He invites collaboration so treatment is adjusted as progress is tracked and new needs appear.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers flexibility and accessibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skills practice and role-play, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging suits quick check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it simpler to fit sessions around work, caregiving or other commitments while still using evidence-informed approaches.
