About Matteo
BACP counsellor with five years' experience, working in the United Kingdom and offering sessions in English and Italian. Matteo Oriani helps people manage anxiety, stress, low self‑esteem, relationship difficulties, career and life transitions, addiction concerns and grief. He offers both short-term and longer-term work depending on what a person needs.
Matteo uses a mix of evidence-based therapeutic techniques. He draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to address unhelpful thinking and on person-centred listening to clarify what matters to the client. He also uses Gestalt, existential and psychosynthesis influences to explore identity, values and purpose in practical terms.
He has a particular interest in image-based approaches informed by Jungian ideas. When relevant, sessions may include guided imagery or drawing exercises to help people access feelings that are hard to name. Matteo also offers mindfulness practices to reduce physiological arousal and improve attention when that fits the concern.
His background before counselling was in the financial and sustainability sectors across the UK, Italy and East Africa. That experience included team leadership and mentoring, and it informs how he supports people with work-related stress and career transitions. He invites straightforward conversation about practical steps as well as emotional patterns.
Sessions can be offered in English or Italian. International clients are accepted. People who are unsure how to begin are asked to use the platform matching steps to book an initial appointment.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate to online work
Matteo draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to help people identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviours. CBT-style work focuses on clear, practical steps and short experiments, which can be done between sessions to track changes in mood and routine.He also uses image-based methods informed by Jungian ideas, such as guided imagery and drawing exercises. These techniques help access feelings that are difficult to put into words and can be adapted to remote sessions using simple materials or verbal guidance.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Matteo will collaborate with the person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences and the problems they bring. That choice can change as therapy progresses and will be reviewed together.
The practical benefits of remote work include fitting sessions around busy schedules and reducing travel time. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm which options are available before booking. Many people use online sessions to keep continuity during relocations or to combine therapy with work and family commitments.
