Colette Mattos

She also helps people who are single and want to understand recurring patterns that stop relationships from working. Colette works in a calm, collaborative way so clients can speak openly and start to feel clearer about next steps.

Colette uses an attachment-informed lens to look at how early experiences shape how people relate now. She helps clients notice recurring patterns and emotional triggers that sit beneath day-to-day problems.

Together they map those patterns and try small, practical changes to improve relationships and self-relationship. Many people who come to Colette also describe anxiety, low mood or low self-esteem connected to their relationships.

She uses clear, practical tools from approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy to manage mood and unhelpful thinking. Sessions are conversational and focused on what the client wants to change.

Colette has four years of clinical experience and holds BACP registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She offers sessions in English and works with people in the United Kingdom.

Her practice also addresses related concerns such as attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress, communication problems and life transitions. Colette aims to help clients feel more connected to themselves and others, and to find clearer ways forward.
