About Matthew Appleton
Matthew Appleton is a fully qualified psychotherapist trained in Core Process Psychotherapy and Integrative Body Psychotherapy, offering general counselling sessions alongside specialist therapeutic approaches. He practises craniosacral therapy, working with both the structural and biodynamic aspects of the discipline, and is a supervisor with the Craniosacral Therapy Association of the UK. He also offers somatic experiencing, drawing on mindfulness practice and psychological approaches to support clients in resolving deep patterns of tension and stress.

He has developed Integrative Baby Therapy (IBT), an approach that acknowledges babies as sensitive and aware beings, bringing psychotherapeutic understanding to early life. This focus on the youngest clients reflects his deep interest in supporting families through the perinatal and early childhood periods.
Beyond one-to-one therapy, Matthew directs Conscious Embodiment Trainings, offering workshops and courses for adults interested in deepening their understanding of body-based and psychological work.
Matthew brings together psychotherapy, hands-on bodywork, and a particular sensitivity to the needs of infants and children, making him a valuable resource for individuals and families seeking integrated, embodied approaches to wellbeing and emotional development.
