About The Anxious Lad

Welcome to The Anxious Lad Mental Health Company, where we understand the transformative power of resilience and hope. Founded by Matt Keenan, our company is driven by a deeply personal mission to support individuals navigating the complexities of mental health, inspired by Matt's own journey living with Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD).

Matt's story is a testament to the importance of accurate diagnosis and effective treatment. Initially misdiagnosed with depression, he found himself on a medication treadmill that only exacerbated his struggles. This challenging experience led Matt to reevaluate his approach to mental health and seek alternative, empowering solutions.

After retraining in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Hypnotherapy, and Strategic Life Coaching, Matt emerged with a newfound purpose. He decided to channel his knowledge and personal insights into creating a space where others could find support and guidance on their mental health journey.

The Anxious Lad Mental Health Company specialises in three core areas:

  1. Life Coaching: Our personalised life coaching sessions provide individuals with the tools and strategies to navigate life's challenges, set meaningful goals, and cultivate a positive mindset. Matt's unique approach combines professional expertise with a deep understanding of the human experience.

  2. Mental Health Training: We offer comprehensive mental health training programs to equip individuals with the skills to support themselves and others. Through workshops and courses, we address various aspects of mental health, empowering participants to foster a culture of understanding and compassion.

  3. Suicide First Aid Training: Recognising the critical importance of suicide prevention, our company provides specialised training in suicide first aid. Matt's firsthand experience brings a compassionate perspective to this training, ensuring participants gain valuable insights and practical tools to intervene and support those in crisis.

At The Anxious Lad Mental Health Company, we believe in the power of resilience, empathy, and community. Our commitment is to foster a space where individuals can openly discuss mental health, access effective resources, and embark on a journey toward healing and self-discovery.

Join us on this transformative path towards mental well-being. Together, we can break the stigma, promote understanding, and build a world where everyone feels empowered to embrace their mental health journey with courage and hope.
