    Delving into anxiety from a therapist who has worked closely with it, what is it, why are so many of us dealing with it, and how can it be managed? What are some easy ways outside of therapy and medication to lessen the effects of anxiety and occurrence of panic attacks? Always a fascinating chat from someone who has been there, written the book, and now practices it for a living.

    In order to help himself out of the malaise of a mentally dark time he was going through, Matt went that extra step further a wrote a whole book about it - for himself first and foremost - and it's turned out to be so popular it hit number one on the best sellers list in NZ. We go a little deeper into some of the topics in the book - specifically worry and anxiety and his own dealings with it, and into grief, what he would have done differently when adjusting to life without his lovely mum.
