Matt Thomas
Elite Case Management & Strategic Crisis Intervention
When navigating the high-stakes complexities of addiction, mental health, personal or professional conflict, success depends on a steady hand and a deep network.
With over 12 years of professional experience and 6,000 hours of direct engagement, I provide the strategic oversight required to manage life’s most challenging transitions with total professional discretion.
Case Management Distinction
My role is to act as your Elite Case Manager.
I specialise in "architecting" bespoke recovery ecosystems. I don’t just offer support; I navigate the entire landscape of care for you, vetting world-class specialists and coordinating a global network of trusted clinicians to ensure every facet of your journey is seamless, integrated, and effective.
Industry Leadership & Advocacy
My approach is informed by a career dedicated to systemic change and high-level leadership in the recovery sector:
-
Co-Founder & Chair of Trustees: Music Support (the UK's leading music industry addiction & mental health charity).
-
Co-Founder & Creative Lead: The Taking Action on Addiction National Campaign.
-
Former Director: International Conference on Addiction and Associated Disorders (ICAAD) for 4 years.
-
Co-Presenter: The Empathy for the Devil podcast.
A Commitment to Total Discretion
In the world of high-stakes professional and personal transitions, privacy is not a luxury, it is a requirement.
My services are conducted with the highest level of confidentiality and professional integrity.
Whether I am managing a crisis for a public figure, a corporate leader, or a private family, I ensure that every referral, consultation, and clinical pathway is handled with absolute anonymity. Your trust is the foundation of my work.
Media Consultancy & Industry Influence
Beyond individual case management, I provide specialist consultation for the media and entertainment industries, ensuring accurate and sensitive portrayals of addiction and mental health.
-
Production Consultant: Expert advisor for major broadcasters including the BBC and ITV (e.g., The Archers, Emmerdale).
-
Creative Strategy: Advisor for national campaigns and international conferences.
-
Public Advocacy: Leading the global conversation on recovery and behavioral change.
