How Mark works
The focus is on small, realistic steps that build confidence over time. Mark trained and practices as a psychotherapist with NCPS and the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

Common issues he supports include trauma and abuse, addictions, anger, grief after separation, attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, hoarding, and impulses such as compulsive sexual behaviours. He also helps people manage life changes, job strain, and feelings of isolation or emptiness.
Sessions blend elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and client-centred work. Mark aims to help people recognise patterns, practise new skills, and make steady changes that fit their life and goals.

How this therapist uses evidence-based approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them. It focuses on what matters to the person and on taking committed steps towards those values, which can help with anxiety, stress and life transitions.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It uses straightforward strategies and homework tasks to challenge unhelpful thinking and build new coping habits, useful for anxiety, depression and intrusive thoughts.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy, EFT, concentrates on understanding emotions and how they shape close connections. It can help people who struggle with attachment, abandonment, or recurring relationship patterns to develop clearer emotional responses and more effective communication.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mark will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit their concerns. Decisions are made together so therapy stays practical and relevant.
Online sessions can be delivered by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can fit a short break or need less bandwidth, and messaging or live chat suit people who prefer written check-ins or flexible timing. These options aim to make it easier to attend sessions around work and daily life.
