About MARK

MARK O'NEILL trained and works in the United Kingdom and is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He brings four years of professional practice to conversations about stress, anxiety, addictions and relationships. He describes therapy as a shared effort and focuses on helping people take steady steps toward clearer thinking and better coping.

He uses straightforward, conversational sessions to map what feels most urgent. Sessions look at patterns such as attachment, abandonment or control issues, and practical problems like sleep, parenting or work stress.

How MARK works

He also supports people facing grief, intimacy concerns, eating or substance-related problems. Therapy draws on several approaches depending on the person and the problem. Client-Centred Therapy creates space for people to set their own pace.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Emotionally-Focused ideas and Narrative work look at how emotions and stories shape relationships and self-worth. Mark aims to help people build tools they can use day to day.

That might include clearer communication strategies, techniques for managing anxiety, or ways to cope during a relapse or difficult life change. He treats each person as the expert on their life and works alongside them to find practical next steps. Sessions are offered in English and he accepts international clients.

He offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different needs and schedules.

Approaches and access in online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and meeting people where they are, allowing them to set the pace and the agenda while the therapist offers empathy and reflection. This approach is useful for people who want space to make sense of their feelings and choices.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical techniques for managing anxiety, low mood and unhelpful habits. It is often used when people want concrete tools to change patterns that cause distress.

Emotionally-Focused ideas help to identify and work with core emotions that affect relationships and self worth, which can be important for intimacy-related issues and attachment concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person's goals, needs and preferences, and will adapt the plan as therapy unfolds.

Online sessions can be held by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be less demanding on bandwidth, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging allows reflection outside scheduled times. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and different time zones while keeping the focus on what helps the person most.
