He also supports concerns like ADHD, sleep disruption, parenting strain, career uncertainty, and compassion fatigue.
His style is warm and interactive. He listens first and helps people name small, practical goals. Sessions focus on clear steps and personal strengths rather than labels.
How Mark works
He works with each person at their pace and with respect. Mark uses a mix of approaches to fit what a person needs. He draws on client-centered work to build trust and CBT to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
He also incorporates existential ideas about meaning and mindfulness practices for stress and focus. Over three decades he has helped people navigate life changes, mood swings, and problems that can feel stuck. He aims to make sessions straightforward and usable in day-to-day life.
People leave with tools they can try between meetings. He accepts sessions in English and offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to his availability.
The subscription-based service for sessions can be canceled at any time.

Online support options
How his approaches fit online care
Client-centered work focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship. Online sessions let that conversation happen by video, phone, chat, or text so a person can connect in the way that feels easiest. This approach helps with trust, self-esteem, and deciding practical next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches clear techniques to change them. In online sessions CBT can include step-by-step exercises, thought records, and homework that a person can use between meetings to reduce anxiety, depression, or unhelpful habits.
Mindfulness techniques help with stress, focus, and managing strong emotions. Practices can be guided during a video call or offered as short exercises via messaging for quick check-ins during the week.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That plan can shift over time as progress is made and priorities change.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls are useful for longer sessions and face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions work when less bandwidth or no camera is preferred. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for shorter check-ins, quick tools, and ongoing support between meetings.
