Background and approach
Mark draws on several therapeutic styles to suit each person. He uses attachment-focused ideas to look at how past relationships shape current patterns. Cognitive behavioural techniques help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts.
He also uses client-centred and emotionally focused ways of working to explore feelings and build stronger connections to self and others. Sessions are practical and down-to-earth. Mark aims to make small changes feel manageable.
He works at a pace set by the individual and checks progress along the way. People come to him for a mix of short-term and longer-term work. He offers conversations that aim to reduce immediate distress and build tools for everyday life.
With warmth and straightforward guidance, Mark supports people as they make changes that matter.

Sessions & fees
How attachment and CBT work online
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating and feeling. Online sessions can focus on patterns that cause distress now and help people try different responses within everyday life. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, helps identify thought patterns and practical behaviours that keep problems going, then tests small changes to see what helps. Emotionally focused ideas support people to name and sit with strong feelings so they change how they respond to themselves and others.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client discuss goals, try approaches and adjust as needed. Mark uses what fits best for the person's history, current stresses and goals rather than following a single method.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins and people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to attend sessions from different places and at varying times.
