About me and my therapy practice

Hi, my name is Mark. I know life is challenging. Talking therapy can help us explore where we are, where we have been, and where we are going. We can meet online or in person in Bristol (BS15). 

I have worked with people living with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, phobias, relationship challenges and bereavement. I have lived experience of the ups and downs of life including divorce, identity, bereavement and starting again.

The aim of my work is to offer empathic support for you in a safe and non-judgemental space. I am LGBTQ+ affirming and I can adapt my practice to better support autistic people and those with ADHD.

I trained as a humanistic counsellor at the University of West England (MA in Counselling and Psychotherapy). I have also been a Samaritans Listener and a community mediator.

My personal journey includes living within a closed religious community until my late twenties. This experience inspires my passion for helping people experiencing restrictive or controlling relationships, families or faiths, or are questioning their identity in our complicated world. I can provide a grounded, secular space for anyone wanting to explore the possibilities of change.

Sessions available online or in-person from £50 per hour. For a free 20 minute consultation to discuss if counselling is right for you, get in touch. I look forward to hearing from you.
