Transactional Analysis Counselling in Rayleigh

Marc Freeman
Counsellor, MBACP
If you are finding life difficult, or struggling to understand or change the way you feel, talking to somebody can really help. Sometimes reaching out is the best thing you can do, and it can really help you put things into perspective and learn new ways of coping and dealing with the difficulties in your life. I have linked an example of how I work in this video: https://youtu.be/g4YMqJdPoj0

Using humanistic therapy for self-discovery, Transactional Analysis to understand patterns, the Rewind Method to release trauma, and touches of CBT to challenge unhelpful thoughts, I'll support you in easing anxiety, finding balance, and creating lasting change.
Are you struggling with feelings of anxiety and feel misunderstood in your relationships. Do past experiences affect how you manage feelings of emotional distress. Is this impacting your relationships and mental wellbeing. I help clients navigate these feelings working together on the issues that seem most pressing and challenging for them, whilst working together on ways to cope. I help support clients that are in the process of obtaining an ADHD diagnosis to work through feelings, identity and acceptance, as well as people dealing with life stages, grief and loss, relationship issues, stress, anxiety and worry.

Are there issues in your life, past or present, that you haven't addressed. Are these issues preventing you from moving forward in your life, relationship or work. I am a trained Counsellor with eleven years experience. it is a requirement to undergo our own individual therapy when training therefore I am very aware that one of the most important decisions, in choosing a therapist, is to be able to connect with them. I am also aware, having been on the other side of the room how difficult it can be to open up our lives, past and present, to a stranger. Reaching out for help at a difficult time in our lives is not easy.

My journey began with supporting teenagers in a secondary school, helping them navigate the emotional, social and academic challenges that often arise during adolescence. From there, my work has extended to individuals facing a range of life difficulties, including domestic abuse and social isolation, grief and loss and significant life transitions. I also work with couples who are managing the complexities of modern life, whether it's balancing demanding schedules, working through communication issues, dealing with financial pressures, or navigating the roles we take on within our family structures.

My own experience of therapy inspired me to become a psychotherapist. Through therapy, I gained a deeper understanding of how early experiences can shape our relationships, emotions and sense of self. This journey helped me move beyond patterns that had left me feeling stuck and develop a more fulfilling way of living. As a therapist, I offer a safe, compassionate and non-judgemental space where you can explore your difficulties, gain insight and work towards meaningful and lasting change. If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck or struggling to move forward, I invite you to get in touch.

I am trained in Psychodynamic, CBT, Humanistic and Transactional Analysis and Inner Child therapy.
Most of my clients come to me knowing they are not happy but they don't always know why. Sometimes it is because of the people and circumstances around them and sometimes it is because they keep repeating the same behaviours that are not producing a happy life for them. My job is to help people understand what it is in their lives that they are not happy with, or want to change and to imagine a life with the new changes in it. I work with the client to provide a safe, comfortable environment for them to explore what is going on for them and how they can make the changes to live a happy, fulfilling life.

If you have got this far you probably have an inkling that to talk about what is troubling you might help. Why not give it a try? Perhaps you are wondering how it works. The short answer is we work together to make connections between your past experience and your present life. It is as we become more aware of these connections that change can flourish. Why not take a step of faith and see where "talking about it" gets you?

You may appear to be coping on the outside, but internally feel overwhelmed, stuck or emotionally exhausted. Perhaps certain patterns keep repeating in relationships, work feels harder than it should, or past experiences continue to influence how you think, feel or respond. You might be experiencing anxiety, emotional overwhelm, relationship difficulties or a growing sense that something needs to change. You’re looking for clarity, steadiness and a space where you can understand yourself more deeply, rather than just manage day to day.

My ideal clients are adults carrying the weight of childhood trauma, complex grief, or attachment wounds — often survivors of abuse, adoptees, or those stuck between grief and acceptance after loss. They come to me feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unable to move forward despite years of trying. Using EMDR, IFS-informed approaches, and IADC Therapy, I help process unresolved trauma, release stuck grief, and address root causes rather than just symptoms. For those wanting faster results, I offer intensive therapy — three hours daily over three days. Together, we work towards lasting change, so you can finally move forward.
