Hello, my name is Mark. Thank you for looking at my profile. As you're here, there is a chance that you are going through difficult times in your life. Rest assured that you do not have to go through it alone. I am here to support you, so let me tell you a bit about my approach to counselling. I use a person centred, integrative approach. This is a non-directive method whereby I will be guided by you, the client, as to what issues you wish to discuss. It also enables me to tailor my service to your specific needs, using a variety of therapies, including CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) and (CFT) Compassion Focused Therapy.
Through my work at Head Agenda in Leeds and Uplift Mental Health, I have a good deal of experience in helping people whose issues are driven by anxiety, stress and depression. I am able to create a safe, confidential environment in which we can explore the things that are troubling you together.
I decided to have a career change to counselling after a period of extreme anxiety and stress in my own life. What I have learned is that although we cannot always affect the circumstances we are in, we do have the power to change our responses to them. Most of our responses are learned behaviour. As such, they can be unlearned and I can help you with that.
