I attended counseling sessions with Mark to overcome substance addiction. Having spent many years in a cycle of dysfunctional behaviour and addiction, he helped me negotiate many emotional issues with empathy and understanding that put me at ease from the start. Through my time with Mark, he led me to build my self esteem and resilience while assisting me to use my own emotional resources to fall upon when needed. Mark always made himself available for sessions and treated me with dignity and respect regardless. Thankfully I'am now living a fulfilling life, beyond what I previouslythought possible. I will be forever grateful for his help, thanks again Mark.
Mark is very down to earth and calm, which makes it easier to approach a topic you would otherwise struggle to talk about. His work is indepth, commited and he provides a safe comfortable space each session.
I am a counsellor and psychotherapist myself but Mark really stood out amongst countless therapists I have visited in the past. His ability to create a safe empathic environment for clients and subtly empower the client to take agency of their presenting issues was profound. I laughed as much as I cried in sessions with both being equally as healing!
Made me feel extremely calm spending a couple of minutes at the start of each session catching up
Mark was the therapist who worked best for me when I was struggling. He helped a huge amount with his calm nature and his patience. I highly recommend giving his services a try if you are going through something.
