About Mark
Mark frames each session around what the individual needs right now. He listens first, then tailors conversation and a plan to match the person's goals. That might mean practical strategies for anxiety or looking closely at patterns that feed addiction or relationship conflict.
Across 35 years of work he has supported people facing life transitions and complex losses. He has experience addressing caregiver stress, hospice and end-of-life concerns, divorce and separation, and feelings of isolation or purposelessness. He also assists with mens issues, multicultural concerns, and midlife challenges.
Mark uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to break down thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. He also draws on Imago Relationship Therapy to help people understand patterns that affect close relationships. Sessions aim to be practical and focused on change that fits daily life.
He encourages anyone who is nervous about starting therapy to acknowledge that first step as important. To begin, visitors choose the Start Therapy button, fill out a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapists availability.

How CBT and Imago methods translate to online work
Mark uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT sessions often focus on clear steps and practice tasks that can be worked on between meetings to reduce anxiety or manage addictive urges.He also uses Imago Relationship Therapy ideas to help people notice interaction patterns that create distance or conflict. That approach emphasizes understanding both partners' needs and creating new ways to talk about sensitive topics.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work together with each person to decide which methods and goals fit best. That collaboration includes checking how techniques feel in real life and adjusting them as needed.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to continue therapy through life changes while keeping focus on practical strategies and relationship skills.
