About MARK
MARK O'NEILL is a counsellor registered with the BACP in the United Kingdom and has four years of professional experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns and the effects of trauma and abuse. He also supports those dealing with grief, parenting strain, career pressures and changes in life circumstances.
Mark describes clients as the experts of their own stories and focuses on what they already do well. Sessions are straightforward and practical. He listens to what matters, helps name difficult emotions and looks for steps a person can try between meetings.
His background includes a mix of talking approaches. He draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at attachment and emotional patterns. He also uses Client-Centred Therapy to follow a person’s pace and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
In practice he helps people talk through intimacy worries, codependency and commitment issues, as well as problems with sleep, anger and self-esteem. He also supports people struggling with drug or alcohol addiction and eating-related issues. Mark is comfortable working with concerns around abandonment, attachment challenges and communication problems.
Sessions are conducted in English and Mark accepts international clients. To begin, a short questionnaire is used to match needs before scheduling a first appointment. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
Working with EFT and other approaches online
Mark commonly uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and work with underlying emotions and attachment patterns that shape relationships and closeness. EFT aims to name hard-to-reach feelings and look at how those feelings influence interaction and connection.He also uses Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on following the person's pace and priorities, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical steps to try. These approaches suit issues such as relationship strain, anxiety, addictive behaviours and low self-esteem.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Mark will discuss your goals and preferences and together you can try methods that fit. He adjusts work as you learn what is helpful and what is not.
