About MARK

MARK O'NEILL is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with a BACP credential and four years of professional experience. He focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, addiction struggles, relationship strain and major life changes. He aims to make the first step easier and offers steady support as people begin to make changes in their lives.

He believes each person knows their own story and brings strengths into the room. Sessions are conversational and practical. He listens, helps clarify what matters most, and works with clients to set manageable goals that fit into everyday life.

His work draws on several approaches, so sessions might include exploring current thoughts and behaviours, looking at emotional patterns in relationships, and reflecting on personal stories that shape identity. This can help with problems such as low mood, sleep difficulties, parenting stress, and challenges linked to intimacy or self-esteem.

People who come for help with addictions, codependency, or anger find a mix of practical strategies and space to make sense of why those patterns developed. Those facing grief, separation or career stress can expect a careful balance of immediate coping tools and time to reflect on longer term direction.

He accepts international clients and offers sessions in English. To begin, people use the site's Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule according to his availability.

How approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. It helps people feel heard and start to find their own solutions when life feels confusing or heavy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect and gives practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns that feed anxiety, low mood or sleep problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people recognise and work with emotional patterns in relationships, which can be useful for intimacy and communication difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with a client about their needs, goals and preferences and then try ways of working that suit them. This is a collaborative process and can change over time as progress is made or needs shift.

The original biography does not list specific online or remote session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people connect from another location when arranging an in-person meeting would be difficult. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and conversations to work well at a distance while keeping focus on practical steps and emotional understanding.

Before you get in touch

Therapists listed here offer talking therapy online. A profile is not a diagnosis of you or of anyone in your life, and no therapist can promise how a relationship will turn out.

If you are in danger, or someone is hurting or threatening you, contact emergency services or a domestic-abuse helpline. The numbers are at the foot of this page.
