About Marco
Marco Schilling is a psychotherapeutic counsellor with four years' experience. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He works with people facing current problems and longer-term concerns, including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties and the stresses of life transition.
He uses an integrative approach that blends Client-Centred Therapy with Psychodynamic Therapy. Sessions focus on understanding how past experiences and present patterns connect. Conversations aim to increase self-awareness and make feelings easier to understand and manage.
Marco has worked in the NHS and as a bereavement counsellor. That work included supporting people with depression, chronic mental health conditions, autism and learning difficulties, and those affected by self-harm or suicidal thinking. He also has experience as a support worker working with neurodiversity and learning needs.
Originally from Switzerland, Marco has lived and worked in several countries and offers therapy in English and German. He also has professional experience in music and television production, which informs his broader interest in creativity and self-expression.
Sessions can explore practical concerns such as career or study changes, parenting pressures, sleep problems and addiction, as well as deeper relational themes like abandonment, attachment and trust. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule their first session.
How Marco uses Client-Centred and Psychodynamic work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping the person find their own way forward. It is useful for dealing with low self-esteem, life changes and relationship concerns by prioritising the client's perspective and choices.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that repeat from past relationships and early experiences. It can help people make sense of recurring reactions, attachment issues and emotional responses that feel confusing or stuck.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Marco will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which elements of these approaches fit best. Sessions adjust over time as needs change and as the work uncovers what is most helpful.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting therapy into a busy study or work schedule and reducing travel time. The profile does not specify which online formats are offered here, so confirm current session options before booking. Many clients find online sessions make it simpler to keep regular appointments and to follow up between meetings when needed.
