About MARK
MARK O'NEILL is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. He works with adults on common pressures of early adulthood such as stress, anxiety, career uncertainty and relationship strain. He also helps people facing addictions, depression, grief and sleep problems.
He starts from the view that each person knows their story. Sessions focus on what matters to the client and on building practical ways to manage day-to-day challenges. Conversations are straightforward and aim to clear unhelpful patterns, improve communication and reduce overwhelming thoughts.
His practice draws on several approaches. Client-Centred Therapy keeps the client's aims at the centre of sessions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thinking and try small changes that can relieve anxiety or low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is available for people wanting to better understand emotional responses in relationships.
Mark also uses narrative and existential ideas to help people reframe difficult experiences and consider values and meaning in their lives. These approaches are used to tackle issues such as attachment, abandonment, codependency and identity-related concerns.
Practical matters such as work stress, first jobs, studying and feeling behind are common topics. He supports people who want coaching-style guidance alongside therapeutic work, and he works with those dealing with parenting strain, anger, body image or eating-related concerns.
How Mark uses therapeutic approaches online
Client-Centred Therapy places the client's goals at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens, reflects and follows what the client brings, which can help with everyday stresses and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing practical changes. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at emotional responses in relationships and can help people understand attachment and intimacy issues. Finding the right approach is worked out together. Mark will discuss goals, try methods and adjust as needed. That collaborative process aims to match techniques to what the client wants, whether that is short-term coping, deeper self-reflection or coaching-style support. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or study, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people connect with a therapist while living outside the immediate area, which can help maintain consistency during busy transitions.Areas of expertise
