About MARK
MARK O'NEILL is a counsellor with a background in the United Kingdom and four years of professional practice. He works with people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety and those coping with addiction or low mood. He approaches sessions with a down-to-earth style and a focus on practical steps that fit everyday life.
He believes clients know their own story and brings a listening stance that helps people find their strengths.
Background and approach
Conversations aim to clarify what matters most and to set small, manageable goals. Sessions are straightforward and use questions, reflection and practical tasks rather than jargon. His work covers relationship concerns, career stress, grief and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
He also supports people dealing with sleep problems, parenting strain, anger and big life changes. Additional focus areas include ADHD, abandonment and attachment concerns, body image and patterns such as codependency or avoidant behaviour. MARK uses a mix of familiar counselling approaches to shape sessions to each person.
He draws on client-centred ways of listening, cognitive behavioural ideas for changing thoughts and behaviours, and narrative and existential ideas to explore meaning and identity. The emphasis is on collaboration and on finding ways that feel realistic for daily life. He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, works in English, and accepts international clients.
People who want calm, practical support and a simple, respectful approach often find his style helpful.
How therapeutic approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding your experience. Online, this means sessions concentrate on building rapport through open conversation and reflective listening to help you feel heard and understood.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviours connect. Remotely this often involves setting small experiments between sessions, practising skills during calls, and using messages to track progress and homework.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy centres on emotions and attachment patterns to improve connection and self-understanding. In online sessions it can help people name emotions, notice patterns and try new ways of relating in day-to-day life.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and suggest options based on what you say. Together you can try methods and adjust what you do next so it fits your needs.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual cues help the conversation, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, and messaging suits short check-ins or flexible timing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel while keeping continuity of support.
