About MARK
MARK O'NEILL is a BACP-registered counsellor who brings four years of clinical experience to his practice in the United Kingdom. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and addictions, and supports those dealing with relationship strain and grief. He approaches each person as the expert of their own life and aims to create a straightforward space for change.
He prefers a direct, conversational style. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps as well as exploring feelings and meaning.
Background and approach
He uses tools from cognitive behavioural therapy to tackle unhelpful thoughts and patterns, and draws on client-centred ideas to make sessions collaborative. Narrative therapy is part of his work when people want to reframe difficult chapters of their lives. Emotionally-focused ideas are used for helping with intimacy and communication concerns.
He will also bring existential perspectives when clients struggle with life purpose or big transitions. His approach suits people who want a mix of practical strategies and reflective conversation. He offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different routines.
Sessions sit within a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and scheduling is arranged according to availability. Sessions are offered in English and international clients may take part.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems because it gives clear techniques and short-term exercises to try between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, try methods and adjust the plan based on what helps most. That collaborative process means the therapy can shift from practical skill building to deeper emotional exploration as needed.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls recreate a face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help fit sessions around work, travel and busy family routines, while still letting registered or accredited professionals provide structured therapeutic support.
