About Mark
He uses a team-based approach in sessions. After identifying a problem, he helps create small, manageable steps and sets achievable goals. Homework and occasional therapeutic tasks are commonly part of the process to keep progress moving between meetings.
Mark holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Religious Studies and a Master’s Degree in Community Mental Health Counseling. He also completed two years of church-based Christian Counseling training and has incorporated faith-based conversations for clients who request them.
In his practice he commonly draws on Client-Centered methods, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and ideas from Adlerian psychology. He listens without judgment, offers steady encouragement, and asks clients to be open about setbacks so the work can adjust. He aims to prioritize urgent concerns first and tackle problems step by step.
Common concerns he helps address include stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, anger, and attention-related challenges. He also has experience with mood disorders, OCD-related issues, post-traumatic stress, and problems tied to chronic illness and pain.
How his approaches guide online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person’s view. The therapist offers empathy, acceptance, and encouragement while clients decide what matters most and set their own goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior. It breaks problems into manageable steps, builds skills for coping, and often includes homework to practice new ways of thinking and acting.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, needs, and preferences and then choose or blend methods that fit. That partnership guides what tasks and goals are set and how progress is measured.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives by removing travel time and allowing more flexible scheduling. It can also let people use shorter check-ins or sessions that better match a work break or a tight day. Because session formats are not specified here, confirm current options before booking so you know how sessions are offered and what will work best for your routine.
