He speaks plainly and listens closely to understand what matters most to each person. His work aims to make daily life feel more manageable and relationships more workable.
He has six years of clinical experience, much of it in inpatient settings working with men facing substance use disorder.

Approaches that fit your life and schedule
Mark uses client-centered therapy to place each person’s needs and goals at the center of sessions. That approach focuses on listening, empathy, and shaping therapy around what matters to the client. It is useful when someone needs a supportive space to talk through parenting pressures, relationship strain, or grief.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, or addictive habits. CBT helps people learn practical skills to change those patterns and manage symptoms day to day.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods feel most useful, adapting techniques as goals and preferences change. Clients set priorities and shape the plan for each session.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video sessions support deeper conversation and visual connection. Phone calls can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a quick check-in fits a busy day. Live chat and messaging allow short, ongoing contact between sessions for brief updates or practice of new skills. These options make it easier to fit therapy into parenting schedules, work hours, and daily life.
