About Mark
Mark Hewitson is a counsellor with four years of professional experience. He offers a calm, straightforward presence and focuses on practical ways to reduce stress and anxiety. He aims to make it easier for people to talk about difficult feelings without feeling judged.
He supports people dealing with relationship strain, family conflict, low self-esteem and depression. He also helps with issues such as attachment worries, communication problems, codependency and commitment concerns.
Background and approach
Mark works with fathers on fatherhood issues and with men facing midlife questions. Mark keeps sessions focused and practical. He helps people identify patterns that cause pain and tries out small changes that can make day-to-day life easier.
Conversations are guided by the person's goals, whether that is improving communication, finding purpose, or easing loneliness. People with long-term illness, chronic pain or those facing end-of-life questions can bring those concerns into sessions. He also supports those who struggle with guilt, shame, feelings of emptiness or avoidance in relationships.
His approach is to listen, reflect and help people choose workable steps forward. Mark works in the United Kingdom and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered online by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online therapy
Mark uses recognised, evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding patterns and building practical coping skills. One approach he uses helps people notice unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns, then test small changes to see what makes life easier; this is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress. Another approach concentrates on relationship patterns and attachment, helping people understand how early patterns affect current connections and communication problems.Finding the right way of working is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the person about what they want to change and suggest approaches that match their goals. Together they review what works and adapt as needed until a good fit is found.
Online therapy offers flexibility for different lifestyles and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing their thoughts or who need brief, timely support between longer sessions. These options make it possible to fit therapy around work, caregiving and other commitments, while letting people choose the format that helps them engage best.
