About Mark

Mark Lowman is a counsellor who aims to make first steps feel manageable. He offers a calm, respectful space where people can talk about anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship strain, workplace stress and addictive behaviours. Mark is introduced here as a BACP and NCPS registered practitioner and works from a practical, supportive stance.

He keeps sessions straightforward and focused on what helps day to day. Mark listens and then suggests tools to reduce anxious thinking, manage overwhelming emotions and rebuild confidence.

Background and approach

He uses plain language rather than jargon so people can try techniques between sessions. Mark combines several approaches to suit different needs. He draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to notice and change unhelpful thoughts.

He uses client-centred principles to make space for a person’s own pace and priorities. He also works with emotion-focused methods to help with difficult feelings in relationships. Before counselling he worked in professional and corporate settings.

That background helps him relate to career pressure, difficult team dynamics and burnout. He often supports people wanting clearer boundaries, more confidence at work, or help recovering after loss or separation. Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging.

Mark has three years of experience and is listed with NCPS and the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire. For those wanting practical support with emotions, relationships or stress, Mark aims to combine understanding with usable tools.

He works collaboratively to plan steps that fit everyday life.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Mark commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and choosing actions that match personal values. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises listening and a non-judgemental space so people can set their own pace and goals. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and tries practical exercises to shift those patterns and reduce distress.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That might mean combining elements from different approaches and adjusting plans over time as progress and priorities change.

Online therapy offers flexibility and different ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face discussion, phone sessions suit lower bandwidth or when being on camera is difficult, live chat can be useful for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while still following a clear therapeutic plan.
