About MARK
MARK O'NEILL is a counsellor who works in the United Kingdom and is listed with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). He draws on four years of professional experience to help people facing anxiety, stress, addiction and life changes. He sees therapy as a partnership and treats each person as the expert on their own life.
He aims to make the first steps feel manageable. Sessions focus on what is happening now and what the person wants to change.
Background and approach
Conversations are straightforward and goal oriented when needed, and gentler when someone needs space to reflect. His work often centres on relationships, intimacy and communication. He also supports people dealing with grief, parenting strain, sleep problems and career pressures.
Addictions and issues around control, codependency or domestic violence are also in his remit. MARK uses a mix of talking approaches to suit different needs. He draws on client-centred methods to follow the person's lead.
He also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns, and emotionally-focused ideas when relationship feelings are central. Sessions are offered in English and are available to international clients. Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging.
Costs vary by location and are billed through a cancellable subscription model. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability. This process helps match priorities and practicalities before the first meeting.

How approach and online sessions work together
Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens closely and follows the person's concerns, helping them make sense of their experience and choose what to focus on. This approach is useful when someone needs space to process feelings and find their own direction.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviours. This style can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep issues and repeat patterns in relationships.
Emotionally-Focused ideas concentrate on the feelings behind relationship troubles. They help people name emotions, see patterns in how they respond, and try different ways to connect or set boundaries when intimacy or communication are causing distress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and adapt methods to the person's goals and preferences. Decisions are made together so sessions reflect what matters most to the individual.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls suit longer, face-to-face style conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging work for shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection between sessions or when a written approach feels more comfortable. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, travel or differing schedules.
