About Mark

Mark Bullock is a counsellor who works from a client-centred stance. He invites people to tell their story and uses their strengths as a starting point for change. Mark holds BACP registration and has seven years of professional experience in the UK.

He regularly helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety and depression. He also supports those facing trauma, grief, low self-esteem and motivation struggles. Eating and food-related issues are part of his practice focus alongside relationship and intimacy concerns.

Mark draws on approaches that value the therapeutic relationship. He uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. He also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.

Sessions are practical and conversational. He listens first, then works with each person to set small, manageable goals. People may work on coping skills, new ways to communicate, or steps towards healthier routines around food and mood.

His style aims to be calm and straightforward. He encourages people to move at their own pace and to build confidence through achievable steps. The emphasis is on support, understanding and practical ways to cope with life’s challenges.

How Mark's approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work looks at how earlier relationships shape current feelings and reactions. Online sessions can use this approach to spot repeating patterns and try different ways of relating to others. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and supporting the person in their own process. In an online setting this often means the counsellor follows the client's lead, offering reflection and encouragement to build confidence and self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and day-to-day needs and together decide what methods to try. This is collaborative work and may change over time as progress or new issues emerge.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow single-focus check-ins between other commitments. Different formats also let people choose what suits their energy and schedule, whether shorter check-ins or full sessions, without implying any particular delivery method is offered by this counsellor.
