How Mark’s Approaches Work in Online Therapy
Mark uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors; this approach is useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and many stress-related problems. Imago Relationship Therapy focuses on improving communication and empathy between partners and can help with recurring relationship conflict and issues like infidelity.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mark will collaborate with each person to choose or adapt methods based on goals, needs, and preferences. That conversation guides what techniques are used and how sessions are structured so the work fits the person rather than the other way around.
Confirm the current session options before booking so you know how sessions will be scheduled. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing appointments from different locations. It also lets people choose formats that match practical needs, such as shorter check-ins when time is tight or video when visual cues matter. Ask about session logistics when you sign up so scheduling matches your routine.
