Mark Byatt

Mark Byatt is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing anger, stress and anxiety. He also supports people dealing with depression, addictions, relationship struggles and grief. Mark works in a straightforward, calm way and aims to make conversations feel easier to begin.

Mark has around 10 years of experience working in private practice and with charities. He uses approaches such as Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Existential Therapy to guide sessions. His registration is with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP.

Sessions focus on listening carefully, helping people name what is happening, and testing out small changes that make day-to-day life more manageable. He will use practical CBT tools when thoughts and habits are getting in the way, and a client-centred stance to follow what matters most to the person in the room.

Mark also offers conversation about faith when it is wanted, including Biblical counsel on request. He makes this optional and works from the person’s own goals when faith is part of their therapy.

People who come to Mark are often looking for help with long-standing patterns, recent life changes, or difficult emotions such as anger and shame. He aims to support people to feel clearer about next steps and more able to cope with daily pressures.

How his approaches fit into online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following the person's concerns, helping them feel heard and understood so they can find their own solutions. This approach is useful for emotional issues like anger, grief and low self-esteem.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect and uses simple exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting. It is practical for stress, anxiety, addictions and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that suit their needs. That cooperative planning helps make sessions feel relevant and manageable.

Check which session formats are offered before booking, as format details are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people choose approaches and pacing that suit their day-to-day life, while working with a registered professional to adjust the plan as things change.
