Mark Lowman

Mark Lowman is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage anger, anxiety and stress. He offers a calm, respectful space where clients can talk through intense feelings and practical pressures. Mark aims to combine listening with straightforward tools people can use day to day.

He uses a range of practical approaches drawn from cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), client-centred work and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). These help with anxious thoughts, low self-esteem, intrusive memories and overwhelming emotions. Mark also draws on elements of dialectical behaviour therapy and emotionally-focused work when they suit the client.

Mark has three years of clinical experience and holds NCPS and BACP credentials. He brings prior experience from professional and corporate settings, so he understands workplace pressure, team dynamics and career-related stress. That background shapes how he helps people manage performance anxiety and burnout.

Sessions tend to combine listening, reflection and simple exercises to use between meetings. People often come for help with panic, obsessive behaviours, relationship difficulties, intimacy struggles, addiction-related concerns and the fallout from trauma. He also supports people working through divorce, grief and isolation.

Sessions are delivered in English from the United Kingdom. International clients are not currently accepted. Prospective clients are invited to follow the site process to match with Mark and arrange a suitable time to begin work together.

How Mark’s approaches work for online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them. It supports people to choose actions that match their values even when emotions are strong, which can help with anger and avoidance. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to reduce unhelpful thinking and build new habits. Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions, offering empathic listening and reflection so people can find their own solutions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Mark will talk with each person about goals, past experiences and current needs, and then suggest approaches that fit. He adjusts the mix of techniques as therapy progresses, so sessions stay practical and relevant to day-to-day life.

The practical benefits of online sessions can include easier fitting of appointments around work or family life, the option to reduce travel time, and flexibility to choose a quieter setting or a shorter check-in when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can use online work to focus on skills, reflection and emotional regulation in ways that suit many people’s routines.
