Remote sessions and therapeutic methods
Mark uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify personal values and practice openness to difficult thoughts and feelings rather than avoiding them. In this collaborative style, a client and therapist identify meaningful goals and small actions that align daily life with those priorities.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy is offered to build concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Sessions can include guided practice and problem-solving to expand coping options when strong emotions, impulsivity, or relationship conflicts arise.
Attachment-Based Therapy is used to explore relational patterns and how early bonds influence current intimacy and communication. This approach is suitable for those who want to examine longstanding dynamics and develop new ways of relating. Remote care is available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate different preferences for connection and pacing.
