The Journey That Lead Me To Becoming A Therapist

Hello I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself, my name is Mark, and I am a qualified psychotherapist and the founder of, Inertia Counselling Services. My path to becoming a therapist began with a life-altering event in 2005 when I experienced a serious accident. This challenging time led me to seek therapy for myself, and even though I was initially a sceptic, (thinking this would never work for me) it became a transformative experience. Therapy not only helped me navigate one of the most difficult periods of my life but it also inspired a deep passion within me to want to go forward and support others, on their journey's. Today, my personal journey has shaped and continues to shape my empathetic and client-focused approach, ensuring I provide a compassionate and safe space where individuals can feel heard and supported.

Qualifications And Specialisations

​I Have a Level 4 and Level 5 diploma in Psychodynamic and Systemic therapy, I bring a solid academic foundation to my practice. I am also certified by the Institute for Family Therapy (I.F.T.) and have additional training in children and young person therapy and psychosexual therapy. My work encompasses a range of mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, PTSD + CPTSD, grief, addictions, and fixations. I also specialise in addressing issues like peer pressure, phobias, and family conflicts. By drawing on diverse therapeutic techniques, I tailor each session to meet the unique needs of my clients.

Creating A Safe And Supportive Space

I fully understand how daunting it can be for a person to reach out and ask for help, especially when facing emotional challenges. Having once been on a client myself, I know and do realise the courage it takes for a person to take those first steps. Here at Inertia Counselling Services, I prioritise creating a warm, non-judgmental environment where clients can feel comfortable sharing their concerns. My trauma-informed care approach ensures sensitivity and understanding, particularly for those who have experienced difficult life events.

Personalised Plans

Here at Inertia Counselling Services, I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey that we will take together. So together, we will identify your goals and create a personalised plan that aligns with your needs. Combining techniques from psychodynamic, systemic, person-centred, C.B.T, Gestalt and integrative therapies, I aim to provide effective, tailored support. Whether working with individuals, couples, or whole families, my focus is on helping my clients achieve meaningful progress and long-term emotional well-being.

​I've been having sessions with Mark for over two years now and plan to continue going forward. He's a great listener but also encourages me to think through things myself, provides me with the space to understand myself better, and allows me to openly discuss my issues.
