About Mark
BACP. 10 years' experience. Mark Byatt is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom who helps people with stress, anxiety, family matters, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression and addictions. He also supports clients facing relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, eating concerns, parenting strain, anger, career challenges and bipolar concerns.
Mark uses approaches listed in his profile including Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Existential Therapy. He aims to listen carefully and work with a person's concerns directly. Sessions focus on talking through what is happening now, looking at patterns, and considering practical steps that might help day-to-day functioning.
He has worked in private practice and with charitable organisations over a decade. That background contributes to experience with a broad range of life stressors and complex presentations, including abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, attachment difficulties, caregiver stress, codependency, dissociation, and separations.
Mark can also discuss integrating Biblical counsel if a client requests it; this is offered only on request. He works in English and accepts international clients. Fees vary by location and sessions are provided via a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How his approaches translate to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and creating an open space where a person’s thoughts can be discussed. It is useful for addressing low self-esteem, relational strain and emotional overwhelm by prioritising the client's perspective.CBT, or Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and tests practical changes. It can help with anxiety, depression, addictions and coping with life changes by offering small, structured steps to try between sessions.
Existential Therapy examines meaning, values and choices in life. It can be helpful when people face grief, career crossroads, long-term illness or feelings of emptiness and helps clarify what matters most to an individual.
Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and then agree a plan together. This will often mix elements from different approaches to suit the person’s situation.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. Registered or accredited professionals often offer sessions that suit quieter surroundings, lower bandwidth, or brief workplace breaks, so check which formats are available with the counsellor.
