About Marcus

Therapy that treats you as a person, not a diagnosis.

I came to counselling after a decade in corporate life, where I watched capable people quietly fall apart while insisting they were fine. I retrained, and I’ve spent the fifteen years since sitting with people through anxiety, grief, trauma, and change.

My practice is grounded in person-centred therapy, with EMDR and CBT where they help. You set the pace and the agenda; my job is to make the room safe enough for the real work.

2001 to 09

Corporate life and the turn

A decade in operations roles taught me more about stress and burnout than any textbook. I left to retrain.

2009 to 11
