About Marc
Marc (Mac) McCormack is a counsellor based in the North-west of the United Kingdom. He offers straightforward support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, sleep problems, low mood or relationship pain. Marc uses everyday language and practical steps so conversations are easy to follow.
With 14 years of experience and BACP registration, he draws on a range of therapeutic ways to help. Sessions focus on the person in front of him and what they want to change. He listens, clarifies what matters, and works with each person’s pace and preferences.
Marc uses approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, hypnotherapy and mindfulness alongside a person-centred style. That mix means he can offer structured techniques for difficult thoughts and habits, plus space to talk through painful memories and strong feelings.
In practice he helps people facing grief, addiction, body image concerns, chronic health challenges and many relationship or intimacy-related difficulties. He also supports those coping with trauma, eating and sleeping problems, anger and major life changes. He aims to identify small, achievable steps that fit into daily life.
Marc asks people to give at least 24 hours notice for cancellations and tries to respond to messages promptly. To begin, readers are invited to use the site’s Start Therapy flow to match and schedule a session according to the therapist’s availability.
How his approaches translate to online therapy
Marc uses Client-Centred methods and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in ways that suit online work. Client-Centred counselling focuses on listening, reflecting and helping a person clarify what matters to them; this can be done through conversation, guiding questions and shared planning. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) uses practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and routines, such as sleep habits or worry patterns, and can involve homework tasks and short skills practice between sessions.He also offers elements of Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, which addresses disturbing memories and strong emotional reactions using structured protocols and guided processing. These approaches can be adapted to remote sessions so people can work through traumatic memories and reduce their hold on day-to-day life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences and what feels manageable. That collaborative planning may change as progress is made.
The exact session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow focused work from wherever you are. It also makes short check-ins or skills practice between longer sessions more practical when needed.
