About Marco
Marco Schilling is a psychotherapeutic counsellor who draws on person-centred and psychodynamic ideas to help people make sense of their feelings. He offers a calm, compassionate space for talking through current problems and longer-standing issues. Sessions are held in English and German and Marco can talk about sleep and rest concerns alongside other worries.
He focuses on everyday struggles like anxiety, stress, depression and grief. He also helps with relationship difficulties, parenting strain, career changes and struggles with self-esteem. Marco can support people dealing with trauma, addiction and anger, and he also works with issues linked to attachment and abandonment.
Marco has four years' experience working in the NHS and as a bereavement counsellor. He has also worked as a support worker with people who have autism and learning difficulties. This practical background shapes his straightforward, down-to-earth approach in sessions.
His way of working is gentle and collaborative. He listens first, then helps people explore how past experiences affect present patterns. Sessions aim to increase self-awareness and offer new ways of coping, paced to each person's needs.
Marco trained as a psychotherapeutic counsellor and holds a CPCAB Diploma. He is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, often abbreviated as BACP.

How his approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and the person’s own strengths; it helps when someone needs a non-judgemental space to talk about sleep, stress or relationship worries. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how past experiences shape present patterns, which can be useful when sleep problems seem linked to longstanding anxiety or unresolved loss.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marco will discuss goals and preferences and suggest whether a more present-focused or more exploratory way of working makes sense. That decision is made together and can change as sessions progress.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions more easily into a busy day and removing travel time so people can use brief check-ins when needed. The biography does not list specific session formats here, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it simpler to keep continuity while juggling work, childcare or other commitments.
