Mark Dexter

Mark Dexter is a counsellor with eight years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom. He holds BACP accreditation, and he meets people where they are to talk through stress, anxiety, sleep concerns and other difficult issues. He aims to make the first step feel manageable and supportive.

Mark focuses on practical conversations that draw on the client’s own strengths. He helps people who are dealing with trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, motivation problems and major life changes. He also supports those facing relationship or intimacy-related worries, grief, addictive behaviours and eating or sleeping concerns.

His practice uses methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try out different ways of responding. He also draws on Attachment-Based and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy ideas to look at emotional reactions and relationship patterns. Client-Centred Therapy shapes how he listens and responds in sessions.

Sessions focus on small, usable steps. Conversations might include spotting thought patterns, building coping skills, and working on routines that support better sleep and daily functioning. The aim is to make change feel achievable rather than overwhelming.

Mark works in English and welcomes people from different places, including international clients. He sees the therapeutic relationship as a collaboration, with the person’s priorities guiding the pace and focus of the work.
