Experiences from previous clients and couples

Communicating with Mark was easy and smooth. He is clever, competent, and knew where things were going. I always felt safe with him and could trust him completely. After our first session online, I purchased a bundle offer, which made therapy affordable for me.

Our experience with Mark as our couple’s therapist began over 5 years ago. With the choices we had in made life, the pressures of a young family and demanding careers - we had spent too little time investing in making our relationship work. Mark helped us with that. We combined online sessions with sessions in person, which worked really well.

As a gay man, I have been brought up in a society that tells me that I am less worthy because of my sexual orientation. Mark helped me understand how my anxious attachment style developed from that upbringing, and how to improve my current life.

Before we started seeing Mark, we faced challenges in our marriage, as we both have been married before. We had these difficulties with us from our past, and then with our conflicts with one another. We started seeing Mark about 3 months ago, we are still doing the work, and we wish to give him our recommendation. We chose to see him in Svendborg, close to where we live, and very convenient for us.

Whilst sessions with Mark can be painful at times, they are often inspiring and enlightening. Mark quickly identified the core of our issue and helped us grow as individuals by inspiring us. We are glad we purchased a couples course.

I had been thinking of starting therapy for several years. Primarily due to my irrational anxiety, but also because I knew I had some unprocessed childhood traumas. Mark was recommended to me through my network, and I am glad I started.

I was referred by our second couple’s therapist to Mark as our third couples therapist. My husband and I were struggling to communicate for years. We held regular weekly sessions for about 6 months with Mark, and I strongly recommend the work. Mark's approach helped us both see the shadow sides of each other, and we needed that to heal ourselves.

A friend of mine referred me to Mark about 2 years ago. I have worked on and off with Mark since. Back then, there were some major life events happening, at once, so I needed some professional help with my sexual identity. I used the 10 clip vouchers throughout, and I really liked booking my own sessions online at my own pace.

Mark is very approachable and straight forward. He gives concrete advice when I am struggling, and sometimes even shares anecdotes from his own life that are relevant to what I am going through. I recommend him to others because he gives my hands-on tasks and also space, when I need both.

We wholeheartedly recommend Mark. Both of us have had previous experiences with other psychotherapists. We both agree that Mark is THE psychotherapist and couples counsellor who has helped us the most. He instinctively hits the mark and is excellent at ensuring both sides feel equally heard. While the sessions can be challenging at times, they are often inspiring and enlightening. Mark is a no-nonsense couples and individual psychotherapist who gets straight to the point during sessions. He is caring and has created a safe space for us to open up fully.
