About Me
Inertia Counselling Services: About Me – Mark
Firstly I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself, my name is Mark, and I am the founder of Inertia Counselling Services. I am a qualified Psychotherapist and I have a deep passion for helping individuals, couples, and families to navigate through whatever their lives might challenge them with and help them achieve a better emotional well-being.
My Therapy Journey
My path to becoming a therapist might look like a typical one as in 2005 I had accident that changed my life completely and that led me to seeking therapy for myself. This was not only a transformative experience for me personally, but one that not only helped me to navigate my way through what was by far the most difficult time in my life, but it also sparked a passion within me to try and help others on their own journeys. This personal experience helped shape the person that I am today and still to this day fuels my passion and commitment to creating a supportive and friendly space for my clients.
My Qualifications and Experience
I hold a Level 4/Level 5 deploma in psychodynamic and systemic therapy, along with additional training and qualifications in child/young person therapy. I’m also a certified practitioner through the Institute for Family Therapy (I.F.T) and have additional training in Psychosexual Therapy (P.S.T). Over the years, I’ve gained extensive experience in a broad range of mental health issues, including:
Addiction (Drug, Alcohol, and Sexual)
Anxiety and Depression
Abuse (Physical, Emotional and Sexual)
All types of O,C,D
I understand that seeking therapy can feel like a very daunting task at first. Having been on the client side myself, I’m very aware of the courage that it takes for a person to reach out and ask for that help. That’s why I prioritise creating a warm, judgement-free environment where you can feel safe and comfortable discussing whatever it may be that is concerning you.
