My name is Mark and I am a fully qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor specialising in Transactional Analysis.

Originally from New Zealand, I settled in the UK 20 years ago and now live near Kelso in the beautiful Scottish Borders, an hour south of Edinburgh.

I have previous experience working in a range of settings as a counsellor, including the NHS and a charity supporting cancer patients and their carers.

First I Listen

Often in life we've gone unnoticed, unrecognised or misunderstood. First, I prioritise deeply listening to you, creating a connection where you feel seen and heard. There's incredible strength in feeling accepted and understood for exactly who you are.

Whether we connect face-to-face or online, my focus remains on creating a genuine connection where your voice and experience matter.
