Mark Maunsell-Thomas, NCPS

Mark Maunsell-Thomas is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. He works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, sleep problems and depression. He aims to offer an open, non-judgemental space where people can talk about difficult thoughts and feelings.

He often supports people facing relationship strain, grief, anger and challenges with self-esteem. Addictions and coping with life changes are also areas he addresses. He pays attention to compassion fatigue and the specific pressures that can leave someone feeling empty or overwhelmed.

Mark integrates practical tools into sessions and shares audio recordings to work with between meetings. These recordings are designed to make in-session work more effective and to speed up progress. He focuses on building resilience so people can manage the ups and downs of life more calmly.

His approach combines a few different methods, such as acceptance and commitment techniques, attachment-focused thinking and mindfulness practices. He uses these to help people get clearer on what matters to them and to try small, achievable changes. Sessions are collaborative and paced around the person attending.

Mark accepts clients from outside the UK and works in English. If someone is ready to begin, they are asked to use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling with him according to availability.

How his approaches work online and what to expect

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and commit to actions that fit those values. It teaches ways to live with difficult thoughts while still moving towards a more meaningful life. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns formed in close relationships and how they affect current feelings and reactions; it can help when relationship worries, abandonment or attachment issues cause pain. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus, which can help with anxiety, sleep and stress.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about their needs, goals and preferences and then try methods that match those things. That process is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, with fewer travel demands and more flexibility around timing. It also allows the use of audio recordings between sessions to reinforce learning and keep momentum between meetings. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available and how they might fit into your routine.
