About Mark

Mark Lowman is a psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom. He works with people dealing with anxiety, stress, low self-esteem and relationship difficulties, including jealousy and intimacy-related concerns. He aims to offer a warm, practical space where people can feel heard and begin to make small, steady changes.

Mark uses straightforward tools in sessions. He draws on cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns. He also uses client-centred methods to prioritise listening and the person's own goals. These approaches are used alongside techniques aimed at managing strong emotions and distress.

Before training in psychotherapy, Mark spent several years in corporate roles. That background gives him an understanding of workplace pressure, team dynamics and career-related stress. He often helps people who feel stuck in work or who are coping with burnout and performance anxiety.

Sessions focus on practical steps as well as reflection. Common themes include coping with intrusive thoughts, rebuilding confidence, managing compulsive behaviours, and repairing communication habits in relationships. He works to keep therapy relevant to everyday life, with tools people can try between sessions.

Mark is registered with NCPS and with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He offers sessions in English and does not accept international clients at this time.

Approaches you might work with online

Mark often uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which helps people notice and test unhelpful thoughts and then try different behaviours. CBT can be useful for anxiety, stress, intrusive thinking and low mood.

He also draws on client-centred therapy, which places the person's experience at the centre and uses active listening to help people find their own solutions. This approach suits those who want a supportive, non-directive space to make sense of feelings and choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and recommend ways of working that suit you. That choice is collaborative and can change as your needs evolve.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the session formats available before booking since specific formats are not listed in the profile. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to use video, since some formats may work better with audio only or a brief phone call, depending on what is offered.
