Mark made life better. I was having a hard time and he guided me to what seems to be the end of a long dark period. Without him I wouldn't be in a good place right now. Learnt a lot about myself
Testimonial for Mark
I'm hoping that ticking Strongly Agree for all sections doesn't come across as trying to give the answers I think you want as I firmly stand by them. My sessions with Mark have radically changed my life for the better. I came into my first session open to the process but while thinking it wouldn’t change much about my situation. In the last six months I have totally changed the way I think about my past, how I process life and my optimism for the future. The thing that I am thankful for is that Mark led me on a journey to find these answers within myself. This new energy isn’t dependent on another person or program, but an internal well I’ve learnt to draw from on a regular and ongoing basis. I sincerely thank Mark for the part he has played in my journey, and I know that my life is better because of it

Testimonial for Mark
Mark provided the insight, neutral position and charismatic personality that was critical in helping my partner and I to overcome the sticking points that we were struggling to overcome in our relationship. He helped my partner and I to becomes closer than we have ever been before by teaching us to communicate and understand each other. Mark helped us to save a relationship that may not have survived under the external pressures that we were facing as individuals and we are eternally grateful for his help. We would and have strongly recommended Mark to any couple wishing to learn to communicate more effectively and lovingly.
Testimony for mark
I am very grateful for the sessions I had with Mark. Before the session I was in a state of chaos and couldn't see my way out. He helped with realigning me back to my centre and the tools to help me operate from there. Even in chaos, I have more confidence to get through it
Testimony for Mark
I was given every opportunity to work through what I needed to. I never thought I’d get through so much in just three sessions. I have a new look on the things that I have hung on to way too long. I have found something in myself to take important steps
