Mark has been incredibly helpful in our sessions, holding the space kindly and gently but still being helpfully directive when needed. He has helped me to connect different threads of thoughts and to see synchronicities and patterns in what I’m saying. I feel I’ve made real progress in just a couple of months with issues that had been really dragging on for a long time. He is a great counsellor.

Mark is the first therapist in my life, so I have no reference point for comparison. What I can say is that Mark is very experienced in providing support. He is mellow and gentle when he needs to be, completely open and accepting of whatever comes out of my mouth. I've noticed (believe I've noticed) that he's fine tuning his approach depending on my emotional state and state of my mind. He is choosing right moments when to push for more and when to pull back, when to share his experience and when to entice me to talk more and self-explore the issue. At times I thought that he is saying things he thought I wanted to hear, but I guess he's just working on my need to get the right amount of positive feedback to open up to hear/understand things about myself that I need to improve and work on. All in all - in few sessions we had, Mark has learned things about me that not even my closest friends know. That is providing opportunities to heal and fulfill my full potential, to break free from weights of the past. Thank you Mark!

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Mark has helped me over recent months to tackle both issues that needed my immediate attention, as well as others that have been lingering in the background. I have got much more out of the therapy sessions than I expected was possible.
Mr. Walker is extremely empathic and calm. He is a great listener and conveys a great calmness. I am deeply grateful I have found him, because he really helps me through a difficult situation.
So far happy with everything
Dr Mark is deeply caring, very experienced, and a warm human being.
