Mark Prestney Accredited CBT Therapist

Hi, I'm Mark, I am a BABCP Accredited CBT Therapist working remotely and in-person, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

It’s fair to say that life from time-to-time may not go as we had hoped, and when this happens it can be challenging to see a way through it – like treading water or wading through treacle! Sometimes, we need a little help along the way. In doing so, a caring and attentive ear with a safe pair of hands often can help.

I am here to offer just that – an empathetic, considerate, respectful and confidential space to help enable you to manage better with the challenges being faced. I am a firm believer in the importance and the power of the therapeutic relationship, and how this can significantly improve one’s goal from therapy.

With a focus on the here and now, to facilitate change by giving you an enhanced understanding of the important relationship that occurs between our thoughts and emotions. By understanding this, better we can learn to adjust our thoughts and behaviours to become healthier, less unhelpful and less overwhelming.

I am enthusiastic about working with the wide range of issues in a pure CBT modality such as anxiety – generalised anxiety disorder, social anxiety, health anxiety, death anxiety, depression, post traumatic stress disorder, hoarding, obsessive compulsive disorder, panic disorder with/without agoraphobia, body dysmorphic disorder and phobias; including emetophobia.

Throughout my work, I offer an approachable, respectful, non-judgemental, caring and empathetic manner. If you would like to have a chat about how I can help, please call or email me and I will be happy to help.
