Mark Barren

I practice online and at therapy rooms in Queens Park, NW6. I currently have some availability across the week.  

You can message me from this page to enquire about availability and arrange a 15-minute, no-cost, no-obligation conversation about what brings you to therapy and what you might be looking for.

 Concessionary rates are available, please ask.

Hello, I'm Mark.

Life can feel tough at times and our feelings can begin to overwhelm us.  Perhaps you find yourself here because you are feeling anxious, or angry, or sad, and can't quite put your finger on why.  Perhaps you are finding relationships hard or are in a particularly challenging  stage of your life.

I offer a calm, holding and empathic space in which clients can create awareness and understanding of the feelings and emotions that hold them back and block how they would like to live their lives.  My holistic, relational and non-judgemental approach provides an environment for clients to explore the here-and-now challenges of life and reflect on them in the context of their full life experience.

I recognise that coming to therapy, particularly for the first time, can be a daunting experience and provide a safe, warm and confidential space for clients to explore the difficult moments and challenges they are experiencing in life.

As an Integrative counsellor I draw on a number of approaches and sessions are tailored to the needs of each individual client. I believe strongly in the values of autonomy, choice & responsibility and hold that we all have the internal resources to find solutions that can lead to meaningful change.

I hold a Diploma in Counselling from The Minster Centre and am currently studying for my MA in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy.

I am DBS checked and hold full liability insurance

I offer a free, 15-min initial phone or online session.  This gives us an opportunity to meet and for me to understand a little more about what brings you to therapy and what you might be looking for.
