About Marc
Marc (Mac) McCormack is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 14 years of practice. He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, relationship and family issues, intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping problems, anger and coping with major life changes.
Marc uses straightforward, practical conversations to identify what is getting in the way day to day. He offers Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Client-Centred approaches, hypnotherapy and mindfulness-based work, and adapts the session focus to what the person prefers.
In sessions he checks what’s most pressing and picks methods that match the person’s goals. That might mean learning tools to manage stress and anger, working through traumatic memories with EMDR, or learning new ways to think and act with CBT. He keeps the pace appropriate to the person’s comfort and needs.
Marc has worked in the mental health field for many years and brings experience across a wide range of concerns, including attachment and abandonment issues, dissociation, chronic pain and caregiving stress, and matters related to kink and alternative sexual cultures. He answers messages as promptly as possible and asks for at least 24 hours notice for cancellations.
Sessions are provided in English and he accepts international clients. Before booking, confirm current session options and practical details to make sure they fit your routine and needs.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centred work focuses on listening and reflecting. It helps people who need a calm space to talk through how anger and stress affect their daily life. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, useful for tackling anger at work or in relationships.EMDR is a trauma-focused approach that can be used when past events continue to trigger strong emotional reactions. In an online setting it involves guided attention and careful pacing to work through distressing memories or responses.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marc will talk with the person about their goals and preferences, then suggest a mix of methods. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as progress is made.
The original profile does not state which online formats are used, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments around work, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people choose whether to meet with or without video depending on what suits them that day.
