About Mark
Mark Callaway introduces himself as a counsellor who focuses on helping people facing difficult life moments. He works with issues such as addiction, trauma, relationship struggles, grief and anxiety. He uses practical conversation and structured approaches to help people make changes they can feel.
Mark has worked in counselling for 15 years and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He has broad experience across health and social care settings and has supported people through crisis, recovery and long-term change.
Background and approach
His style blends straightforward talking therapy with techniques drawn from cognitive behavioural work and acceptance and commitment therapy. He also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships shape current patterns. Hypnotherapy is part of his toolkit and is offered alongside other approaches when it fits a person’s goals.
Sessions can be short-term or longer-term depending on what someone needs. Mark aims to be adaptable in format and timing, offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging as options people can choose from. People who contact him usually start by saying what feels hardest right now.
From there he helps set clear goals and practical steps, while checking how those steps are working. This keeps the work focused and paced to each person’s situation.

Online support
How his approaches translate to online therapy
Mark combines hypnotherapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based work in practical ways. Hypnotherapy involves guided relaxation and focused attention to help people access different ways of thinking and respond to habits, which some find useful for issues like anxiety or sleep. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people identify values and take small committed actions despite difficult thoughts or feelings; it suits worries, stress and life transitions. Attachment-based work looks at relationship patterns and how early connections shape current trust and closeness problems, which can help with intimacy and family-related concerns.Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. He will talk through options and try methods that match a person’s goals and preferences. Sessions start with what feels most important and are adjusted as progress is made, so the plan can change if something else would work better.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer not to use audio or who want to fit short sessions into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy happening alongside work, care duties or other commitments.
