Mark Lowman , NCPS, BACP

Mark Lowman is a therapist based in the United Kingdom who works with people experiencing anxiety, panic attacks, OCD, stress, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, and workplace pressure. He brings a warm, supportive, and practical style to sessions, creating space to be heard while also offering concrete tools clients can use between meetings. He is registered with professional bodies - BACP and NCPS - which reflect his training and standing as a practising psychotherapist.

Mark draws on a broad mix of methods, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), person-centered approaches, internal family systems (IFS), psychodynamic ideas, and mindfulness-based techniques to address anxious thinking, intrusive memories, and intense emotions. He has also trained in the Rewind Technique for trauma and PTSD and works with people seeking confidence building, recovery from burnout, career-related stress, intimacy concerns, or help with compulsive sexual behaviours.

Before training as a therapist, Mark spent years in professional and corporate roles, so he understands the pressures of performance, difficult team dynamics, and feeling stuck in a career. He offers a calm, respectful space to explore self-criticism, repeated relationship patterns, and emotional overwhelm, helping clients make sense of their experiences and move toward greater balance and confidence.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care

Mark draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours; CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems because it focuses on practical strategies and skills. He also uses client-centered therapy, offering an empathetic, non-directive environment where the client’s own experiences and values guide the work and help build self-understanding and confidence. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) complements these approaches by encouraging acceptance of difficult feelings while helping clients clarify personal values and take committed action toward a meaningful life.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Mark works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions can blend techniques so that therapy remains responsive and personalised.

Online therapy with Mark is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to access support from home. This flexibility helps people continue care during life transitions, work commitments, or when attending in-person sessions would be difficult, while still working with licensed professionals and therapists to progress toward their goals.
