Mark Nuttall , NCPS

Mark Nuttall is a registered psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom with more than 20 years of professional experience. He holds NCPS, a professional psychotherapy credential, and works with people facing a wide range of emotional and relational difficulties. He provides sessions to Better Help clients using the audio-visual format only and does not offer therapy by text or phone.

His practice centers on sustained dialogue that attends closely to a person’s thoughts, feelings and concerns. Conversation is used as the primary vehicle for exploring experience and creating psychological movement and change, while moments of quiet reflection are also offered to allow issues to be absorbed and considered. Areas of focus include stress and anxiety, intimacy-related concerns, coping with life changes, addictions, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem and depression.

Mark approaches therapy as an opportunity to investigate the self and one’s relations with others within professionally boundaried arrangements rather than as a collection of quick techniques. Some people seek short-term counselling for a specific problem while others engage in longer-term psychotherapy; the pace and length of work are determined by the individual and their needs. He supports clients who are ready to take courageous steps toward a more fulfilling and happier life.

Dialogue-driven care and flexible online sessions

Mark uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that emphasize sustained dialogue and reflective exploration. Dialogue-focused work involves talking through thoughts and feelings to uncover patterns and develop new ways of relating to oneself and others - it is well suited to issues such as anxiety, relationship difficulties and depression. Reflective exploration creates space for quieter consideration of problems, helping people weigh options and process emotional material, which can be especially helpful for grief, trauma-related reactions and life transitions. He also adapts the depth of work to fit short-term counselling needs or longer-term psychotherapy, depending on what the person requires.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client discuss goals, preferences and the pace of work to decide which techniques and focus areas best match the client’s situation, and they adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for many people - sessions can take place by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, allowing more flexible scheduling and easier access from home or other locations. For those with busy lives, mobility constraints or caregiving responsibilities, these options make it simpler to maintain continuity of care with licensed professionals while working toward meaningful change.
