Mark Maunsell-Thomas, NCPS

Mark Maunsell-Thomas is a UK-licensed therapist with five years of professional experience, offering focused support for stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, sleeping problems and depression. He works with a broad range of concerns including addictions, grief, anger, self-esteem and coping with life changes, and he provides additional support for issues such as attachment and abandonment, codependency, chronic illness and family difficulties.

Holding NCPS, a professional qualification in counselling and psychotherapy, Mark aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored honestly. He emphasizes the courage involved in seeking change and positions himself as a supportive partner in each client’s journey toward greater fulfillment and resilience.

Sessions are complemented by recordings that clients can use between meetings to reinforce progress and make the most of therapeutic time. This blended approach is intended to accelerate change by combining in-session work with practical tools and exercises for everyday life. Mark focuses on equipping people with strategies to manage setbacks and navigate the inevitable ups and downs with increased strength and adaptability.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Mark brings together Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy, along with mindfulness practices, to support people coping with emotional and relational difficulties. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and develop practical strategies for accepting uncomfortable thoughts and feelings while taking meaningful action toward a valued life, which can be useful for anxiety, depression and stress-related concerns.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores early relationship patterns and how they influence current connections, helping clients address abandonment, attachment issues and recurring relationship struggles by building awareness and safer interpersonal responses. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and grounding techniques that reduce rumination and improve emotional regulation, making it easier to manage sleep problems, stress and impulsivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Mark works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences. He tailors interventions and offers practical exercises to integrate work between sessions.

Online therapy with Mark is available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for people with busy schedules or who live at a distance. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access support in ways that fit daily life, while retaining the structure and therapeutic focus of in-person work.
