Therapy & Workshops
Hi, I’m Mark.
I offer psychotherapy for individuals and couples, in Angel, London or online. I also run workshops and classes.
Whether you’re considering therapy or just want time to make sense of things, there’s no need to have it all figured out.
On top of talking therapy, I sometimes include a somatic, body-based approach. Noticing your breath, or what your body does without you meaning it to, can often show us what matters. Nothing is required, and you set the pace.
I’m a UKCP-registered psychotherapist, somatic practitioner, and community artist, with years of experience across NHS & community settings.
Three ways in
01 Therapy
Psychotherapy
In therapy we might talk through difficult experiences, or pay attention to what you feel in your body. Often something unexpected comes up that changes how a problem looks. I’m not here to fix you. When something keeps happening in your life, there’s usually something useful in it, and we take the time to find out what.
You might be coming with something that is hard to put your finger on, for example:
- relationship patterns that keep repeating, or feeling stuck as a couple
- feeling cut off from yourself, others, or your body
- anxiety, low mood or inner conflicts that won’t ease
- moments when you snap, shut down, or feel overwhelmed
- a wish to understand yourself more deeply
How we might work together
My approach is based on Process Oriented Psychology, which pays attention to what’s happening in the moment, in words and in the body. It also draws on my clinical practice in the NHS and my qualifications, studies and research in Embodiment and Wellbeing.
In our sessions we might explore thoughts, feelings, body experiences, dreams or patterns in relationships, following what feels most alive or meaningful.
Awareness of the dynamics of power and privilege, in our society and in the therapy room, is an important underpinning of my work. I particularly welcome people from marginalised or racialised groups, and I actively work on my awareness of my own socialisation, actions and privileges through training and supervision.

02 Workshops
Workshops & Classes
I run workshops and classes on dance & movement, the body and how we relate to each other, for the public and for therapists and other practitioners. I’ve been teaching for 20 years, and my work draws on Process Oriented Psychology, Body-Mind Centering® and Contact Improvisation. See below for upcoming workshops, or find more info on the workshops page.

Somatics and Creative Practices
Somatic practices pay attention to the body from the inside: how you move, feel and respond. That can mean slowing right down and sensing yourself, or moving in a more dynamic way. In therapy this might be simply noticing your breath, or finding ways to ground yourself. In classes and workshops there can be movement, optional touch and exploring embodied anatomy in practice.
I trained in Body-Mind Centering® (BMC), a study of the body through movement, touch, voice and anatomy, and I regularly teach on its official trainings in the UK through Embody-Move UK and abroad.
Alongside this I teach and organise Contact Improvisation, an improvised dance form where people move in contact and share weight, including CI@Goldsmiths and the London Contact Festival.
I hold an MA in Community Arts (Goldsmiths) and have performed internationally. More on my About page.
