About Marc
Marc (Mac) McCormack is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 14 years of practice. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, depression and addictions. He also helps with relationship and intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, anger, and coping with life changes.
Marc uses a mix of practical talking methods and structured techniques. He commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. He also offers client-centred work to focus on what matters to the person and EMDR for processing traumatic memories when appropriate.
Sessions aim to be straightforward and task-focused. Marc asks about the issue, looks at patterns that keep it going, and tries small experiments to build new habits. He encourages clear goals and reviews progress so people can see what changes and what still needs work.
Communication between sessions is part of his routine, and he aims to reply to messages promptly. He requests at least 24 hours' notice for cancellations. The practical details of session length and format should be checked before booking.
Marc accepts international clients and offers work in English. He uses a subscription payment model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online booking flow.
How his approaches work for online sessions
Marc often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy online to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioural experiments. CBT sessions focus on clear goals, homework between sessions, and practical steps that can be discussed over video or phone. Client-Centred Therapy is also part of his work and involves listening carefully to the person's priorities and building sessions around what they want to address. EMDR is offered for trauma-focused work; where appropriate, EMDR techniques are adapted so processing can be guided safely in conversation.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. He discusses options, explains what each method involves, and agrees a plan that fits the person's needs and preferences. Decisions about which method to use are reviewed as work progresses rather than fixed at the start.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm the available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work or caring responsibilities, allow shorter check-ins when useful, and remove travel time. Many people find these practical benefits help them maintain steady progress alongside daily commitments.
