I recently witnessed him assisting a friend of mine who had experienced both physical and emotional trauma, and had been hospitalised in ICU for a period of time etc. I observed and recognised Marks’ emotional intelligence being able to tune in succinctly to empathically question to seek to understand how he could best support my friend in need. It was impressive to witness Mark transformational abilities as he adapted his interventions as required with language and techniques, building rapport with my friend. He created an environment where my friend felt safe and heard, in such a short space of time. This impressive transformation occurred within one session; Mark's practical techniques were really well received, and I noticed a significant shift in my friends’ demeanour. His stress and anxiety levels appeared significantly lower. He also became more receptive to the feelings of much-needed clarity and direction and that was very impressive to witness. Since that meeting, I have met with my friend twice and he is doing well and has both times said that he is very grateful to Mark. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Mark as a versatile holistic coach.
Acceptance & Commitment Therapy with Mark (Plus strengths session)
15th January 2023 I was looking to find a coach that could offer a different and insightful approach to guiding and mapping out my strengths, personality, skills and attributes in supporting my career options. I was facing a cross road in my life, needing to support my mental and physical capabilities. I wanted to include all aspects of my personality and work ethic incorporating a healthy work balance, but needed direction. My introduction to Mark was through a friend and was highly recommended to his style of coaching. I instantly felt comfortable with Mark’s warm personality and non- judgemental, reassuring approach. I felt I was appearing indecisive and not confident with what I was looking for. He immediately put me at ease, strategising my personality traits and skill set, gently guiding me in a series of mapping and brainstorming ideas, clearly gaining the opportunity to see beyond my perceived limitations. Mark was able to identify my goals, harness my strengths and capabilities that I myself did not recognise, giving me the confidence to reach higher. Mark is passionate about his approach to wellbeing and I feel strongly about his dedication to helping others to achieve this sense of personal contentment. I was transitioning from an aged care role to mental health support. I have now been a mental health support worker for the past year, working my own hours, finding a healthy home and work balance that totally suits my lifestyle. I am healthier in the mind and body with less stress, having found the tools needed to sustain long-term lifestyle changes. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Mark and wish him all success for his future endeavours.
25th January, 2023 I have had the pleasure and benefit of seeing Mark for about 10 sessions now, over a period of nearly four years. Through that time period despite some massive challenges in my life, I feel I have progressed and gained a better understanding of myself and my relationship with the universe. Mark has a natural ability to recognise and develop people's strengths. With his warm and gentle, heart centred approach, he helps you to feel calm and connected. Mark's vast spiritual and quantum knowledge, has enabled him to develop easy to understand practical exercises. I have used and incorporated these techniques into my everyday life and they have helped me to feel lighter and more joyful in my day to day. I definitely have more confidence and a healthier outlook on life as a result of my sessions with Mark. Mark will bring out the best in you and I have no hesitation in recommending him.
