Mark Watts Counselling Services in Victoria, British Columbia
Welcome to Mark Watts Counselling Services in Victoria, British Columbia. My name is Mark Watts, and I specialize in professional counselling and hypnotherapy to support individuals through various life challenges.
With a deep passion for helping others, I transitioned from a career in technology to focus on counselling over a decade ago. My goal is to assist clients in transforming their lives from suffering to fulfillment. I offer support for issues such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, anger management, grief, and relationship problems.
My Therapeutic Approach: I utilize a combination of talk therapy and experiential therapy, employing methods that deliver proven results. My approach is centered on creating a warm and accepting environment where clients can explore their concerns and experiences. The strength of the therapist-client relationship plays a crucial role in the success of therapy, and I am committed to providing a safe, empathetic, and non-judgmental space for change.
Therapeutic Style and Sessions: My Transpersonal therapeutic style reflects a belief in the holistic nature of individuals. I combine compassion with a strong belief in your ability to heal and resolve issues. Therapy can range from addressing short-term goals to deeper life exploration, depending on your needs. The number of sessions required will vary based on your specific goals and the depth of exploration desired.
Therapeutic Interventions: I draw on a range of interventions including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), emotional release techniques, relaxation meditations, and goal setting. My approach is holistic and tailored to your individual needs. If you have any questions or need clarification about our work, please feel free to ask.
Team Approach: I am open to coordinating with other professionals such as your physician, chiropractor, naturopath, or massage therapist, if requested. This team approach ensures comprehensive care and support.
Intake Form: An Intake Form helps to understand your needs and goals for therapy better. I use a collaborative interview style to complete this form, allowing for a detailed exploration of what is most meaningful to you.
Possible Reactions to Therapy: Therapy can evoke a range of emotions and reactions. It is common to experience resistance or mixed feelings as you work through significant changes. I am here to offer support and advocate for your self-care throughout the process, recognizing its importance in your healing journey.
