About Marc
Marc Dalal is a BACP counsellor with eight years' professional experience based in the United Kingdom. He works with a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship problems, career pressure, addictions, grief and anger. He also supports people struggling with self-esteem, bipolar symptoms, ADHD and the strain of caregiving.
He starts from the idea that clients know themselves best and brings straightforward, conversational work to sessions. Conversations aim to make patterns clearer and to identify small, practical steps that reduce tension and improve responses. Sessions tend to be goal-focused and grounded in what feels doable day to day.
Marc uses client-centred listening to give people room to speak and be heard. He draws on narrative work to help people reframe difficult experiences and on solution-focused techniques to set simple, achievable goals. He also brings elements of Jungian and existential thinking when exploring meaning, identity and recurring patterns.
Sessions often look at how past relationships and family of origin issues shape current reactions. Practical skills may include breathing and grounding, communication strategies and planning changes to routines that trigger anger or anxiety. Therapy can also address intimacy issues, commitment worries and life transitions.
People considering sessions are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first appointment. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How therapeutic approaches inform online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on attentive listening and reflecting back what a person says. It helps people feel clearly heard and supports them in naming feelings and needs, which can reduce impulsive reactions. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and helps separate the person from the problem, useful when anger feels bound up with identity or past events. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasises concrete, short-term goals and small changes that build momentum, which is helpful when someone wants quick tools to manage stress and temper.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which approaches to emphasise and adapt those methods over time as progress and priorities change.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to use exercises between meetings and to practice communication strategies in daily life.
