About Mark

Mark Beach is a Georgia-licensed professional counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship and family concerns, depression, trauma, grief, and related life challenges.

Background and approach

He combines empathy and respect with practical strategies to support clients navigating issues such as intimacy struggles, parenting and fatherhood questions, anger, career stress, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.

His background includes substantial clinical work with men in inpatient substance use treatment since 2016, which exposed him to a wide range of co-occurring concerns including family-of-origin issues, infidelity, guilt and shame, and veteran-related matters.

He favors a client-centered stance that privileges each person’s values and unique needs while drawing heavily on cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful patterns and develop concrete coping skills. Solution-focused techniques are also used to clarify goals and build actionable steps toward change.

Mark aims to tailor sessions so they align with individual circumstances and goals, offering a supportive, interactive experience that encourages growth and empowerment. Clients can expect a collaborative approach that honors courage and progress in small steps, with the goal of helping them set realistic objectives and move toward more fulfilling daily life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Access



Mark uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering concrete skills for anxiety, depression, addiction-related relapse prevention, and stress management. He also draws on a client-centered approach that emphasizes listening, empathy, and tailoring sessions to a person’s values and preferences, which can be especially helpful when addressing relationship, grief, or family-of-origin concerns.

Choosing how to work together is collaborative: the therapist will discuss goals, personal preferences, and day-to-day realities to determine which combination of approaches feels most useful. Together they review progress and adjust strategies so therapy remains aligned with the client’s needs and evolving priorities.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats allow clients to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, or travel, and make it easier to access a licensed professional from various locations within the therapist's practice area.
