About me

Hi I'm Mark, a Clinical Solution Focused Hypnotherapist & Psychotherapist.

My clinic is based in Ossett, Wakefield, UK.

I qualified as a ‘Solution Focused’ Hypnotherapist (DSFH), with the Gold Standard prestigious CPHT, school of Hypnotherapy in Leeds (100% class room-based training undergoing a minimum of 200 client hours and is accredited by the Professional standards Authority).

I also hold a Hypnotherapy in Practice Diploma (HPD), approximately only 20% of UK Hypnotherapists hold this Diploma.

I also hold a MPharm (Master of Pharmacy) from the University of Manchester University, giving me a unique insight into drugs, how they work and have helped clients to come off medication under the supervision of their GP.

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is very effective, as it incorporates 3 main components; ’Hypnosis’ or trance, this creates a relaxed state similar to meditation, you are more receptive to positive suggestion which enables the conscious and sub conscious to come together in focus to get the very best out of you.

The second component is Neuroscience and Physiology; Educating clients how the brain, mind, body works with respect to the stress response and tailoring this to the clients presenting issues. Gradually clients start to understand this, not only intellectually but emotionally, which is key-so you don’t slip back into negative cycles when confronted with triggers.

The Third main component is the Psychotherapy, everyone knows what they truly need to do, to get better and achieve their goals, you already have the tools, my part is to facilitate and guide you to get the 'how's', the secret ingredient of course being the clients firm commitment to sessions and intention to better themselves.

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is very effective and different to traditional psychotherapies. It is 'solution' based not 'problem' based and so you will not be re-living past traumas in the present moment but rather focusing on your positives and what you need to do to better yourself for a brighter future. I help facilitate and guide you to your answers.

If you would like to know more about how Solution Focused Hypnotherapy please browse my website (www.redsagetherapies.com) where you will find more in depth information and answers to FAQ's or if you would simply prefer a chat over the phone, I am more than happy to help, thanks, Mark.

I have helped many people with a wide array of issues.

'I honestly cannot recommend Mark highly enough. When I first reached out and sent him a message, he instantly called me because he could tell I was really struggling. This was on the Saturday between Christmas and New Year, yet he didn’t hesitate to make time for me, speak with genuine care, and offer me an appointment the very next day. At a time when I felt overwhelmed and panicked, his response made me feel heard, supported, and not alone. Since starting sessions with Mark, my anxiety and panic attacks have improved so much, and I feel noticeably calmer and more in control. He has a way of making you feel completely at ease and he is incredibly friendly, patient, and understanding, and it’s clear that he truly cares about the people he helps. You never feel rushed or judged, and every conversation feels safe and supportive. He’s also very easy to talk to and has a good sense of humour (which I really like, as it makes me feel at ease). Even after 2 sessions I feel like I have so many coping techniques and information that is helping me manage my anxiety. What really stands out about Mark is that helping people is clearly not “just a job” to him. He is genuinely passionate about what he does, and that comes through in every interaction. I’m so grateful for his support during such a difficult time, and I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone struggling with anxiety.'-Lisa L

'I went to see Mark to get help with stopping smoking. I have been a smoker for 15 years I was a bit sceptical about this working but had only ever heard good things so I went into this open minded and can honestly say I walked out of that room and haven’t had a cigarette since. I rarely even think about it and if I do my mind just seems to wonder elsewhere I don’t even have to fight the craving away! Would absolutely recommend if you’re looking to quit smoking.'

'I would highly recommend mark for hypnotherapy.. My son has been having hypnotherapy with mark for 4 sessions now to help him regulate his emotions while going through an ADHD assessment.. mark provided us with a great consultation on the first session to explain the science behind his work and how our brain reacts to stress and trauma. Mark has really gone above and beyond with looking into tools and resources to help with other difficulties my son has been having and has built up a great rapport for my son to feel safe and comfortable during his sessions. My son has his own hypnotherapy track he listens to on a night to help in between sessions and I’ve seen a huge difference in how he’s regulating his emotions. Mark has a very calming presence but is also great at what he does.'-Hannah S

'I had hypnotherapy with Mark to tackle a spider phobia and low confidence with driving, both of which had caused me problems for years.
I greatly benefited from these sessions, not only for the reasons why I wanted hypnotherapy but also in other areas of my life too.
Now spiders are no longer something that bother me (whereas previously I couldn’t even say the word!) and things I had avoided for years when driving are now part of normal life.
Mark has a great way of putting you at your ease, and I found it very helpful to understand how the brain works when it comes to fears and phobias - it explains a lot.
Mark is totally committed to helping people. I've been recommending him to everybody.
As they say, a life lived in fear is a life half lived.'-Julie H
