About Mark

Mark Beiser is an experienced counselor who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, depression, relationship and family challenges, grief, and a wide range of emotional concerns.

Background and approach

He brings nearly three decades of clinical work to sessions and emphasizes a steady, practical approach that encourages small changes in behavior as a pathway to shifts in thinking and feeling. Mark earned a master's degree in counseling in 1995 and holds an Illinois LCPC credential granted in 2002 (IL LCPC 180.004446).

In sessions he aims to build trust through genuine, respectful engagement and uses a mix of evidence-informed tools such as mindfulness practice and thought regulation. Treatment often includes addressing motivation and confidence while applying methods drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness approaches, motivational interviewing, narrative techniques, and trauma-focused work.

His practice supports people coping with life transitions, compassion fatigue, chronic health concerns, mood disorders, and a variety of trauma-related and behavioral issues. Mark frames therapy as a collaborative process in which client goals guide the plan of care, and progress is pursued incrementally so changes are sustainable over time.

Approaches in Online Care and What They Help

Mark often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in online settings. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and stress management. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and acceptance skills to help reduce reactivity, manage intrusive thoughts, and support emotional regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the counseling process, and the therapist will collaborate with each person to determine which methods best match their goals and preferences. Clients and therapist work together to try techniques, review what helps, and adapt the plan over time to fit evolving needs.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible access to care. These formats make it easier to fit appointments into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and allow people in different locations within Illinois to participate without travel.
