About Mark

Mark Silla is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) with 17 years of experience. He centers the person rather than a diagnosis and helps people who feel stuck find clearer direction. Mark frames sessions as a chance to discover what lies behind the main problems and to make practical changes that matter in daily life.

He takes an eclectic approach and adapts methods to each person’s needs. That means the work might include talking through thought patterns, practicing new behaviors, or using focused techniques to process difficult memories. Sessions are collaborative: the therapist and client decide together which tools to try and how to measure progress.

Mark has helped people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, addiction, anger, and low self-esteem. He also helps with relationship and intimacy concerns, career decisions, bipolar-related challenges, and coping with life changes. He explains therapeutic steps in straightforward language and keeps goals concrete so people know what to expect.

People can expect calm, direct conversation that aims to find useful next steps. Mark balances listening with practical exercises that can be used between sessions. His style is flexible, and he adjusts pace and focus as needs change.

He practices in New Mexico and works in English. Prospective clients who want to begin are invited to confirm current session options before booking and to pick a path that fits their life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a collaborative relationship. In sessions the therapist mirrors concerns, asks questions to clarify values, and supports clients as they decide next steps; this approach helps when someone needs space to explore feelings and priorities.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. Online CBT often includes short exercises and homework to test new ways of thinking and acting, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose methods that match goals, preferences, and how someone responds in the first sessions. That collaboration helps tailor pacing and techniques as progress unfolds.

Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online work useful because it can fit into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow for a steady rhythm of appointments. Online sessions can also make it easier to continue therapy during life transitions, while letting the therapist assign short exercises that fit into everyday routines.
