About Marco
Marco Centonze is a counsellor with 16 years of experience. He offers a calm, person-centred approach and aims to help people find practical ways through stress, anxiety, depression, grief and relationship difficulties. He also supports concerns such as self-esteem, addictions, trauma and intimacy-related issues.
Sessions are offered in English and Marco works from the United Kingdom. Marco believes counselling is a journey that can bring discovery and change as well as being challenging.
Background and approach
He focuses on the person in front of him and helps them access their own strengths to resolve problems. The therapeutic relationship is central to his work and he aims to build a warm, straightforward connection that encourages honest reflection. Before becoming a counsellor Marco worked for many years in a high-pressure advertising agency in London.
That background taught him to understand complex situations and to communicate clearly. He draws on those skills when helping people make sense of difficult feelings and practical choices. Clients often bring issues such as bereavement, work stress, communication problems, parenting strain and eating or sleeping difficulties.
Marco also supports those facing career changes, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related concerns and challenges linked to adoption or attachment. He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Marco offers sessions using video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging and is open to working with international clients.

Approaches that guide online counselling and what they do
Marco primarily uses person-centred work which focuses on the individual's resources and aims to develop insight and self-directed change. This approach helps with low mood, anxiety, grief and issues where building a strong therapeutic relationship is important.He also draws on evidence-based techniques to address practical problems like sleep, eating issues and work-related stress. These techniques break concerns into manageable parts and teach concrete strategies that can be practised between sessions.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process. Marco will discuss different options with each person and decide together which methods fit best with their goals and daily life. That collaborative planning means the approach can shift as needs change.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different lifestyles. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit shorter updates, ongoing support between meetings and people who prefer writing. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into work, family or travel commitments.
