Dr Mark Stonestreet, BA

Clinical Psychologist

verified by TherapyRoute

“I am an experienced clinical psychologist working within a problem-solving framework, supporting individuals with both everyday life challenges and clinically defined psychological conditions.”

About Me

I have been in private practice for over twenty-five years, building extensive experience through clinical work and ongoing professional development. I work from a solutions-focused, integrative approach, supporting individuals and couples in managing life challenges, dilemmas, and transitions toward resolution. I draw on a brief therapy model that adapts to both immediate concerns and longer-standing difficulties, offering a flexible, problem-solving approach that is practical, sustainable, and responsive to the demands of everyday life.

Approach

I use assessment, focused problem-solving, mindfulness practices and trauma-informed pacing to clarify patterns, test small changes and track results together.
