Mark Wagemaker, LPC

Mark Wagemaker is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 18 years of clinical experience helping people who want to create meaningful change in their lives. He focuses on trauma and post-traumatic stress, and commonly addresses anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief, addictions, and other concerns that disrupt daily functioning. He often works with clients who experience physical symptoms without a clear medical cause, or who carry the effects of adverse childhood experiences that may not have felt like outright abuse but still impact well-being.

For trauma work he uses Accelerated Resolution Therapy and hypnotherapy as primary tools, and integrates approaches such as trauma-focused therapy, somatic techniques, emotionally-focused methods, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, psychodynamic perspectives, and client-centered care. He also supports people with issues related to sleep, parenting, intimacy and sexuality, career and life purpose, compassion fatigue, and first responder or veteran-related challenges.

Mark treats each person as an individual on their own path and aims to help clients discover practical ways forward. His practice combines formal training, professional experience, and personal values rooted in Christian traditions to inform his therapeutic approach. He offers flexible session formats and accepts international clients who seek support across a range of life transitions and emotional concerns.
