About Mark
Mark Haase is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana with 20 years of clinical experience. He has worked across social services settings and with people facing depression, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, panic, and bipolar mood concerns. He offers counseling in English and Spanish and accepts international clients.
He began his career in direct care at a group home for adults with developmental disabilities. He then worked at a teen homeless shelter and in crisis counseling after Hurricane Katrina. He also provided services as a Licensed Mental Health Professional serving clients on Medicaid. Those roles shaped his practical approach to day-to-day problems.
In sessions he focuses on helping people name and express thoughts and feelings. He uses a mix of Client-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Enhancement styles. That means conversations are guided by what matters to the client, paired with practical skills for thinking and behavior.
He typically works with issues such as stress, addictions, eating and food-related problems, grief, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, sleep difficulty, and coping with life changes. He also addresses avoidant and dependent personality patterns, dissociation, isolation, and men’s issues among other topics.
People can expect straightforward conversations about goals and next steps. He believes counseling is challenging work and that consistent effort often leads to greater stability and maturity. Those who continue with the process often notice clearer thinking and more effective ways of handling distress.
How Mark blends approaches for online sessions
Mark works with Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in ways that translate naturally to remote work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the client says so people feel heard and can clarify their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy targets thought patterns and behaviors, offering clear tools and exercises for managing anxiety and panic. Choosing the right approach is collaborative. He will help identify which methods suit a person’s goals and preferences, and adjust techniques over time based on what is helpful. That means working together to pick practical steps and skills that fit daily life. The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow short check-ins when needed. For some concerns, CBT exercises and skill practice can be done between meetings and reviewed together during sessions, which helps translate therapy into everyday routines.Areas of expertise
