trauma recovery, experiential therapy, addiction healing

LICENSED PSYCHOTHERAPIST · CERTIFIED EXPERIENTIAL COACH

Mark Noonan

Mark brings a unique balance of exuberance, compassion, and steadfast commitment to the work with his clients. With over six years in the helping professions, Mark intuitively supports integrating profound transformations with the more nuanced aspects of ‘doing the work’ in daily life. He specializes in supporting clients to understand and experience resolution with the underlying patterns of behaviors, thoughts, and feelings that drive their relationships, work, and internal lives. 

Mark is trained in Psychodrama, EMDR, Brainspotting, and IFS, while approaching all of the work through his unique blend of mindfulness and somatic based interventions.This means his work is focused on the present moment, making the unseen patterns and driving forces apparent, working from a place of safety and containment, and empowering his clients to be the authors of their own resolution. All of his work is experiential in nature, guiding his clients to experience the felt sense of healing rather than simply talking about it. He is incredibly passionate about the ways that early childhood development impacts adult relationship dynamics, whether it be attachment wounding with caregiver figures, ruptures in social relationships with peers, or significant trauma.

Prior to contracting with Onsite, Mark worked as Primary Therapist at Milestones, Onsite’s Residential Trauma Program, and Sobriety House, Colorado’s oldest residential drug and alcohol treatment program. Mark has extensive experience working in residential and community based settings with addictions, working with an incredibly diverse client-base. Prior to the field Mark has worked in outdoor adventure sports and hospitality, giving way to his ability to weave in safety, passion, comfort and attunement with the services he provides.

Whether you are looking to find resolution from significant trauma, heal core family wounds, feel peace from addictive processes, address and adapt seemingly stuck relationship patterns, or find more meaning and purpose in your life, Mark will provide a collaborative, gentle, and truly healing container to ‘do the work!’

THE PHILOSOPHY

The wounds we experience have been handed down to us. Through our families, through systems, through centuries of being told that certain bodies, certain feelings, certain ways of knowing are not appropriate. The identified ‘problem behavior’ is often an adaptation to challenging experiences, including trauma, hurt, and oppression. Here we experience what true resolution feels like, not just talk about what is going wrong.

This work belongs to everyone, we believe healing is not a luxury. Sliding scales, community rates, and access structures are critical fabric within the financial model of Mark’s practice. We continue adapting to the return to an inclusive, community based way of healing and serving.
