Getting to know Mark Bigley

Welcome! Thank you for taking the time to review my biography and for investing in your health and happiness. Life is a wonderful gift, yet for many, this gift can seem more like a painful struggle than an experience of fulfillment and joy. Often, especially in our earlier years, we experience conflict that leaves us confused, anxious, depressed, alone, and filled with self-doubt. When these unfortunate events affect us, we may not have the tools or experience to cope. Self-acceptance can fade into self-doubt and sometimes affect our ability to socialize with others. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Wayne State University and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I also have a graduate certificate in counseling with marriages and families. My pastoral counseling degree focused on psychodynamic counseling in the context of spirituality. Additionally, I have a background in biofield therapy and energy medicine, which is especially helpful for anxiety and depression and can quiet racing thoughts. The Emotional Freedom Technique and EMDR have been effective tools I use to release anxiety. I have trauma training in supporting individuals suffering from PTSD. Having received education over several decades in grief counseling, I have worked with those affected by grief and loss, including nine years in hospice care. After booking, Tava Health will text and email you a link to complete registration and join your video therapy session.
