About Mark

Mark MacNicol is an accomplished mind coach, writer, and creator of Anonymous Drama, a unique form of drama therapy designed for individuals who typically have no interest in drama or therapy. With a background in writing for screen and theatre, Mark holds a Master’s degree in Television Drama Writing. His work is particularly focused on using the arts to support vulnerable and marginalized communities, especially within the recovery and justice sectors.

Through his Anonymous Drama program, Mark has pioneered an innovative approach that merges fiction with lived experience, helping participants explore personal issues in a safe, anonymous environment. This approach enables participants to process trauma without directly confronting it, which has proven highly effective in prisons, residential rehabilitation centers, and community groups.
