About Craig

Craig Walker is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to help people find their own answers. He draws on 13 years of experience to support those dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction and major life changes. Craig aims to help people rediscover fulfilment and enjoyment in everyday life.

He works in a straightforward way. Sessions can include talking, sitting in silence or simply letting emotions out, depending on what someone needs in the moment. Craig says he will stay alongside people during difficult times, offering compassion, gentle challenge and practical guidance.

Over more than a decade he has helped people find clarity around relationships, grief, career questions and issues such as trauma and depression. He also supports people with intimacy-related concerns, anger, self-esteem and neurodiverse challenges like ADHD. His practice includes focus on coping after disasters and other sudden disruptions to life.

Craig blends client-centred counselling with practical methods drawn from cognitive behavioural work and mindfulness. He also uses motivational interviewing and existential ideas to help people think about values, meaning and change. The mix aims to be flexible, matching the approach to what someone needs right now.

Craig holds NCPS as a credential and works with people in the United Kingdom and internationally. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and the process begins by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to availability.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Craig uses client-centred counselling to start. That means sessions focus on the person’s experience and what they want to explore, with the therapist following their lead and offering support. Cognitive behavioural therapy adds a practical layer, helping people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try new behaviours to reduce stress and anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Craig works collaboratively to decide what fits best, taking into account a person’s goals and preferences. That might mean spending more time listening at first, then introducing mindful exercises or goal-setting when it feels helpful.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel or by choosing a quicker check-in when time is limited. It can also allow people to use mindfulness practices between sessions and bring reflections back to the conversation. Registered or accredited professionals often tailor pacing and tools to suit each person’s day-to-day routine and goals.
