Background and approach

He describes his style as pluralistic - that means he draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques rather than using just one method. Sessions are intended to be a respectful space where clients are listened to without judgement. In talks with clients Craig pays attention to what feels most useful for them.

He helps simplify tangled thoughts, supports emotional regulation and encourages small changes that build momentum. He often works on issues such as commitment and communication problems, control struggles, fatherhood concerns, family of origin matters and feelings of emptiness or isolation. People may come wanting to repair relationships with themselves or others, find life purpose, or cope after a loss or disruptive event.

Craig aims to help people practice new ways of being within therapy so those ways can carry over into everyday life. Sessions can be conversational and grounded, with a focus on making ideas practical and manageable. Craig asks open questions, reflects what he hears and helps clients set clear, realistic next steps.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online sessions

Craig often uses a mix of evidence-based techniques to support people with anxiety, stress and life transitions. One approach focuses on practical problem-solving and coping skills to reduce overwhelming thoughts and develop clearer next steps; this helps when racing thoughts or daily pressures feel unmanageable. Another approach centres on emotional regulation and pacing, offering simple strategies to calm strong feelings and improve steadiness during stressful moments.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Craig will listen to what matters most to the client, discuss options and adapt techniques as therapy progresses. The aim is to find methods that fit the client’s goals, temperament and everyday routine rather than imposing a single style.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help work through feelings. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging offer flexibility for quick reflections or ongoing support between appointments. These formats help people access regular, consistent work on anxiety and other concerns without travel time.
