About Craig

Craig Still, NCPS, offers a pluralistic counselling approach that centres the client's own goals and preferences. He provides a calm, non-judgemental space where adults can talk through difficult feelings and life changes. Craig aims to be warm and gently challenging while respecting each person’s experience.

He has four years of post-qualification experience working with adults from many backgrounds. Common concerns he addresses include stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, and issues around intimacy and relationships. He also supports people facing career changes, parenting strains, addiction concerns, and codependency challenges.

Craig blends different ways of working to match what each person finds helpful. He draws on methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside attachment-focused and client-centred approaches. This mix lets him offer brief focused work or longer-term support, depending on the situation.

In sessions he listens first and follows what matters to the client. Conversations focus on practical steps as well as understanding patterns that keep problems repeating. He often helps people notice values, try small behavioural changes, and build more helpful ways of relating to themselves and others.

People who book with Craig can expect collaborative planning, regular check-ins about progress, and flexible pacing. If someone wants to begin, the usual next step is to use the Start Therapy button and follow the short matching process to arrange a first session.

How Craig adapts therapy approaches online

Craig often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people identify what matters most to them and take small actionable steps towards those values. ACT is useful for anxiety, low mood, and difficulties where unhelpful thoughts get in the way of living a valued life.

He also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people notice relational habits, understand where they come from, and try new ways of relating in present-day situations.

Finding the right approach is usually a collaborative process. Craig will work with each person to choose or blend methods based on their goals, needs, and preferences. He checks in regularly and adjusts the plan if something isn’t working.

If you are considering online work, confirm the session formats before booking as specific formats are not stated in the biography. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, reduce travel, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or avoid being on camera if that feels difficult. Many therapists adapt exercises and homework to suit remote sessions so practical progress continues between meetings.
