About Craig

Craig Still works with adults on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, self-esteem, addictions and relationship and intimacy-related issues. He uses a pluralistic approach and has four years of post-qualification experience. Craig is registered with NCPS and practises in the United Kingdom.

He offers a practical, collaborative way of working. Sessions focus on what matters now and on small steps that can change daily life. Craig draws on a range of therapies to match the person, using methods such as acceptance and commitment strategies, attachment-focused ideas and cognitive behavioural techniques when they suit the concern.

Craig regularly supports people facing career change, parenting strain, sleep and eating problems, chronic health issues, and the emotional effects of bereavement. He also works with those experiencing ADHD, bipolar and depression related difficulties, and with clients exploring LGBT issues and identity questions.

The work can address specific problems like communication, codependency, commitment worries, control issues and dissociation. Craig explains options clearly and helps people pick practical tools they can use between sessions. He offers both short-term and longer-term work depending on the client’s needs.

Sessions are described as collaborative and gently challenging, with an emphasis on respecting the client’s view of their life. To begin, clients select the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How Craig uses different therapeutic approaches online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, and then commit to actions that match their values; it can help with anxiety, low mood and getting on with daily life. Attachment-Based ideas look at how early relationships affect current patterns and can be useful for intimacy, trust and communication problems. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and teaches practical strategies to change them, which suits issues like anxiety, sleep and eating difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss different options and agree with the client which methods to try based on needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and may change as the work progresses.

Please confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the profile does not list specific formats. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare and travel, and it can allow shorter check-ins or sessions without video when that helps. Registered or accredited professionals often use remote sessions to reduce travel time and to maintain continuity of care across locations.
