About Craig
Craig Walker is an NCPS counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 13 years' experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions and relationship difficulties, along with other concerns such as grief, trauma, low self-esteem and codependency.
Craig focuses on helping people find their own answers rather than offering quick fixes. He uses conversation, silence or whatever feels most useful in the moment. He draws on formal study and life experience to guide those who feel stuck or overwhelmed.
Sessions are straightforward and practical. Craig listens, asks questions, and offers gentle challenge when needed. He can use mindfulness and cognitive approaches to help spot unhelpful patterns and try small, manageable changes.
People contact him about intimacy issues, anger, career pressures, ADHD and coping with major life changes. He also supports those dealing with abandonment, attachment concerns, caregiving strain and chronic illness. He will work alongside someone to clarify priorities and make steps that feel doable.
Craig welcomes people who want a down-to-earth counsellor who speaks plainly. He accepts international clients and carries out work in English. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and book an initial session to discuss what they want to address.
How sessions work
How Craig uses different approaches in online sessions
Client-Centred work means the conversation is led by the client. The counsellor follows what matters most to the person and reflects that back to help them understand their own thoughts and feelings. This suits people who need time to find direction and make sense of their experience.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small experiments. It is useful for anxiety, depression and for changing patterns that keep someone stuck. Craig can introduce simple techniques to try between sessions and review how they go.
Existential ideas are about meaning, choice and responsibility. They help when someone is grappling with big life questions, loss or a sense of aimlessness. These conversations look at values and what matters now rather than offering quick answers.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Craig will discuss options with the client and adapt methods based on their goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and adjusts as needs become clearer.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm the available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or travel. It can also allow shorter check-ins when time is tight or avoid the need to travel to an appointment.
