About Craig

Craig Still is a counsellor who uses a pluralistic approach to therapy. He holds an NCPS credential and has four years of post-qualification experience working with adults. He offers a warm, collaborative space where people can talk through what matters to them and find ways to move forward.

Craig focuses on practical problems such as stress, anxiety, grief and low self-esteem. He also supports people facing relationship strain, burnout, addiction concerns and identity questions, including LGBT-related issues. He frames therapy as a partnership and respects each person's own knowledge about their life.

In sessions he listens without judgement and offers gentle challenges when helpful. He helps people notice patterns, understand difficult feelings and try out new ways of coping. Therapy can be short term for a specific issue, or longer term for more complex concerns.

Craig has worked with issues ranging from trauma and dissociation to sleep and eating difficulties. He also addresses areas like parenting stress, career changes, chronic illness and compassion fatigue. The emphasis is on practical steps that fit into everyday life.

People looking for support around men’s wellbeing may find his style accessible and straightforward. He welcomes people from many backgrounds and accepts international clients. To start, readers should use the site Start Therapy process to match and book a session.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and take action that matches their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical steps to change patterns that cause distress. It can help with sleep, mood and anxiety. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on understanding how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotional responses, which can be helpful for intimacy and relationship concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Craig collaborates with each person to decide which methods feel most helpful. That choice is guided by the issues brought to therapy, personal goals and what feels manageable in sessions.

If you are considering online therapy, check the available session options before booking to confirm what is currently offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also support people living abroad, as the profile notes international clients are accepted. Talk with the therapist during the matching process about how to structure sessions so they work for your routine and goals.
