Craig Johnstone , BACP

Craig Johnstone acknowledges that beginning therapy often takes courage and recognizes each person who makes that first move. He works with people facing a range of concerns, including stress, depression, anxiety, grief, and issues related to addictions, and supports those who want to change direction in life or start anew. He aims to provide respectful, sensitive, and compassionate care, shaping conversations and treatment plans to reflect each person's specific circumstances and goals.

Craig values a client-focused approach that places the individual's experience at the center of the work, and he adapts his support to meet practical and emotional needs. He holds the credential BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which identifies his connection to a national professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the United Kingdom. Craig is open to helping people navigate common mental health challenges and life transitions, and he expresses a clear willingness to support those seeking help.

Client-Centered Care and Online Support

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and respect - giving people space to explore their feelings and make their own choices about change. This approach helps with emotional distress such as anxiety and depression, supports grief work, and assists those coping with addictions or seeking a new direction in life.

Craig Johnstone uses a client-centered perspective to build collaborative relationships. Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and he works together with each person to identify methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Licensed professionals and therapists often adapt their style over time to suit what works best for the individual.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to arrange appointments around work, family, or other responsibilities, and they increase access for people who may be located away from in-person services. For many, remote sessions provide a manageable and effective way to engage in ongoing therapeutic work.
