About Craig

Craig Dunlop welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, anger or low mood. He writes plainly and listens carefully to what matters to each person. Craig aims to make sessions feel practical and focused so people can start to see small changes that help day to day.

Craig works in a collaborative, pluralistic way that adapts to the individual. He and the client agree on goals and use different methods to suit the situation.

Background and approach

The approach is meant to be flexible so it can change as needs change. He has three years' experience supporting people through major life changes, including separation and loss. He also helps people with chronic pain, long-term illness and problems at work.

Issues such as guilt, shame, feelings of abandonment and isolation are part of his regular caseload. Craig practices with professional standards set by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He aims to be straightforward, fair and reliable in sessions.

People can expect a calm, non-judgemental space to talk and to set clear next steps. Sessions are offered using a range of online formats and can suit different rhythms of life. Craig encourages clients to start small and build on progress, focusing on what will make a practical difference now.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Craig lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Evidence-based approaches and online counselling

Craig uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques in a flexible way so the work fits the person. He draws on approaches that help people manage anxiety and low mood by changing thinking and behaviour patterns. These methods focus on practical strategies and exercises that can be used between sessions to reduce symptoms and improve coping.

He also uses approaches that focus on relationships and attachment, helping people understand how early experiences shape current feelings and reactions. This work can be useful for issues such as abandonment, shame, anger and difficulties forming close relationships. Each approach is explained in simple terms and tailored to what the client wants to achieve.

Finding the right way of working is part of the therapy. Craig will discuss different approaches and decide together with the client which one feels most helpful. The process is collaborative and flexible, and methods can be adjusted as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which allow therapy to fit different schedules. Video is good for a fuller face-to-face feel, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins and messaging can support ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while juggling work, family and other commitments.
