About Craig

Craig Limbert makes space for people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, loss or big life changes. He offers calm, steady support for those trying to make sense of difficult experiences. Craig is based in the United Kingdom and has worked in mental health services for many years.

He uses a person-centred way of working that starts by listening to what matters to each person. Sessions focus on the here and now, helping the client notice feelings and patterns that affect daily life. The aim is to help people name what is happening and find practical steps forward.

Craig draws on ideas from attachment work and cognitive behavioural therapy alongside mindfulness and existential thinking. This mix helps with mood problems, relationship concerns, trauma and coping with loss. He also has experience supporting people with long-term health issues and complicated life histories.

His background includes work across the NHS and social care over 30 years, and posts in community mental health, advocacy and management. He has an advanced diploma in counselling and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

Craig has supported people from diverse cultural and sexual orientation backgrounds, including those who identify as LGBTQIA+. He emphasises collaboration: clients set goals and Craig works with them to agree how to reach those goals. If you are coping after a disaster, recent or past, he lists coping with natural or human-caused disaster among areas he can address.

To begin, you would complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability.

How Craig uses therapy approaches online

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current feelings and expectations. Online sessions can help people notice patterns in relationships and practise new ways of relating in day-to-day life.

Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre of sessions. The therapist listens without rushing and follows what the client brings, which helps with low mood, confidence and making decisions.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. Brief practical exercises and small experiments are often used to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Craig will discuss which methods seem most useful and adjust plans with the client. This is a collaborative process based on what the person wants to achieve and what feels manageable.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week and avoiding travel time. Some people prefer shorter check-ins or audio-only conversations to suit their day. The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals aim to make sessions workable around everyday life, helping clients apply what they learn between meetings.
