About Craig Lilburn

Craig Lilburn offers a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can speak openly and explore their inner world. He approaches therapy from the belief that each person is the expert on their own experience and already carries the capacity for meaningful self-understanding and growth. In sessions he focuses on being fully present, listening with empathy, and offering unconditional positive regard so clients can feel accepted and understood as they work through difficult feelings and life challenges.

Craig supports clients to unpack sensations of feeling stuck, disconnected, or uncertain about direction in life, and he walks alongside people dealing with anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, transitions, identity concerns, or the long-term effects of past experiences. His aim is to help clients examine what lies beneath surface emotions, gain clarity about thoughts and feelings, and access their own resources to move toward what feels right for them.

Throughout his work Craig emphasises a collaborative, respectful approach tailored to each person’s needs and pace. He holds professional credentials including BACP and NCPS, which indicate training and adherence to recognised standards in counselling and psychotherapy practice.

Therapeutic approaches for online support and growth

Craig integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in online work to offer both warm, person-focused support and practical tools for change. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an empathetic, non-directive relationship where the therapist truly listens and mirrors your experience so you can explore feelings and rediscover what matters to you. This approach is helpful for people seeking greater self-understanding, emotional acceptance, and reconnection with their authentic self.

CBT focuses on identifying and gently challenging unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, then building practical skills to manage anxiety, low mood, and stress. It can be useful when people want concrete strategies to reduce symptoms and develop new coping habits alongside deeper personal exploration.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Craig works collaboratively to match methods to each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. He discusses options and adapts techniques so therapy feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy lives or connect across distances. These remote options support consistent access to licensed professionals and allow therapy to continue in a way that suits individual routines and comfort levels.
