Craig Lilburn, BACP, NCPS

Craig Lilburn offers a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can speak openly and explore their experiences at a comfortable pace. He works from the belief that each person is the primary expert on their own life and that meaningful self-understanding and growth already exist within them. In sessions he focuses on being genuinely present, bringing empathy, unconditional positive regard, and authenticity to the therapeutic relationship. This approach prioritizes understanding the client’s perspective without imposing external judgments, and creates room to examine feelings, thoughts, and patterns in a supportive environment.

Many people come to him when they feel stuck, disconnected from themselves, or uncertain about their direction. He supports individuals through anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, major life transitions, identity questions, and the ongoing impact of past experiences. By offering sustained listening and reflective engagement, his work aims to help clients uncover what lies beneath surface concerns and to access inner resources that support change and clearer decision making.

Craig’s practice emphasizes respect, acceptance, and collaboration. He guides clients toward reconnecting with an authentic sense of self and toward practical insight that can inform day-to-day choices. His professional credentials include BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and NCPS, which reflect his commitment to recognized standards in the field.
