Craig has helped me through my grief and I have been able to move forward in a way that I haven’t been able to since I have lost a family member suddenly.
More about Craig
- 33 years' experience
- Male
- LPC
As a Licensed Professional Counselor and over 35 years of experience in helping clients, it is a privilege to engage in the change, growth, and resolution process with the people with whom I have worked. Having experienced clients in settings ranging from private practice, to incarceration, to hospitals, to clinics, to churches, it is my belief that the counseling process is not intended for only a certain segment of our society. With a Christian basis for intervention, all clients are seen as valuable gifts to the world and the counseling journey seeks to optimize the functional and healthy expression of you as a gift. Therapeutic approaches include behavioral, cognitive-behavioral, RET, and truth based counseling with an unwavering foundational principle of compassion and the respect of the personal dignity afforded to each client served.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
