About Barbara
Barbara Craig is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. She works with adults and people in relationships to address worries that include anxiety, depression and life transitions. Sessions are offered in English and Polish and she supports clients from diverse backgrounds.
Her approach combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with attachment-informed thinking and person-centred listening. She adapts the work to each person, blending talking therapies such as cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness when useful.
Background and approach
This helps keep sessions practical and grounded in what matters to the client. Barbara has supported people facing trauma, abuse and coercive control, as well as those dealing with grief, addictions and eating concerns. She also helps with relationship difficulties, communication problems and the stress of caring for others.
Her additional focus areas include issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, and blended family challenges. She offers both open-ended therapy and shorter term counselling, tailoring the pace to each person. The first sessions are used to identify priorities and agree on goals together.
People can expect a calm, non-judgemental space for talking through painful feelings and practical next steps. Barbara is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. Reaching out can feel difficult, and she invites people to take the first step when they are ready.
