Corinne Crawford , NCPS

Corinne Crawford is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 13 years of experience supporting adults through trauma, stress and grief. She works primarily with people facing anxiety and stress, relationship difficulties, the long-term effects of trauma, pregnancy loss and terminal diagnosis in pregnancy, and the many practical and emotional challenges that accompany life transitions. Her practice is rooted in a person-centered, integrative and trauma-informed approach that adapts to each individual’s needs.

She views the counselling process as a collaboration, tailoring interventions to the goals each person brings to therapy. Her work takes a holistic view - considering physical health, life stage and social and cultural context - while drawing on the client’s existing strengths to foster growth and improved wellbeing. This flexible, client-led orientation helps people set meaningful goals and work toward lasting change.

Corinne has worked with a wide range of people, including healthcare workers juggling work and home life, professionals and business owners who have not previously addressed past trauma or relationship problems, women who have experienced pregnancy loss, people living with cancer, and parents or young adults struggling with relationships or everyday pressures.

She runs a busy private practice offering both online and face-to-face sessions from a central town location and contributes to the mental health community through volunteer work supporting a charity for military veterans and facilitating free peer support groups for counsellors and psychotherapists. Corinne holds NCPS credentials - membership on the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society’s Accredited Register - and keeps her skills up to date through workshops and CPD in areas such as grief, pregnancy loss, DBT and trauma treatments including the Rewind Technique.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Sessions

Corinne integrates client-centered therapy into her practice, creating a supportive space where the person’s own experiences and goals guide the work. This approach helps people who need compassionate listening and a collaborative environment to explore what matters most to them.

She also uses mindfulness therapy to help people develop present-moment awareness and practical skills for managing anxiety, stress and strong emotions. Mindfulness techniques can be especially useful for reducing rumination and improving emotional regulation in everyday life.

For clients affected by traumatic events, Corinne draws on trauma-focused methods that address both the emotional impact and the practical coping strategies needed to move forward. These approaches aim to reduce distressing symptoms while strengthening resilience and safety.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and Corinne works collaboratively with each person to determine the best fit based on needs, goals and personal preferences. She tailors methods over time so the work stays relevant and effective.

Online therapy in her practice is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals without travel, accommodate busy lives, and maintain continuity of care when in-person sessions are difficult.
