Corinne Crawford, NCPS

Corinne Crawford is an experienced counsellor in the United Kingdom who specialises in trauma, stress, grief and life transitions. She works primarily with adults facing anxiety, relationship challenges, pregnancy loss and terminal diagnoses during pregnancy, and supports people coping with significant changes. Her practice is integrative and trauma informed, grounded in a person-centred approach that emphasises the individual needs and strengths of each client.

Corinne views counselling as a collaborative process where goals are shaped together and interventions are tailored to the person, their physical health, life stage, and social and cultural context. She draws on existing strengths to promote self-growth and practical coping, offering support for a wide range of issues including family and parenting concerns, career and self-esteem difficulties, compassion fatigue, and the effects of past abuse or abandonment.

Her caseload has included healthcare workers balancing professional and family demands, professionals and business owners addressing unresolved trauma, women who have experienced pregnancy loss, people living with cancer, caregivers, and young adults navigating challenging relationships. Corinne works with clients through both online and face-to-face sessions from a central town location and maintains a busy private practice.

She remains active in the wider mental health community through volunteer work supporting a charity for military veterans and by facilitating peer support groups for counsellors and psychotherapists. Corinne is fully insured, ICO registered, enhanced DBS checked, accredited on the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) Accredited Register, and holds Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership with the British Psychological Society. She continues professional development with workshops and CPD courses in areas such as grief, pregnancy loss, DBT, and contemporary trauma treatments.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Corinne uses a client-centred approach that places the person and their goals at the heart of therapy, offering a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where individuals can explore feelings and build on existing strengths - this approach is well suited to stress, relationship issues and self-esteem work.

She also draws on trauma-focused methods that help people process and make sense of distressing experiences, using structured techniques aimed at reducing the ongoing impact of trauma and improving day-to-day coping. In addition, Mindfulness Therapy is used to teach present-moment awareness and practical skills for managing anxiety and emotional reactivity, which can support clients facing grief, caregiving stress, or chronic worry.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and Corinne works collaboratively with each person to identify the fit that best matches their needs, goals and preferences. She adapts methods over time as progress and circumstances change.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how people connect - sessions can take place by video call, over the phone, via live chat or through text-based messaging. This range of options makes it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, access support from home, and continue work through transitions or when in-person appointments are not convenient.
