Dr. Craig Dunn
Counselling Psychologist & Practice Manager
About Craig
Hello and thank you for considering me to support your mental health needs.
​
Supporting people to live happier and more contented lives has always been a passion of mine. This started with a strong inner hope towards more fulfilment in my own personal relationships as well as a need to help those around me. It was not long before I channelled this into volunteer counselling services when I was eighteen. It has now been fifteen years since I started supporting children over the phone in a helpline service and the passion to heal is just as strong within my independent practice.
​
I have worked in a variety of mental health settings, including NHS Settings, cancer support services, LGBTQIA+ charities, education, school counselling, as well as management, supervision and teaching positions.
I have progressed towards a Chartered Counselling Psychologist and have completed an honours degree in Psychology and a doctoral degree In Counselling Psychology. I have come to specialize in areas of anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, gender and sexuality issues, children and parental therapies and personality issues.
I have trained in multiple therapies including; person-centred therapy, cognitive-behavioural therapy, schema therapy, systemic, play and integrative therapies.
​
My way of working as a practitioner has evolved over the years. I recall seeing the benefit of educating clients over skills and tools to manage emotional distress as well as the importance of empowering a client towards inner peace and change. However, I now work with deeper unmet needs from early life and offer the healing power of a reparative relationship that brings long lasting change.
​
I look forward to hearing from you and being alongside you as you heal.
