About Craig
Dr. Craig Landry focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, and the aftermath of trauma. He meets each person with respect and calm, and aims to create a steady space to talk through what matters most.
His tone is direct but warm, and he adapts the pace to what each person needs. With 27 years of clinical experience as an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California, he has worked with a wide range of life challenges.
How Craig works
He helps people who are coping with big life changes, ongoing pain or illness, caregiver strain, and struggles with self-esteem. He also addresses issues such as loneliness, guilt, communication problems, and questions about life purpose. In sessions he draws from practical methods like cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused strategies.
That means he helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns, try small changes, and build on what already works. He also uses a client-centered stance to keep the conversation grounded in each person’s values and goals. Dr.
Landry offers motivational interviewing to support people who want to change habits or face difficult decisions. Trauma-focused work is available for those processing past harm or abuse. He tailors treatment plans to individual needs instead of using a one-size-fits-all approach.
Sessions are offered in English and provided through a range of online formats. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that fits the person’s life.

Online support options
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person’s experience. Online sessions using this approach prioritize the person’s goals and let the therapist follow the client’s lead, which works well for issues like low self-esteem, life changes, and isolation.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and targets small, testable changes. In an online setting CBT often uses short exercises, homework, and practical skill-building to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms.
Trauma-focused therapy provides structured ways to process past harm and reduce its impact on daily life. Delivered online, it can include paced discussions and coping skills practice so people feel more in control of their reactions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose or combine methods based on their goals, comfort level, and what has helped before. That collaborative planning can change over time as needs evolve.
Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video works well for in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a tight schedule or lower bandwidth. Live chat and text are good for quick check-ins, ongoing support, and people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
