About Craig
Craig Leech is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with two decades of clinical experience. He uses straightforward, collaborative care and focuses on making therapy practical and understandable for people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. He combines client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral techniques.
That means sessions start with what matters most to the person and then move to hands-on strategies for changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness and solution-focused methods are used to build coping skills and set clear, achievable goals.
How Craig works
Craig has worked across inpatient and outpatient settings, including adolescent residential programs and psychiatric hospitals. Those years shaped a calm, direct style that aims to reduce overwhelm and bring small, steady changes. Sessions are aimed at real problems like panic attacks, mood shifts, addiction challenges, self-harm thoughts, relationship strain, parenting stress, workplace issues, and questions about life purpose.
He also supports people facing guilt, shame, impulsivity, and loneliness, guiding them toward clearer choices. Therapy often mixes short-term focused work with deeper exploration when needed. Craig uses plain language, practical exercises, and collaborative planning so people leave sessions with something to try between meetings.
He invites honest conversation and aims to make progress feel manageable.

Online support options
Approach-driven online care that fits your life
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The therapist follows the client's lead, building trust and helping people clarify what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replaces them with practical strategies to reduce anxiety, depression, panic, and mood swings.Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk through goals and preferences, then recommend techniques to try. Sessions may start with problem-focused goals and then shift to deeper work when needed, adjusting methods together as progress unfolds.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to suit different situations. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skills practice. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a break at work. Live chat and messaging are useful for short check-ins, brief coping coaching, or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around daily life and to keep momentum between appointments.
