Craig Puller

I'm available evenings Mon - Fri, from 5pm to 8pm, as well as Saturday & Sunday mornings.

I am a trauma informed therapist who works with adults, young people and children.  Though primarily trained in integrative / humanistic therapeutic modalities, the majority of my work is based on Person Centred and Solution Focused therapies.  

I have worked with a range of patient concerns including low mood, intrusive worries, self harm & suicidal ideation, gender identification, neurodiversity, parenting problems, school refusal, domestic violence, and low self esteem.  

At the very core of my work, I maintain the following belief:  each and every individual possesses the wisdom to identify ways in which they want to improve their lives, as well as the strength to achieve those changes.  In other words, I use a strengths based approach to help people of all ages access their true selves and separate from invalid, negative misconceptions they may have. I provide my clients with tools (such as adaptive coping strategies) to help manage the obstacles and will softly challenge them to start to see themselves as they actually are.  

Although the majority of my work is short term, I do not require any minimum number of sessions.  Each client is unique and so therefore the frequency of the sessions and duration of the therapeutic intervention will also be tailored to meet the needs of that individual. 

My first session is 55 minutes at the agreed upon usual session rate. I will review the forms that you have completed prior to our first session and we will get an overview of the challenges that you're facing and generate treatment goals.
