About Craig
Dr. Craig Anderson is a doctoral-level psychologist practicing in Louisiana. He has 20 years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. He also works with issues like addiction, grief, anger, and challenges with self-esteem.
His approach is practical and person-focused. He uses a mix of methods tailored to each person, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Sessions are aimed at reducing distress and building everyday coping skills.
Dr. Anderson describes his work as collaborative and directive when needed. He talks through problems together with clients, sets clear goals, and suggests exercises or strategies to try between sessions. The goal is to strengthen resilience and improve day-to-day functioning.
People often come for help with life changes, work stress, intimacy concerns, or patterns that keep repeating. He also notes experience with bipolar symptoms, ADHD, personality disorder concerns, and self-harm issues when these affect someone's functioning.
His style combines support with practical skill-building. He aims to help people recover functioning, reduce symptoms, and move toward goals they care about. To begin, a person would use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take actions that match their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and then practicing different ways of reacting. CBT is commonly used for depression, anxiety, and managing mood and behavior.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with a client about goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
Confirm current session options before booking, as specific online formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example it can remove travel time, allow shorter check-ins around a work break, or make it simpler to keep a regular schedule. It also lets the therapist guide practical exercises and homework the same way as in-person therapy. If you want to explore remote sessions, check the available formats when you schedule.
