About Craig
Dr. Craig Landry is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with 27 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem concerns, and depression. He focuses on practical, goal-oriented work so people can try different ways of thinking and acting. Sessions are straightforward and aimed at finding what helps in daily life.
He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and solution-focused methods to break down problems into manageable steps. That means noticing thought patterns, testing new behaviors, and tracking what changes. He also draws on motivational interviewing and trauma-focused approaches when those fit a person’s situation.
Craig has spent many years working with people facing caregiving stress, chronic illness and pain, codependency, communication and family problems, fertility and hospice issues, and concerns common to first responders, veterans, and men in midlife. He helps people who feel isolated, guilty, or stuck in patterns they want to change.
In sessions he prioritizes clear goals and practical strategies over long talks without direction. Homework and brief experiments between sessions are common when useful. Progress is reviewed regularly so plans can be adjusted.
Sessions are offered in English and are provided from California. Costs vary by location and use a cancel-anytime subscription model. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled through the online therapy options button.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Dr. Landry commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and to try small behavior experiments that can change daily routines. CBT is practical and focused on clear steps the client can try between sessions. He also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening and shaping the session around what the person brings up, and Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify goals and strengthen their reasons for change.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is reviewed. That means sessions can shift between problem-solving, skills practice, and short goal-focused conversations depending on what helps most.
Session formats are not listed in the original biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, such as reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or removing the need to be on camera for every meeting. Licensed professionals can use a mix of structured CBT exercises and open conversation in virtual sessions to keep work focused and practical.
