About Craig

LMHC Craig Johnson is a New York licensed mental health counselor with 40 years of experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, eating concerns, coping with life changes, and ADHD. He speaks English and works from a practical, direct style aimed at helping people find clearer ways to manage everyday problems.

Johnson has a long history of working with gambling and gaming difficulties alongside other addictive behaviors. In sessions he prioritizes clear conversation about symptoms and patterns. He adapts how he talks and plans work to the needs a person brings to the room. That means setting goals, checking progress, and adjusting approaches as needed.

His work includes addressing mood disorders, panic and social anxiety, and issues around abandonment and attachment. He also assists people dealing with guilt, shame, impulsivity, isolation, and money or financial stress. Sessions involve discussing behaviors, identifying triggers, and practicing practical responses to current problems.

Craig draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to shape treatment. He uses methods that help change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and build better coping skills. The emphasis is on simple, doable steps that can be tried between sessions.

Pricing varies by location and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients are asked to use the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session. He is not accepting international clients.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online work

Evidence-based techniques focus on changing thoughts and behaviors and building coping skills. Cognitive approaches help people notice and test unhelpful thoughts, which can reduce anxiety and panic symptoms when practiced in daily life. Behavioral methods focus on changing routines and responses, useful for addictions, impulsivity, and gambling or gaming problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review a person's needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit. Sessions are collaborative: goals are set together and adjusted as progress is noted.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove travel time. Talk with the therapist during the matching step to learn which formats are offered and which will best fit your routine and technical circumstances.
