About Craig
Dr. Craig Anderson is a doctoral-level psychologist with two decades of clinical experience in Louisiana.
Background and approach
He works with adults facing depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, anger, substance use, relationship and adjustment challenges, as well as complex concerns such as trauma, grief, bipolar disorder, and addictions. Dr.
Anderson combines multiple therapeutic methods to tailor care to each person’s needs and goals. Drawing on client-centered principles alongside cognitive behavioral and acceptance-based strategies, he aims to reduce distress, build resilience, and improve daily functioning.
His approach blends supportive listening with practical, directive interventions that help clients develop new skills, reframe unhelpful patterns, and pursue meaningful change. Additional attention is given to personality-related difficulties and self-harm where present.
Dr. Anderson frames therapy as a collaborative process focused on recovery and enhanced quality of life.
He meets people where they are and works with them to clarify goals, try evidence-informed techniques, and track progress toward improved wellbeing.
Clinical Approaches and Remote Care
Dr. Anderson commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into his online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve functioning, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and anger management. ACT helps clients clarify values, accept difficult internal experiences, and take committed action toward meaningful goals, often supporting those coping with chronic stress, grief, or life transitions.Finding the right therapeutic approach is treated as a collaborative process. He works with each person to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques over time so treatment feels practical and relevant to real-life challenges.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats make it easier to schedule appointments around work and family demands, allow continuity when travel or relocation occurs, and support consistent skill practice between sessions with convenient check-ins and messaging options.
