About Rupert
Counsellor Rupert Crockett, NCPS, has three years' experience in counselling work in the United Kingdom and online. He helps people with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes. He also supports people dealing with trauma, grief, addictions, sleep problems, anger, career questions, parenting strain and intimacy-related issues.
Rupert uses approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), mindfulness and Internal Family Systems. In sessions he combines talking work with attention to how thoughts, feelings and behaviour interact. He aims to make things more manageable step by step rather than offering quick fixes.
He trained earlier in body-based therapies and brings that background into his counselling practice. That experience influences how he notices physical responses during sessions and how those link to emotional patterns. He also maintains a daily meditation practice which informs his use of mindfulness techniques.
Rupert works from a private practice in Wiltshire and offers online counselling. He takes a practical approach to problems like sleep disruption, relationship strain and addictive behaviour, helping people try different ways of coping and testing what works for them.
People who book a first session will be asked about current concerns and goals. Rupert explains methods, checks what feels acceptable, and works collaboratively on a plan. He accepts international clients and runs sessions in English.
How Rupert uses CBT, EMDR and mindfulness online
Rupert works with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions keep a problem going and uses practical exercises to change those patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.He also uses Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, commonly called EMDR, to help people process distressing memories and reduce the emotional intensity of those memories. EMDR sessions involve structured sets of attention or movement alongside talking about the distressing material.
Mindfulness practice appears in sessions as short attention exercises and breathing work to reduce reactivity and improve focus. These are simple practices that can be practised between sessions to support day-to-day coping.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Rupert discusses goals and preferences, explains the methods and agrees on a plan together. He adapts what is tried as the work progresses rather than committing to a single method from the start.
The profile states he offers online counselling but does not list specific formats here. Confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, cut out travel time and allow for shorter check-ins or evening appointments when needed.
