About Patrick
Patrick Crabtree helps people facing relationship strain, anger, low self-esteem, career uncertainty and major life changes. He is comfortable supporting those dealing with abandonment, attachment worries, commitment doubts and feelings of emptiness. Patrick uses straightforward, practical conversation to help people make small, steady changes.
He has four years of professional experience and holds BACP registration, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy accreditation. Sessions focus on what matters now and on building useful skills for daily life.
Background and approach
Patrick aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can speak openly about difficult thoughts and feelings. In sessions he listens for patterns that keep people stuck, such as avoidance, codependency, or communication problems. He then works with clients to try different ways of responding and relating.
This often includes setting simple, realistic goals to practise between meetings. Patrick also supports those dealing with fatherhood issues, caregiver stress, divorce or separation and guilt or shame. He pays attention to how attachment and past breaks shape current relationships, and helps people find clearer boundaries and healthier routines.
His style is direct but warm. He encourages small experiments and honest reflection rather than quick fixes. For people who want steady, practical help with relationships, anger or life transitions, he offers a patient, down-to-earth way forward.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and shape sessions together. This collaborative process means the plan can change as progress is made or new priorities appear.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls suit fuller face-to-face conversation and shared visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it simple to share thoughts between meetings and keep momentum. These options let people fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping continuity of care.
