About Rupert
Rupert Crockett is a counsellor who uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and EMDR alongside body-aware practices to help people who are struggling. He brings a calm, practical style and a focus on clear steps people can try between sessions.
He moved into talking therapies after training in remedial massage and craniosacral therapy. That background means he pays attention to how physical tension and breathing show up alongside difficult thoughts. He has developed a practice that links body work with talking therapies to make sense of stress and sleepless nights.
Rupert has worked in hospitality settings and now runs a private practice in Wiltshire and online. He has spent many years learning different approaches and keeps studying to refine what he offers. This range of experience informs how he tailors work to the person in front of him.
In session he aims to help people feel less stuck and find clear next steps. He uses straightforward tools from CBT to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and practical exercises to change them. He also offers EMDR-based work to address memories that keep causing distress.
Rupert favours simple routines such as breathing, short mindfulness practices, and small behaviour changes that build better sleep and steadier mood. He encourages people to reconnect with their values and daily habits so they can find more meaning and clearer direction in everyday life.
How CBT and EMDR translate to online work
Rupert uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test small changes in daily life. CBT sessions online focus on clear goals, homework tasks and practical routines that can reduce stress and improve sleep.He also uses Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing approaches to work with distressing memories and strong emotional reactions. EMDR-style sessions aim to reduce the intensity of upsetting memories so they interfere less with day-to-day life.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Rupert works collaboratively to agree which methods suit a person's needs, goals and preferences. He will discuss options and adapt the plan as work progresses so the client feels involved in decisions.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life and to keep continuity between appointments. It can allow shorter check-ins, quieter focus when travel is difficult, and easier access for international clients. Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking so arrangements match practical needs.
