Mr Craig M. Traub

Registered Clinical Psychologists

“I am HPCSA registered Clinical Psychologist & Criminologist with 10+ years of experience. In addition, I am a Chartered Psychologist and Associate Fellow with the British Psychological Society (BPS), and an Associate Fellow with the Psychological Society of Ireland (PSI). www.https://craigmtraub.com.”

About Me

With over a decade of experience, I offer clinical psychology support for individuals navigating complex personal challenges. My background as a criminologist enriches my understanding of human behaviour in diverse contexts. Sessions provide a thoughtful, collaborative space where you can explore concerns at your own pace. I help clients develop clarity and practical strategies for moving forward. This blend of extensive expertise and insight makes me a good match for those seeking a deeply experienced professional.

Approach

Ten years of training and practice shape a structured, curious way of working that pairs thorough assessment with reflective, psychodynamic exploration. I meet clients in Centurion or online in English, keeping sessions paced to your tolerance and focused on clear, practical steps between meetings. Expect careful listening, targeted questions, timely psychoeducation and gentle linking of past experience to present patterns so trauma, grief or codependent dynamics become less overwhelming. This approach tends to suit adults seeking thoughtful, evidence-informed clarity and steady personal change.
