Meet Our Therapists
Dr. Shannan Crawford
Licensed Psychologist
Hi, I’m Dr. Crawford, and I believe there’s a healthier, more vibrant version of yourself inside of you. As a clinical psychologist, I’ve invested over 15-years honing strategies to help get you unstuck so you can be the confident, imaginative, inspiring person you were meant to be. Let me lead you on a journey of identifying and overcoming areas of self-sabotage through my approach, Restoring-Self-Cohesion (RSC). By removing unconscious blocks and restoring internal alignment, you’ll be able to throw off any limitations that are holding you back. It’s time for you to stop self-sabotage and take back your life.
Eric Danielson
MSW in Clinical Social Work, Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Hello, my name is Eric Danielson, I specialize in working with male individuals, and couples, and leading men’s groups. I am passionate about helping you overcome past and current trauma. To find freedom and feel like yourself again. I am invested in you breaking free from anxiety and PTSD symptoms that have been stealing your joy. I will give you the tools to help you quiet the mental chatter so you can regain your ability to connect with your loved ones and thrive in your career. I am here to help you live the life you want to live; no longer bound by self-destructive patterns and stuck in habits and addictions controlling your life. Depression and burnout are common following chronic periods of stress and trauma. If you’ve tried traditional counseling and it didn’t help, I challenge you to invest in yourself by experiencing the innovative Restoring-Self-Cohesion approach. The depth of clinical insight and techniques in this cutting-edge approach will remove the heavy weights you thought you had to live with.
My experience as an Army Flight Medical NCO with service to Iraq, former Corrections Medical Specialist, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, former VA Trauma Counselor, and 5 years providing counseling in private practice, I have over twenty-five years of experience in assessing, diagnosing, and treating trauma. Why all this talk about trauma? Often, this can be the origin of chronic depression, anxiety, anger, etc., and even be the catalyst for deconstructing faith which causes many men to lose their balance and sense of purpose. I know what it’s like, I’ve been there, and I have the training and experience to help you embark on the adventure to reclaim the core of your strength and lead.
Andria Booles
Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy, MMFT, LPC-A
I’m Andria. I’ve been married for almost 25 years and am a mother of four and grandmother of two. I am currently working on my Doctorate and PhD in Natural Medicine with a focus on Psychosomatic Therapy, Quantum Physics, and Holographic Manipulation Therapy. I have a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and an Undergraduate degree in Psychology. I’m trained in Inner Healing, Prepare/Enrich, Gottman (Level 1 and 2), Enneagram, Spiritual Freedom, and EMDR through EMDRIA. I am a Think Differently Coach and I utilize parts work from Internal Family Systems and Restoring Self-Cohesion models. I have a Psychoanalytic lens which understands that the subconscious is the key to unlocking areas of our life that other modalities have been unable to reach.
My passion for healing started when I began to advocate and seek help for my family. I learned that addressing each member in the family system may look different depending on their specific needs. I use a holistic, systemic approach, believing there are several ways to find and walk in freedom. I am passionate about restoring the mind, body, soul, spirit, will, and heart connection as they integrate and function together through the process of the therapeutic relationship, neuroscience, and epigenetics which can lead to discovering one’s true created identity and purpose.
I would love to help you get to know the various parts of yourself that helped you survive painful places of your past. This could include various forms of childhood or present trauma, neglect, anxiety, depression, difficult family-of-origin dynamics, spiritual/emotional/sexual abuse, DID, SRA, PTSD, addiction, sexual dysfunction, grief, parenting, and physical pain in the body. Through self-compassion, I help clients learn how we can redeem their stories into a transformed life that can help and empower others.
I love to work with all ages with varying degrees of struggle as well as couples, and family units. I believe in the value of collaborating with other specialists if needed and will continue to walk alongside you to help you find your voice along the way.
