    Crushonna Fason, M.Ed., LPC Associate, LCDC-I
    US Military VeteranGroup Facilitator

    I provide individual and group counseling for clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, substance use concerns, and other challenges that affect everyday life. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and trauma-informed, with an emphasis on helping clients feel supported while developing practical skills they can use in their daily lives.

    I work with adults, including women who have experienced sexual trauma, veterans, and individuals navigating significant changes in their lives. I also provide an LGBTQIA+ affirming counseling space where clients are respected and supported in exploring the concerns that bring them to therapy.

    In individual counseling, I work collaboratively with clients to understand what is bringing them to therapy, identify patterns that may be getting in the way, and develop practical strategies that support their goals. I use evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), DBT-informed strategies, person-centered counseling, and trauma-informed care.

    As a military veteran with a background in behavioral health, education, training, and crisis intervention, I bring an authentic understanding of military culture, major life transitions, and the transition to civilian life. My clinical experience includes working with adults, families, veterans, and individuals navigating mental health and substance use concerns.

    "Creating supportive spaces where clients can build practical skills, gain self-understanding, and navigate life's challenges with confidence."
