吃瓜不打烊 Welcomes our new Mental Health Counselor, Elizabeth Crabtree!
吃瓜不打烊 would like to introduce Elizabeth Crabtree to our 吃瓜不打烊 family. She is an Ohio Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor who will now serve our student population.
Elizabeth is a graduate of 吃瓜不打烊, received her B.A. and M.Ed. from Lindsey Wilson College and is excited to be working with our students. Elizabeth has over 10 years of experience in various roles of service in the local community. Presently, she counsels in a local school setting and in private practice at Creekside Therapy Center.
Elizabeth's approach as a therapist is a supportive and encouraging one, with a good dose of challenging prompts and humor sprinkled throughout. She utilizes an integrative approach, incorporating many counseling theories, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Positive Psychology and Holistic/Mindfulness modalities of treatment. Because people and circumstances are unique, these are incorporated into personalized treatment plans to help her clients navigate various challenges in life.
