Therapists in Alameda County, CA
I have received extensive training in DBT (dialectical behavior therapy) and CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) and continue to utilize these models in my work today. Together, they provide effective strategies for change balanced with mindfulness and acceptance. As a clinician, I aim to provide authenticity and evidenced based practices to ensure that you receive effective and compassionate care. I have experience working with individuals from 13 - 90 years old and enjoy having a diverse case load. In addition to DBT and CBT, I have been trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Prolonged Exposure.

My name is Caitlin Crawford and I'm a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Orange County, CA working with clients statewide via telehealth.

While my approach to therapy is holistic, integrative and intentionally tailored to each individual, I do tend to draw primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, and Solution-Focused modalities.
