Dr. Craven is sincerely committed to ongoing education to further develop mastery and competence.
I continually invest in expanding and strengthening my skills as a therapist by participating in intensive trainings, traveling across the continent to work with numerous distinguished colleagues. This has taken me to New York, California, Washington D.C., and Montreal in pursuit of learning from the most respected therapists in the field. My commitment to continuously sharpen my skills as a psychologist facilitates conducting therapy with precision, in order to provide the most efficient and effective therapy possible. Through years of working with patients and learning from these trainings, I have come to understand the nuances of our behavior and motivations, as well as the healing that occurs when we have corrective experiences. As your therapist, I'll help you with both understanding and healing so that you can reach your goals.
