Jonny Cragg

 

LMHC (LPCC 15474)

Licensed Therapist

Originally from Leeds England, Jonny graduated with Honors from the University of East London. His first job in the field was at a YMCA program for vulnerable teenagers in 1988.

Jonnys’ interest and achievements in music gave him opportunities to perform and record in Europe and then America whilst informing the direction for his counseling practice.

A masters degree at Saybrook University in Bellevue and an internship in Seattle WA gave him the chance to explore evidence based practices and collaborative treatment approaches.

“For me, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy was the real standout modality at grad school, it was my light bulb moment!”
