About Daphne Crawford, LCSW

Greetings from the hills of Tennessee. My home is in the Knoxville area where I have been providing psychotherapy services to adults, teens, and families since 2002. Years ago, while at a crossroad in my own life, I glimpsed a tiny plaque on a friend’s shelf that said “And so she decided to build the life she imagined.” Those words resonated within me and became a central theme in my practice, supporting others to build the life they imagine.

A woman with curly white hair, glasses, and hoop earrings is smiling in front of a black, tufted background, reflecting the warmth and approachability found at Choices Psychotherapy’s mental health services.

I have experience working within multiple behavioral health settings including community mental health, intensive outpatient groups, residential treatment, outpatient therapy, and employee assistance programs. I serve individuals and families with a wide variety of needs such as depression, anxiety, mood disorders, obsessive compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, borderline personality disorder, substance abuse, problems adjusting to life transitions, self harming behaviors, problems with anger, relationship problems, parenting challenges, and coping with the stress of navigating the complexities of everyday life in the modern world.

I am deeply invested in supporting others who wish to alleviate suffering. I have obtained certification in Dialectical Behavior Therapy and have training and experience with exposure therapy, somatic experiencing, Radically Open DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I am committed to lifelong learning and the pursuit of education and training in order to provide evidence-based treatments that work.

I am genuinely excited to work with the Choices team and for the opportunity to serve Minnesota residents via telehealth.
