LMFT, 10 years of experience
Hi, I’m Shan Croft, a licensed therapist in Georgia. Are you seeking a safe space to authentically express yourself? I create a comfortable environment where we can engage in meaningful dialogue about your experiences and challenges. With a diverse background in inpatient, outpatient, school, military, and remote settings, I have helped clients navigate a range of issues, including depression, anxiety, self-esteem, trauma, relationship difficulties, and career challenges. My therapeutic approach is collaborative, supportive, and solution-focused. Together, we’ll work to connect and reframe thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that may be holding you back from living a fulfilling life. I’m committed to respecting your unique journey and tailoring our sessions to your specific needs. When you're ready to take the next step toward healing, I’m here to support and encourage you every step of the way. Let’s embark on this journey together.
In our first session together, we will have brief introduction and discuss expectations for therapy. Afterwards, I will assess specific challenges that have led you to therapy and gather a history of the dynamic of the specific issues identified. This will assist me in creating a specific plan/direction in which we will best benefit from working together.
Strength areas: self-esteem, communication, relationships, trauma, depression, family challenges, and adjusting to life changes.
I enjoy working with adults who are in a transitional space in their lives. My clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to get out of opposition with the transition and embrace the challenge.
As a clinician I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy as a modality to assist clients in identifying the connections between their thoughts and behaviors. I support my clients in understanding how to shift their thoughts and attitude to befit more effective satisfying behaviors and ways of being.
Re-writing your story in an integral part of becoming the bestest and most authentic version of yourself. As a therapist, I like to assist my clients in exploring how narrative therapy can be a powerful tool in helping them develop altered meaning to the life experiences they have had and continue to have to help them recognize how it helps to add strength to their persona. My goal is to challenge unhealthy narratives by assisting clients in discovering their strengths and highlighting their true potential. I strive to assist clients in seeing that they are not the issue; the problem is the issue.
Do you feel that trauma has left you feeling trapped in a desolate place, isolated, disconnected, or even apathetic? Yes, unhealed trauma has a tendency to do that. Causing great feelings of being overwhelmed or even misunderstood by others or by self. Well I am hear to transform you into a better you. Trauma Focused CBT helps the client learn how to modify unhelpful, critical, or distorted thoughts, and to shift maladaptive behaviors and reactions to triggers.

I love my therapist so much! She makes me laugh, she challenges my thoughts and makes me feel like whatever I am going through, I can get through it. I have been seeing Ms.Croft for about two years and her advice has made a very positive impact on my life. I look forward to continuing to use the lessons she has taught me in my daily life.

Shan has a very comforting presence which allows you to be open and honest during your session. The experience is none judgemental but still informative while providing opportunities to learn new skills.
