Crystal D. Hatton, MA, LPC, NCC, ACS
Crystal holds a Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from George Fox University and previously earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a focus on Family Studies from Corban University. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with the Oregon Board of Licensed Professional Counselors and Therapists (License #C6821) and a National Certified Counselor (NCC #1737402). In addition, Crystal is an Approved Clinical Supervisor (#ACS-5728) and an Oregon board-approved supervisor. While counseling is rarely a quick fix, it is a personalized, trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, and integrated approach to help you, which may include Restoration Therapy, Interpersonal Neurobiology, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy.
On a personal note, Crystal is married to her high school sweetheart, and they now have two sons in high school, each with his own unique personality. As a family, they enjoy trips to the Oregon coast and exploring the beautiful waterfalls of the Pacific Northwest. They also have a mini husky (Alaskan Klee Kai) who, as a “forever puppy,” is undoubtedly the family favorite! Crystal is a deep thinker who values meaningful conversations that challenge both herself and others to learn, grow, and rise strong through life’s challenges.
Crystal would be honored to learn more about you, hear your story, and walk with you on your journey to Rising Strong!
