Our Team

Charles Crane is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and co-owner of Lighthouse Youth & Family Therapy alongside his wife of 25 years. As a husband, father of five, and therapist with more than 18 years of experience, he understands the importance of strong, healthy relationships. Charles enjoys working with children, teens, adults, couples, and families facing anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral concerns, relationship challenges, and life transitions. He also provides clinical supervision for therapists working toward independent licensure.

Charles believes the therapeutic relationship is one of the most important parts of successful therapy. He creates a safe, genuine environment where clients feel comfortable being vulnerable because he believes lasting healing begins there.

Outside the office, Charles enjoys hunting, fishing, basketball, and spending time with his family playing board games and card games. Clients appreciate his calm, steady presence, fun-loving personality, and ability to help people feel at ease.

Stacy Crane is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and co-owner of Lighthouse Youth & Family Therapy alongside her husband of 25 years. As a wife and mother of five, she understands both the joys and challenges that come with family life. Stacy primarily works with adults, especially parents, while also enjoying work with children, teens, and older adults. She helps clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, parenting challenges, relationship concerns, and major life transitions.

Stacy believes there is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. She tailors counseling to each person’s unique needs, strengths, and goals while creating a space where clients feel comfortable being themselves. She has advanced training in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), a trauma-focused approach that can help reduce emotional distress and process difficult experiences.

Outside the office, Stacy enjoys spending time with family and friends, music, dancing, and karaoke. She also spent a year living in Brazil, giving her a lasting appreciation for different cultures and perspectives. Stacy also speaks Portuguese. Clients often describe her as genuine, compassionate, and easy to talk with.

He enjoys working with teens, adults, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral concerns, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Jake also has a special interest in helping individuals and couples heal from sexual addiction, pornography use, betrayal trauma, and broken trust.

Jake’s counseling style is warm, practical, and collaborative. He integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) to help clients build healthier coping skills, strengthen relationships, and move toward lasting change. He believes people are never defined by their hardest moments and that healing begins with honest conversations in a safe, judgment-free environment.

Outside the office, Jake enjoys spending time with his wife of more than 20 years and their five children. Music, musical theatre, and the outdoors are important parts of family life, and he enjoys sharing those experiences with the people he loves.
