David E. Crone, PsyD
Dr. Crone arrived at Ashley nearly ten years ago. He brought to Ashley a diverse background and wealth of experience. Prior to coming to Ashley, he worked as a Department of Defense contractor for the United States Air Force as a clinical psychologist at Dover Air Force Base (DAFB) in Delaware. There, he treated active-duty Airmen and other branches of the military who were stationed at DAFB, as well as consulted to the Fisher House and Mortuary Affairs for fallen heroes. He treated many patients returning from deployments who suffered with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, and he oversaw neuropsychological screenings done pre and post deployments to assess for any cognitive impacts from incidents that occurred on deployment. Dr. Crone received many awards while at DAFB for his commitment and excellence in treatment. Before joining DAFB he was on medical staff at Christiana Care-Union Hospital and the Clinical Coordinator of three Intensive Outpatient Programs-two behavioral health and one chronic pain program all specializing in cognitive behavioral therapy.
Dr. Crone received his doctoral degree in clinical psychology from the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine with an emphasis on cognitive behavioral therapy. He trained at the Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in Wilmington Delaware. He also maintains a small private practice where he sees individuals across the lifespan with emphasis on anxiety, substance abuse, marriage therapy, and children. Dr. Crone has supervised residents, post-doc fellows, doctoral students in clinical psychology, master’s prepared students, and nursing students. Dr. Crone enjoys spending time with his wife and four children boating, skiing, golfing, his dogs, and all things Maryland sports.
