About me

Hello! I am a licensed master level social worker. I have worked in the field for the last 8 years in different capacities such as children’s protective services, substance abuse, mental health, school social work and family preservation. My passion is to help all of my clients become the best version of themselves. I can’t wait to meet you and help you reach your fullest potential.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session we will take things at your pace. We will get to know each other and begin to talk about the challenges you are facing and your goals so we can form a plan together to move forward to transformation into your best self.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I take my time with clients and allow them to lead and determine the pace at which they are comfortable moving. A good working relationship is key to effective therapy.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I love working with clients of all ages. I use different approaches for different clients, whatever best fits your needs. I am laid back and easy to talk to. I enjoy helping clients sort through lives many challenges including family or relationship conflict, life transitions, anxiety, depression, parenting and so much more!

My treatment methods

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

Mindfulness based therapy helps to teach you to recognize feelings in your body and teaches you ways to be able to fully relax physically and mentally.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I utilize CBT approaches to teach clients how their thoughts influence their behavior and how to use that as a strength.

Motivational Interviewing

Motivation interviewing helps clients to realize their fullest potential and create solutions for themselves.

Supportive

I recognize that each individual is on their own journey. I strive to meet each client where they are at and support them through the whole therapy process.

Strength-Based

I help clients to utilize their strengths to their advantage to help over come weaknesses.

Krystal is always available to help with whatever issues arise through my week. I feel that her support through the messenger area is comforting to help me work through the situation better.

Krystal has helped me immensely with my post partum depression and anxiety in such a short time already. She is warm and authentic and genuine. She is a good listener and actively listens so that I feel heard and valued. She has great ideas and contributes excellent points to consider during our conversations.
