About me

I have been practicing in the field for over a decade. I have specialized training in trauma, addictions, relationship enhancement, marital and premarital. I work with adults, and couples. I have a heart for seeing relationships thrive. I believe Love is Enough. I will walk along side you through transitions, hurt, pain, and making sense of the present and complex situations.

My treatment methods

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

With EFT, you will learn to understand what a negative cycle is, how it leads to disconnect, miss understanding and relational distance. Our sessions are interactive. After sessions, clients will leave with tools to apply out of office in effort to resist old patterns and move towards connection.

Intelligent conversation. Krystal really knows what she is doing and noticed things I didn't see even in our first session. I'm really excited to work with her.
