About me

Hi - I’m Crystal. It sure is complicated to be an adult these days. We are surrounded by chaos, catastrophe, uncertainty – on top of regular life expectations of work, relationships and family. The canned response of “increase your self-care” is much easier said than done. Co-existing with anxiety and/or depression has become a way of life. Sometimes just having a person to rely on to listen to your struggles would make the difference. As someone well versed in anxiety, therapy is a huge help. If you are looking for someone to hold space for you or if you are looking for tools to apply in your life, please reach out to set up your first appointment.

Get to know me

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

Our first session gives us the opportunity to explore what your expectations for therapy will be. My approach is conversational, minimal homework and maximum emotional exploration.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I specialize in working with anyone struggling to constantly answer the "What If's." I provide compassionate, non judgmental and supportive space to find the internal resiliency to get through what you are going through.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

First responders Military / military families Wives / mothers Daughters of generational trauma

Crystal is very open minded in her approach to help me get to where I need to be. I love how warm and funny she is. She’s a pleasure to work with I feel like I’m making improvements during every session. I would recommend Crystal to anyone looking for mental health help.
