As a clinical therapist I am currently working with children, adults, seniors and families of all ages. My goal is to provide a warm welcoming safe space that strives to create a calm comforting non judgmental environment to explore difficult emotions from experiences, life events, transitions, communication challenges, relationship challenges and much more. I value courage, self determination, curiosity, self reflection, helping others reflect upon their inner selves, creativity, diversity, and a sense of humor. My style includes person centered, strength based and a whole person approach exploring current struggles or symptoms along with exploring the originating source of the issue of concern in a gentle safe environment. Crystal incorporates play therapy, self care, mindfulness, grounding, exploring negative beliefs and cognitions, Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TF-CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and talk therapy while instilling hope into sessions. Crystal offers a calm, collaborative and gentle but direct approach. She is always expanding on her knowledge and values new approaches and modalities of therapy to advantage her clients in new developments in mental health care, multiple options of treatment and self improvement. I believe that therapy should be tailored to each individual's needs as each person is unique and should be valued as such.
