More about Crystal

  • 7 years' experience
  • Female
  • LISW

I am licensed in Ohio with 7 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger management, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I collaborate with my clients with the goal of working towards mental and physical well-being. I utilize a multimodal informed approach to treat the whole person, not just a symptom. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

My schedule includes Saturdays and Sundays with limited availability during the week.

I conduct sessions via video and phone. *See Below.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Crystal is an incredible provider with true compassion and empathy for her clients!

I have never connected better with a therapist than I have with Crystal. She makes me feel completely comfortable and safe in each of out sessions and really listens to what I have to say. Not only does she listen to me, but she always remembers the things I have told her in previous sessions unlike my other therapy experiences. I genuinely look forward to speaking with Crystal each week and look forward to messaging her when I am having a good or bad day. She truly goes above and beyond each session we have, as well as throughout the week when she doesn't have to. I have told so many people about Better Help and also just about her expertise in general. Crystal is truly a genuine, caring and helpful individual who is extremely devoted to her line of work in helping people. She is one of a kind!

I have only had a few sessions with Crystal however her direct communication and feedback has me empowered and trusting in this process. Crystal is helping me understand my feelings, she validates me by the detail, she shares openly about what I can expect and challenges me with role plays and assertive communication. I honestly feel like it was a blessing to be placed with her from BetterHelp. She’s clearly experienced and enjoys her work which I appreciate. Thank you
