Great to meet you!

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, especially when you're already carrying a lot. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, grief,

attention issues, or simply feeling stuck, you don't have to navigate alone. I'm Chrystene Thomas, a Licensed Therapist with over 15 years of experience, and I'd love

to help you find your way forward. Let's connect.

My approach to therapy

With over 15 years in medical and behavioral health settings, I've seen how much practical tools can change things. My approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy. In our sessions, we look at patterns that may be keeping you stuck and build concrete strategies tailored to your life. I hold advanced CBT training through the Cleveland Institute of Cognitive Therapy, so you can expect a focused, evidence-based experience grounded in real-world application.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is a conversation, not an evaluation. I'll ask about what brought you here and what you're hoping to change, and we'll map out a path that feels right for you: understanding what's driving the challenges, spotting patterns, and building practical strategies for real, lasting change. My goal is to offer a warm, supportive and

nonjudgmental space where you can talk openly. You'll leave that first session feeling heard and with a clear sense of what comes next.
