Krystin Cuthrell is a Licensed Professional Counselor whose work is shaped by a lifelong connection to movement and creative expression. She began her career as a ballet instructor and later spent more than a decade teaching yoga, experiences that deepened her understanding of embodiment, compassion, and the mind–body relationship.

She earned her master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Jacksonville State University in 2023 and is currently pursuing her PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision at the University of the Cumberlands. Krystin primarily supports traditional and non‐traditional college students, specializing in religious trauma, body‐image concerns, identity development, self‐compassion, and LGBTQIA+‐affirming care.

Grounded in expressive arts and mindful, strengths‐based approaches, she also presents at local and state-wide conferences on the importance of self‐care for helping professionals.

I am a Clinical Social Worker licensed in Alabama with experience collaborating with people of all ages to identify values, strengths, and needs, and to help empower them to live their best lives, whatever that looks like for them. I love working with people from all walks of life, and I specialize in LGBTQ+ health, life after trauma, and those living with low income, disability, and other barriers.

I am a licensed professional counselor in Georgia and Alabama and have been working as a therapist for 16 years. Currently, I am only seeing female clients in order to align with my clinical focus. As a Christian therapist, I specialize in faith-integrated counseling for women who wish to bring their spirituality into sessions. I offer therapy that integrates biblical principles with evidence-based practices, helping clients align their mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. While this is my area of specialty, I work with individuals from all walks of life and honor each client’s unique beliefs and values.

My experience is broad in that I have worked with clients of all ages with a variety of issues and diagnoses, especially with those facing trauma, recovering from addictions, coping with anxiety and depression, and moving through life changes such as grief and relationship/family changes. I hope to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to take the first steps towards change, and I am here to support you in your journey.
