Hey! You’re seeking help because it is needed. That’s huge! Many people don’t seek treatment or therapy but you’re already on this path. Some folks don’t find the path. You’ve got some idea of what you need and are ready for someone to be along with you on this journey. We both know humans succeed in a team not so much when we are alone. First, give yourself credit because it takes a lot of courage to not do things alone and to be willing to open up to someone you do not know. Your courage is where our journey together starts. It would be an honor to be a part of your team in life, for life!

Do you feel like your anxiety or depression takes over at the worst possible moments? Are you finding it difficult to feel growth in managing trauma responses? Are you seeking a safe and brave space for therapy that utilizes somatic movements and exploration of intersectional identity affiliations and alliances?


I help individuals gain self-awareness and management of anxiety and depression. I offer aid unpacking trauma with options in exploring mindful movement and feeling present in the body. I assist exploration of intersectional identity (i.e., which is open to race, religion, spirituality, LGBTQIA+, and other identity affiliations/alliances).


If you would like to learn more about my experiences working with clients in navigating through these struggles, or credentials, I encourage you to click on the website for www.crystalcsw.com
