Kyanite Counseling & Wellness
Compassionate, Person-Centered Therapy for Healing and Growth
Therapy Services
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to navigate life's challenges alone. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to move forward.
Every individual brings their own experiences, strengths, and goals into therapy. Together, we'll create a personalized approach that helps you build resilience, process difficult experiences, and develop practical tools for lasting growth.
Whether you're navigating anxiety, trauma, life transitions, or exploring your identity, therapy is a collaborative journey and I'm honored to walk alongside you.

Choosing a therapist is an important decision. This complimentary consultation gives us the opportunity to get to know one another, discuss what brings you to therapy, and determine whether we're a good fit to work together. It's also a chance for you to ask questions and feel comfortable before scheduling your first appointment.
-
Your first appointment is a 60-minute Comprehensive Clinical Assessment (CCA).
During this session we'll discuss:
What brings you to therapy
Your personal history
Current challenges
Personal strengths
Therapy goals
A personalized treatment plan
This assessment creates the foundation for the work we'll do together and helps ensure your therapy is tailored to your unique needs.
-
Following your assessment, therapy sessions are typically 60 minutes in length.
I provide person-centered, solution-focused counseling, meeting you where you are each session while helping you work toward the goals we've established together.
Treatment approaches may include:
Person-Centered Therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
Strength-Based Interventions
Solution-Focused Therapy
Every therapy journey is unique, and sessions are adapted to meet your individual needs.

By accessing the brain's natural ability to heal, Brainspotting can help clients process unresolved experiences, reduce emotional distress, and support long-term healing.

Together, we'll work toward creating meaningful, lasting change at a pace that feels right for you.

Complete your Comprehensive Clinical Assessment.
Your first therapy appointment is a 60-minute Comprehensive Clinical Assessment (CCA), where we'll take the time to explore your personal history, current challenges, strengths, and what has brought you to therapy.

Client Testimonials
“Working with Crystal to process my trauma was the single best decision I have made in my 47 years on this planet. After meeting weekly for a little over a year I can honestly say I feel more healed and whole than ever before.
I was not new to therapy, I had tried many modalities and providers over the years but Crystal was the first one to really open my eyes to what trauma is and how it affects us. I never thought healing was possible for me after so many failed attempts to get better.
I am forever grateful to Crystal for the freedom and healing I was able to achieve by working with her. I highly recommend Kyanite Counseling to anyone looking to heal their trauma and better understand themselves.”
“My experience with Crystal as my clinical supervisor has been incredibly valuable. She has helped me work through complex and challenging clinical situations, walked me through managing crises, and helped me determine the most appropriate course of action when I’ve needed support. I truly believe her guidance has helped me grow as a clinician and provide thoughtful, clinically appropriate care to my clients.”
““Crystal has helped me with navigating challenging family dynamics and major life changes. I was looking for specific tools and skills to help me build better boundaries and deal with complicated emotions, not just a place to talk, and Crystal does an amazing job offering both. I always feel lighter at the end of my session."
