Meet Chrystal

I am a passionate, determined counselor who strives to help her clients achieve their therapeutic goals.  As the first in my family to complete a college degree from the University of Connecticut, I understand the significance of mental health care for a mind in need.

Why should someone choose to work with me?  

​My clinical approach centers on assisting clients with ADHD through personalized therapy and support. I am dedicated to helping clients understand the effects of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and crafting tailored treatment plans. I specialize in behavioral management and cognitive-behavioral therapy. My treatment approach is designed to enhance clients' coping mechanisms and organizational skills, helping them navigate personal, academic, or professional challenges. Fundamental to my approach is the establishment of strong, empathetic relationships and the creation of a supportive, non-judgmental environment.

I offer a fresh perspective and bring a contemporary outlook to our work together. My academic training equips me with the latest theoretical insights and evidence-based practices, enabling me to offer innovative approaches to addressing your concerns.  I provide personalized attention to our work together, a flexible schedule, and more time for in-depth discussion and tailored interventions that work best for my clients. I completed my internship with Steady Compass Counseling Services (Previously Eclectic Balance).

 I bring enthusiasm and dedication to the work with my clients. This, in turn, translates into a high level of commitment, ensuring unwavering support throughout my work with clients.  I receive rigorous training in cultural competency and diversity, enabling me to approach your concerns with sensitivity and an open-minded perspective. As a result, I strive to create a safe and inclusive space for clients from various backgrounds.
