About Chrystal
Hi, I’m Chrystal. I work with children, teens, and adults who may be struggling with anxiety, life transitions, self-esteem, relationship challenges, trauma, or feeling overwhelmed by life’s demands. I earned my master’s degree in counseling psychology with a focus in trauma and addiction from Fisher College and have experience working in a variety of settings, including preschool and early childhood programs, inpatient adolescent treatment, outpatient therapy, and group practice.
Why did you decide to work in mental health?
I was drawn to this field through a combination of personal experiences and genuine curiosity about the human experience. I have always been fascinated by how people make meaning of their lives, navigate challenges, and grow through difficult experiences. This curiosity, combined with my own appreciation for the healing power of connection and self-understanding, led me to pursue a career in therapy. I believe healing often happens when people feel safe enough to their life experiences without judgement. I am continually inspired by the resilience of the individual I work with and value the opportunity to help others reconnect with their strengths, find balance, and create meaningful change in their lives.
Why did you choose to work with The Psyched Group?
I chose the Psyched Group because of its commitment to providing thoughtful, creative, and holistic care that honors each individual's unique journey. I appreciate the practice's openness to diverse therapeutic approaches and its recognition that healing often involves more than just symptom reduction - it involves helping people create healthier, more connected, and more meaningful lives. The Psyched Group's values align closely with my own belief that therapy should support the whole person while fostering growth and finding joy in the journey to self-discovery.
