More about Crystal

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMFT

I weave Western evidence-based approaches with Eastern and holistic practices to support healing for both mind and body. I show up with warmth, clarity, and cultural humility, creating a grounded space where clients feel seen, safe, and empowered. I integrate mindfulness, somatic awareness, and practical coping skills to help clients understand their patterns, strengthen self-trust, and move toward alignment, resilience, and authentic well-being. I offer virtual sessions across CA and in-person sessions in Upland.
