Crystal wholeheartedly believes in the positive changes counselling can make. Having a caring, supportive professional in your life who listens without judgement, advocates for you and keeps you accountable can see you through the big and small struggles that we all inevitably encounter. Using warmth, authenticity and humour she aims to partner with you as you experience change and growth in your life. She values inclusivity and feminism and welcomes clients from all genders, ethnicities, sexual orientations, and relationship arrangements.

Her areas of specialization are sex-related issues and sexual health, including concerns with low sexual desire/drive, sexual pain, sexual dysfunction, as well as relationship difficulties like infidelity, boundaries, and communication. She also has extensive experience with anxiety, depression, stress management, and self-esteem/self-compassion.

Incorporating evidence-based therapeutic modalities, she applies what suits you and your life circumstances best. These include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Emotion-Focused Couples Therapy. She also draws from the Gottman method when working with couples.

In her free time, she enjoys sewing, baking, spending time outdoors, and family game night with her 3 teenage children and husband.
