About Christal
She focuses on practical, straightforward therapy. Sessions emphasize understanding how past experiences shape current feelings and behaviors. Christal uses that insight to help people set goals and try new ways of coping when life feels overwhelming.
Clients often come for issues such as stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and addiction. She also supports people dealing with grief, sleep problems, parenting strain, anger, career transitions, bipolar challenges, and ADHD. Additional focuses include attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, codependency, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and blended family issues.
Christal draws on approaches like attachment-based work, client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, emotionally-focused methods, and mindfulness. She encourages regular communication between sessions and aims to respond to messages within 24 hours when possible. Her style is direct, compassionate, and goal-oriented for those ready to engage in change.
To begin, a client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules according to her availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and she accepts international clients who can connect from outside the United States.

How Christal’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy
Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in close relationships. It helps people see how early bonds shape reactions today and supports building safer ways of relating. Client-centered therapy centers the person’s experience and uses active listening to help clients find their own solutions. This approach is helpful for people who need acceptance and space to process. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It uses clear, practical tools to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful habits.Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the therapy process. Christal works collaboratively to decide what fits a client's goals and preferences. Together they try strategies, check what helps, and adjust the plan based on what is working.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know how she is meeting with clients. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, since they reduce travel time and can be scheduled around work or caregiving. They also allow for shorter check-ins when needed and let people choose whether to be on camera. If you want to explore working remotely, ask about available formats when you match and schedule.
