Crystal is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who specializes in trauma-informed care, internal family systems, and somatic experiencing. Specific populations she works with are adults with trauma, LGBTQ+, and minority populations. She shows up each day to help be part of the change she wants to see in the world, and says that the best part of her job is knowing that she can offer a safe space to be for a moment for people who may not have that anywhere else. Her main goal everyday is just to show up and be present with her clients, holding space for them as a guide, so they have a place to start or to continue along on their healing journey.
In her free time, Crystal enjoys music, art, dancing, and writing, along with all forms of creative expression that spark joy in her. A fun fact about Crystal, she states that she is a published poet, enjoys performing at open mic nights around Albuquerque, and hosting local dance nights. Crystal is also a certified natural therapeutic specialist and a licensed massage therapist.
