My name is Krystal, owner of Compassion Starts Within. I work with folks who deal with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, stress, low self esteem, minority stress, and more. Life is hard and everyone is doing their best; the folks I support struggle to believe that their current best is enough and they feel defeated. They might be dealing with a negative internal dialogue stemming from past trauma or unattainable familial/societal expectations. Instead of making comparisons or fighting to "fit the mold" we find ways to make things work for us.

Do racing thoughts keep you up at night? Are you constantly worrying? Does everything you do need to be perfect? Do you struggle with change or uncertainty? Are you restless? Having trouble sleeping? Relationship troubles? Fred Rogers once said, “Anything that’s human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary.”

Sometimes life can be overwhelming and it can be difficult to know how to make things "feel better." I work with teenagers and adults to help them build coping skills, better manage emotions, and improve relationships. Each client is different and therefore there is no "one size fits all" approach. I will meet you where you feel comfortable and work with you to achieve your goals at your pace. It can be hard to imagine that things will improve when we're going through hard times, but I believe progress is possible for all my clients.

As someone who suffered from anxiety & trauma, I can tell you that I spent years looking for the right therapist & I just wanted results. I knew I had the potential to achieve so much more and create a life that I was excited about living, but I didn’t know where to start. I saw many therapists over the years & I was sick of just TALKING & re-living things over and over without seeing improvement. Finally, I met a therapist that changed my life. He introduced me to brainspotting, & IFS. I was skeptical at first but I was open minded & tried it out. I learned that trauma is stored in the body & that talk therapy doesn’t address that.
