Crystal Hawkins, LPC
About me
I believe we are meant to thrive. One of my favorite things about counseling is that I get to assist people in coming to the realization of just how capable and amazing they really are. Beginning with the first appointment we work together to explore your needs and abilities. I work hard to provide you with a safe, supportive, nonjudgmental space where your sense of resilience can grow.
I use techniques and interventions from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and any other school of thought I come across that can help people. I am always looking for ways to improve and grow as a professional and as a person, and I encourage the same drive in my clients.
If you would like to schedule an appointment, please contact me. Let's work through things together.

Crystal is a wonderful therapist. She is perceptive, and she challenges me to grow and to reframe my perspective in a compassionate way. I have learned so much from our sessions and grown immensely as a result of referring to tools/strategies that we worked on together and putting them into practice. I highly recommend Crystal.

Crystal is amazing. I have only met with her one time and she was quickly able to establish trust with me. I am looking forward to my next session!

Crystal is truly an expert, each session I receive more knowledge of myself and the comfort and encouragement to grow within myself which benefits the relationships I have. Just so grateful and I would recommend her to anyone!

Crystal has worked me through a variety of hardships. She does so with such a calming demeanor and she is not afraid to ask questions in order to get through to me more effectively.

What a great therapist! She lets me move at my pace and checks on me in between. Shes an empathetic listener and asks me what I want to do and helps me figure out goals.

Crystal is a soft spoken but thoughtful therapist. I like how she listens and takes in all my thoughts and feelings and tries to get to the root of what’s really going on. Her questions are thought provoking.
