Meet Our Therapists
Crystal has always been a people person. From childhood, she enjoyed spending time listening to and learning about people’s stories. She has spent most of her adult life as an accountant. However, she found that her true passion was sitting with her clients, not behind a computer, because her relationships with them weren’t always about numbers.
She is married and has two teenage children. She enjoys spending time with her family, reading, traveling, and going to the lake. Crystal is thankful for every opportunity to learn through extra courses and involvement in memberships, committees, and boards, which enables her to help facilitate change and growth in her community.
Crystal completed her degree in the Master of Arts Counselling program at Providence University College & Theological Seminary. She is a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) through the Canadian Counselling & Psychotherapy Association (CCPA) and a member of the International OCD Foundation (IOCDF). She is an ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider (ADHD-CCSP). She has also taken additional coursework in Child and Adolescent Therapy, Chronic Pain, and Psychopharmacology.
Crystal has a natural ability to put her clients at ease. She recognizes how important the therapeutic relationship is and is not there to “fix” clients but to journey with them on a path to healing. She is interested in working with a variety of clients.
Crystal is a Canadian Certified Counsellor. She is also a provider for the Workers Compensation Board of Manitoba, Manitoba Public Insurance, HEB Manitoba, and an Employee Assistance Program provider for Dialogue.
