A note from Crystal
Greetings, my name is Crystal Anderson-Shrieves, LCSW, a National Practice Provider here at Talkspace and a dedicated and empathetic therapist with a passion for helping individuals navigate life's challenges and achieve personal growth. With over 18 years of experience in the field of mental health, I have worked with a diverse range of clients, from adolescents struggling with anxiety to adults coping with depression and relationship issues. My therapeutic approach could be described as both eclectic and person-centered in nature while grounded in evidence-based practices, particularly Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I believe that our thoughts and beliefs have a profound impact on our emotions and behaviors. Through our work together, you will learn to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns, while also promoting greater relaxation and improved emotional regulation. My warm and non-judgmental style creates a safe space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings while tailoring my approach to meet your needs and goals as the unique individual that you are. While I do understand that seeking therapy can be a courageous step, I am committed to guiding you on your challenging, yet rewarding journey of self-discovery and personal transformation. In my free time, I enjoy practicing meditation and spending quality time with my several pets and family. I believe strongly in the power of self-care and strive to inspire you to prioritize your mental health and overall well-being. If you're looking for a compassionate and experienced therapist to support you on your mental health journey, I am here to help.
