Crystal Luster
M.A., LPC-A, Practice owner
What if therapy was the fresh start you've been looking for? Anxiety, stress, and life's changes can feel overwhelming. Choosing to seek support is a powerful step, and one to be proud of. My clients come ready for something different, and together we create a space to explore, heal, and grow. If you're ready to take that first step, I'm here to support you.
I work closely with each client to begin healing from past wounds, rebuild confidence, and gain clarity. Through a warm, collaborative approach that blends Person-Centered, Holistic, and CBT techniques, I provide a safe and supportive space for meaningful growth and self-discovery.
As a Black woman, I know how important it is to feel comfortable and understood in therapy. My role is to walk alongside you in the process, and provide the support, insight, and tools you need to grow into the version of yourself you want to be. If this resonates, l'd love to connect, just send me an email or book your free
consultation today!
