Crystal Paredes

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I have been an independently licensed professional counselor since 2012. As an independently licensed professional counselor I offer support services to empower each person and/or family to fully function in society by assisting all people to reach their potential through a life-long learning process. The nature of my work permits me to perform a variety of care services including but not limited to: individual therapy, family therapies, couples therapy, long-term counseling services, crisis and short-term brief therapy, consultation, coaching and training. I use problem solving, goal-directed strategies to help persons resolve challenges in their lives. I also draw evidence based practices that are founded in the following (but not limited to) theories: Cognitive Behavioral Theory, Dialectical Behavioral Theory, solution-focused therapy, and play therapy. I am also trained as a mental health first aid trainer and verbal de-escalation trainer.

I graduated from the University of Wyoming in 2005 with a B.A. in psychology. I completed my M.S. in mental health counseling from Walden University in 2010 and I am pursuing a PhD in Healthcare Administration.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people want to know whether remote counseling can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or major life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions. A key benefit is flexibility – clients can choose the mode of connection that fits their needs and schedule, whether that means video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability makes it easier to keep up with therapy even when life is busy. All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists if they feel a different fit would be better. Online therapy can offer a practical, accessible way to receive evidence-based support for everyday mental health concerns.
