Crystal Thompson, LPC
About me
I am a Substance Use Disorder Therapist and Mental Health Therapist licensed in the State of Pennsylvania with over 9 years of experience working as a counselor and social worker. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, substance use, relationship issues, parenting problems, life changes, OCD, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
I received my Master's degree from the University of Slippery Rock in Pennsylvania in the field of Community Counseling with a specialization in Addictions. My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive behavioral, motivational interviewing, person-centered, and humanistic; in which my clients are seen as the expert in their lives, while I assist and guide you through inner knowing, interpersonal changes, and healing. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!
