Hi, there! I go by "M.A.," though I have other nicknames, too. I'm a licensed family therapist and a licensed psychologist; I completed my graduate education programs in Miami, FL. I work from a multigenerational family systems approach and incorporate psychodramatic (& sociometric) methods into my clinical work; these are each relational in theory, in reality/in practice, and in the healing process. I believe in establishing clear boundaries and learning what someone's emotional needs are, so that they can make healthy choices and potentially get grounded as often as necessary. I've been a psychotherapist for more than 30 years. This has included working with many different groups of people in various settings (e.g., private psychotherapy, inpatient drug treatment, high school counseling program, county drug treatment, outpatient psychotherapy, women's prison, drug court treatment, etc.). My focus at times has been on healing past personal trauma (e.g., sexual abuse/incest, rape, domestic violence, etc.), as well as anxiety, stress, depression, and borderline personality disorder - among other daily life challenges. I look forward to beginning my work with you and hope you'll ask me questions about anything that will facilitate a useful & relevant experience in therapy for you, personally. I hope to hear from you soon!

Welcome, I’m truly honored to support you in creating your best life. We all have something we’re working on or working through, and it’s my goal to help guide you through that journey. I believe we each possess unique strengths—sometimes hidden—that, once recognized, can transform the way we approach life’s challenges. As a divorced single mother, I’ve experienced the many facets of life—the beauty, the hardship, and everything in between. It’s this combination of personal experience and professional training that allows me to connect with and support my clients in a deep and meaningful way. I use a variety of therapeutic modalities, tailoring your experience to you—because no two people are the same, and therapy should reflect that. I specialize in areas such as divorce, separation, anxiety, trauma, and depression. I genuinely look forward to meeting you and working together to help you move closer to the goals you have for yourself. Once we schedule your first session, I’ll ask you to complete two brief forms: a HIPAA form and an intake questionnaire. This intake allows me to gain a holistic understanding of who you are so that we can begin our work together with clarity and intention right from the start. Warmly, Crystal Rischer MSW, LCSW
