Hello! I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist through the state of Florida with a passion for helping my clients heal broken relationships with themselves and others. We all struggle, and we all could use a confidant, sounding board, mediator, and encourager on our team - this is where I come in! I have had 11 years of experience in the field of counseling since graduating with my Master's in Counselor Education and Specialist in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Florida in 2012. After graduate school, I completed my registered intern hours at a mental health hospital, working with severely mentally ill patients. Once licensed, I became a Primary Therapist at an eating disorder treatment center, where I counseled clients with disordered eating, as well as comorbidity with depression, anxiety, and OCD for 3 years. With these clients, I did extensive group therapy and family therapy work in conjunction with their individual counseling. Since 2020, I have run my own private practice with a focus on relationship issues and attachment styles. I became certified in Integrated Attachment Theory in 2024. In my work with both individuals and couples, we uncover the core wounds behind their attachment styles and work toward healing said wounds and becoming more securely attached, which can lead to improved mental health and healthier relationships. Whether I am working with an individual, couple, or family, I am always assessing the role each person's ingrained beliefs obtained from family of origin are playing in his or her life and relationships. Though coping skills are crucial, I will assist you in addressing the underlying belief system that is driving the symptoms. I look at things from a systemic perspective, taking all impactful relationships and the beliefs that arose from those relationships into consideration. My mission is to leave people better than I found them. Together, let’s improve your life!

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

I am licensed in Florida and Georgia with 25 years of professional experience working with individuals and couples. Most of my experience is in helping clients with relationship issues--challenging the status quo, making connections, and in some cases separating or divorcing. Some of my former clients tell me they like my directness as we work together. If you have not explored your individual issues, I can help with those too. I am not a good fit for clients with addiction, domestic violence or faith-based issues. I prefer to work with clients who are ready to move beyond the "stable" ambiquity that characterizes their current lives--stuck in what is instead of moving to what feels more satisfying. I will tailor our conversation and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy takes courage and I applaud you for getting started!
