Hello, I’m Crys (she/her). I aim to be an unusual therapist. I harness imagination, energy, enthusiasm, poetry, and humour in my effort to understand your story and elevate your voice. Whether you are considering the past, the present, or the future, I believe that therapeutic conversations can expand the options, responses, and actions we have available to us to heal ourselves heart, mind, and spirit. It is a privilege to come alongside you and join you in this journey. I practice the art of paying attention, which means what you say to me and who you are- is extremely important to me. I will work hard during our time together to listen, to understand, and to help.
I practice Feminist Narrative Therapy, which means my work is focused and targeted, and detailed oriented. I consider contextual factors that contribute to distress. I am a trained Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapist and use EMDR along with Internal Family Systems and Ego State therapy to address significant trauma recent and past.
I am a Queer woman and am enthusiastically Queer and Trans Affirming. I also recognize my role in the colonization of Canada’s First Peoples and the marginalization of POC. I work hard to acknowledge my privileges and to center your lived experience and individual rights, particularly for those who have had those rights violated and carry generational wounds.
