 Regain Control Of Your Life To Experience the Emotional Wellness You Deserve

Just as seasons change, life presents change along with challenges. Learning to sit with emotions from the residue of life's “unpredictability” can be overwhelming and exhausting.

The question is ... how do we maintain emotional wellness through it all? 

We believe in the power of therapy to empower individuals, enabling them to regain control, foster personal growth, and achieve emotional well-being.

CHILDREN, TEENS, AND ADULTS

Specialty & Expertise

01 Anxiety

Anxiety can feel like an endless cycle of worry and fear, impacting every part of our lives. Recognizing signs like excessive worrying, restlessness, difficulty sleeping, and physical symptoms is crucial. Therapy can help identify triggers and develop coping mechanisms for greater peace and fulfillment.

Traumatic events, regardless of intensity and duration, leave a lasting impact. Long-term effects can affect relationships, work, and overall well-being, leading to symptoms such as anxiety, depression, intrusive thoughts, and flashbacks. Trauma therapy facilitates healing and moving forward from these experiences.

Life transitions bring various emotions and challenges.

Crystal Manning black female therapist Baton Rouge Louisiana

I’M SO GLAD YOU ARE HERE

Hello! I’m Crystal.

I help children, and adults get to know and understand their core and authentic selves before the onset of anxiety, depression, and traumas. I am a therapist, but also human. This gives me the ability to understand the importance of the healing journey in its rarest form.

I have an understanding both professionally and personally of how environmental stressors, attachment issues, trauma and its effect on development in children into adulthood. These stressors can affect one's overall well-being. However, I have the belief that doing the work to heal wounded parts of ourselves can assist with growing healthier families, relationships, but most of all SELF.
