About Crystal

Crystal Forget is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on building clearer communication and stronger emotional connections. She creates a calm space where people can talk about what matters most and begin practical steps toward change.

Background and approach

She uses the Gottman Method alongside approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral work, and client-centered care. Sessions aim to help people manage anxiety, stress, depression, and the effects of trauma.

Crystal also supports people dealing with addiction and relationship struggles, including improving communication and repairing intimacy. Her style is straightforward and compassionate.

She listens first, then helps clients set small, doable goals. Skills training and real-world practice are common parts of sessions so progress carries into everyday life.

Crystal brings three years of professional experience and holds LCSW and CSW credentials in Colorado. She blends emotion-focused work with practical behavior strategies to address mood disorders, attachment concerns, and issues like guilt, shame, or impulsivity.

Common topics she addresses include post-traumatic stress, social anxiety, body image, and life purpose. She also works with people facing divorce or separation and supports women’s issues and self-love work.

The emphasis is on steady steps and clearer choices. People meet with her by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Sessions follow a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and what online sessions look like

Crystal integrates the Gottman Method with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered techniques. The Gottman Method focuses on practical communication tools and exercises that help partners understand patterns and rebuild connection. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying values and taking committed action. Client-centered work centers the person’s experience and uses empathic listening to guide change.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each client about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they’ll try methods and adjust the plan based on what works in real life rather than relying on a single method from the start.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video is useful for deeper conversation and practicing interaction skills, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options help people fit therapy into busy days and pick the format that best matches their needs.
