02 · In Crystal's own words

What Crystal says about the work

Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.

I’m Rayne, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC) dedicated to helping people find healing, balance, and renewed purpose. At the heart of my practice is a belief that transformation is possible for everyone. Whether you’re navigating addiction, trauma, stress, or major life transitions, I offer a safe, compassionate space where you can process emotions, rebuild confidence, and move toward the life you want to live.

My approach integrates faith, psychology, and holistic wellness to address the whole person-mind, body, and spirit. I draw from evidence-based modalities including CBT, MBCT, ACT, SFBT, MI, and TSF, and I also bring the tools and mindfulness practices I’ve developed as a life coach and Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT-200).

My passion for this work is deeply personal. Having experienced my own journey through addiction and self-doubt, I understand how painful-and ultimately transformative-the healing process can be. By God’s grace, I’ve found restoration, and that experience continues to shape how I walk alongside others in theirs. My mission is to empower you to develop healthy coping strategies, strengthen your relationships, and reconnect with your sense of hope and purpose.

I specialize in working with individuals who are managing co-occurring disorders, and I strive to create a nonjudgmental, inclusive space for clients of all faith backgrounds-or none at all. My goal is simply to meet you where you are and support you in becoming the healthiest, most authentic version of yourself.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of North Texas and a Master of Science in Addiction Counseling from Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. I am also a National Certified Counselor (NCC) and a proud member of several professional organizations, including the American Counseling Association (ACA), NAADAC, TAAP, AACC, Phi Kappa Phi, Alpha Eta Honor Society, and Yoga Alliance.

03 · How Crystal works

The 6 approaches Crystal lists, in plain English

These are the clinical methods Crystal lists. The descriptions are Maker Therapy's, not Crystal's - a general explanation of what each method is, so the list means something before you have spoken to anybody. They are not a claim about how Crystal runs a session.

Acceptance and Commitment TherapyACT

Rather than trying to argue a painful thought away, ACT works on loosening its grip and getting on with what matters to you anyway. Sessions spend real time naming your values, then building action around them while difficult feelings are still present.

Client-Centred TherapyPerson-centred · Rogerian

The therapist does not steer toward a technique or a diagnosis. They offer sustained, non-judgemental attention and reflect back what they hear, on the premise that people find their own direction when they are genuinely listened to. Often what people mean by “someone who just gets it”.

Cognitive Behavioural TherapyCBT

Structured, present-focused work on the loop between what you think, how you feel and what you then do. Usually means noticing a thought pattern in the room, testing it against evidence, and practising something different between sessions. Among the most heavily researched talking therapies for depression and anxiety.

Mindfulness-Based TherapyMBCT

Trains attention on what is happening right now - body, breath, the thought as it arrives - so distress can be observed rather than automatically acted on. Strongest evidence is in preventing depression from recurring, and it is usually taught as a practice you keep doing outside the session.

Motivational InterviewingMI

A way of talking about change with somebody who is genuinely in two minds about it. The therapist does not argue for the change; they help you say your own reasons out loud, which is the part that predicts whether it happens. Common around substance use and health behaviour.

Solution-Focused Brief TherapySFBT

Starts from where you want to end up rather than from how you got here. Sessions look for the times the problem is already smaller and work out what is different about those, so the number of sessions tends to be short and the work concrete.

04 · What happens next

From this page to a first session

Crystal practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Crystal's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.

1. A questionnaire, not a booking form

   BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Crystal at this point.

2. Naming Crystal specifically

   BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Crystal is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Crystal.

3. If the caseload is full

   You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.

4. The first conversation

   A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.

5. If the fit is wrong

   Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

05 · Before you commit

3 questions worth asking Crystal

Built from what Crystal actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Crystal's - Crystal has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.

• “You list both Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy. Which do you lean on with someone like me?”

  Those two point in different directions - one structured and led by the therapist, the other led by you. The answer tells you what the sessions will actually feel like.

• “How do you decide when someone is ready to work on a traumatic memory itself?”

  Pacing is the biggest safety question in trauma work. A clear, unhurried answer here matters more than any credential.

• “How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”

  On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.

07 · Provenance

Where every line on this page came from

Crystal's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 9 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.

The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.

Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Crystal. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
