EMDR • Anxiety • Trauma • Burnout

Helping women move beyond trauma, anxiety, burnout, and life's hardest seasons.

Healing begins with feeling safe, understood, and supported. Whether you're navigating overwhelming stress, unresolved trauma, grief, or a major life transition, therapy can provide a place to slow down, process your experiences, and begin moving toward lasting change.

My approach combines compassionate, evidence-based therapy with EMDR to help women find healing that lasts. For clients who desire it, faith can be thoughtfully integrated into the therapeutic process.

Serving Women Throughout Florida

Remote therapy services available throughout the state of Florida.

Welcome

Therapy designed around your season of life.

Every healing journey looks different. Some women benefit from consistent weekly support, while others are looking for an immersive therapy experience that creates meaningful progress in a shorter period of time.

Together we'll determine the approach that best fits your goals, your schedule, and where you are today.

Every woman deserves a place where she feels safe enough to heal.

A place to slow down, breathe, and begin moving forward.

EMDR Therapy

Healing that reaches beyond talking about the past.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based therapy that helps the brain process distressing memories so they no longer carry the same emotional intensity.

Many clients find that EMDR allows them to move forward with greater peace, confidence, and emotional freedom.

  • Evidence-based trauma treatment
  • Integrated into weekly sessions or intensives
  • Personalized for your goals and readiness
  • Focused on lasting healing, not just symptom relief

About Crystal

Healing begins with feeling safe, understood, and supported.

I'm Crystal Hicks. Since 2012, I've walked alongside women through some of the hardest chapters of their lives — and I believe therapy should be a place where you can exhale, where you don't have to carry everything alone.

My passion is helping women navigate trauma, anxiety, burnout, grief, infertility, caregiver stress, and life's major transitions with compassion, curiosity, and evidence-based care.

As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP-II), I specialize in working with complex trauma. I integrate EMDR and other neurobiologically informed approaches to help women move beyond simply managing symptoms and toward deep, lasting healing—at a pace that feels safe for you.

If faith is an important part of your life, it can be thoughtfully incorporated into the therapeutic process. If it isn't, you'll receive the same compassionate, personalized care in a welcoming environment that honors your values.

Whether we're meeting for weekly sessions, extended appointments, or a therapy intensive, my hope is that you'll leave each session feeling lighter, more grounded, and better equipped for whatever lies ahead.
