About Crystal

Crystal Forget brings a compassion-driven, evidence-based approach to therapy, blending Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with complementary methods to help clients identify patterns and build practical coping skills.

Background and approach

As an LCSW and CSW practicing in Colorado, she emphasizes collaborative work that centers the client's values and day-to-day goals while using structured techniques to address symptoms and behavior changes.

With three years of clinical experience, Crystal focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and depression, alongside a range of related issues such as attachment, body image, communication problems, control issues, and grief around divorce and separation.

Her practice integrates strategies from ACT, DBT, EFT, and client-centered care to address emotional regulation, interpersonal repair, and meaning-making. She aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore difficult feelings and make tangible changes.

Crystal supports efforts to reduce isolation, improve self-compassion, and repair connection, meeting people where they are and helping them move toward clearer values and healthier patterns.

Online therapy approaches and practical access



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through structured exercises and skill building; it is often used to target anxiety, mood concerns, and patterns that maintain distress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages noticing thoughts and emotions without getting stuck in them while clarifying personal values and committing to value-driven actions, which can help with stress, avoidance, and finding meaning in difficult circumstances. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship that supports self-exploration and empowerment, creating space for clients to set the pace and focus of their work.

Determining the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Crystal works collaboratively with clients to choose methods that align with their needs, goals, and preferences. She combines practical techniques with empathic listening so that treatment reflects both symptom relief and personal growth.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for different lifestyles and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow options for real-time conversations or ongoing messaging, and support continuity of care when in-person visits are not feasible. Licensed professionals can adapt these modalities to apply CBT, ACT, and client-centered practices effectively in remote sessions.
