Getting to know Crystal Gil
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Bakersfield, California, working with clients statewide via telehealth. I hold a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University. I work with adults and specialize in anxiety, depression, and stress, utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy to help my clients make progress and start feeling better.
My approach to therapy varies based on the needs of each client. I tend to lean towards Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, or Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, as these modalities help me and the client build a shared understanding of their reality and allow us to work together to create change.
My style and approach tend to be a good fit for young adults who may be dealing with the challenges of life transitions and societal pressures. I aim to support my clients in navigating these issues and to build skills to develop a more positive life.
My communication style is calm, direct, and adaptable. I want my clients to feel comfortable and supported when talking to me about anything they want to share at their own pace.

I liked crystal but was frequently cancelled on then ultimately dropped as a client with no closure which hurt based on my history with abandonment. She was very kind and always listened and wish her the best.
