About Crystal
Crystal Dungan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with ten years of clinical experience. She began her career in a psychiatric hospital and has worked with a wide range of people, including military members and veterans. Crystal aims to make therapy feel calm and approachable from the first session.
She uses practical, short-term strategies when appropriate and adapts to each person's pace. Sessions are conversational and relaxed, while still maintaining professional boundaries.
Background and approach
Crystal focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and relationship or intimacy concerns. Her work also covers parenting challenges, blended family issues, caregiver stress, and problems that come from family of origin dynamics. She supports people facing grief, addiction, bipolar mood concerns, and career or life-purpose questions.
Attachment issues, codependency, infidelity, jealousy, and forgiveness are also areas she addresses. Crystal draws on several therapy styles to match a client's needs. She uses client-centered methods to follow what someone most needs to talk about, cognitive behavioral tools to change unhelpful thinking patterns, and the Gottman Method when relationship skills are the focus.
Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are added when they help a person stay grounded or find motivation for change. Her tone in sessions is flexible and conversational. Crystal aims to remove some of the anxiety that comes with beginning therapy and to work with clients toward clear, manageable goals.

Online support
How Crystal’s approaches work online
Crystal commonly uses the Gottman Method to focus on relationship skills and communication. In online sessions this means practicing clear conversations, learning repair techniques, and building shared goals for a partnership.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers on listening and following what the client needs to talk about. This approach helps people feel heard and shapes goals from their priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to spot and change unhelpful thought patterns, which can reduce worry and improve day-to-day mood and behavior.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Crystal will discuss options and try methods that match a person’s needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting over time in collaboration with the client.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which gives flexibility in how people connect. Video helps with face-to-face conversation and relationship work, phone can be useful when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins or shorter appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
