Hello there!

My aim as a therapist is to connect with you as a person, not just a client. In my opinion, therapy can be fun, not just full of tears and processing hard things. I try to make it fun and enjoyable even though there will be times when it's difficult. I use humor to bring you out of your shell and connection to get you where you want to go! I can't wait to meet you.

Crystal Broughton

Crystal Broughton

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Conyers, GA


My name is Crystal Broughton. I am the founder of Milestone Counseling & Wellness, LLC (MCW) and lead therapist with a faith-based approach. As a licensed professional counselor, my mission is to provide the environment that fosters growth and resilience to help those feel empowered and reclaim their lives.

One of my strengths is my ability to listen...to hear YOU; in a non judgmental space. I provide you a space to release, search and identify what you need. Your narrative is the key to your healing and growth on your journey. Our life experiences influence the people we touch in our lives; our relationships, our jobs, our children. I'd love to listen to you.

I am a Master level, fully licensed and Nationally Certified Clinician. I understand the necessity of a safe place to discover healing & growth. We all experience levels of anxiety, depression, existential, and family/social conflict that hinders us from moving forward. The one thing we forget is that we don't have to endure it alone.
