About Zachariah
Zachariah Crooks is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, sleep problems, relationship strain, and substance-related concerns. He works with those facing grief, self-esteem struggles, identity questions, and life transitions. He also supports people dealing with ADHD, anger, career uncertainty, and issues around intimacy and isolation.
Zachariah uses a blend of talking therapies and experiential work. Sessions focus on identifying patterns that keep problems going and practicing new ways of responding. He often brings mindfulness and reflective techniques into sessions to help clients notice thoughts and habits without getting overwhelmed.
His background spans 15 years in the mental health field and he holds an LMHC credential in Indiana. He pairs depth-oriented approaches with practical tools so clients leave with specific skills to try between sessions. That means pacing the work to match each person’s readiness and goals.
Zachariah aims for a warm, nonjudgmental space where people can speak openly about painful memories, addiction, or relationship pain. He listens for recurring themes like abandonment or shame and helps clients make different choices in their daily lives.
Many people come for short-term coping strategies and stay for longer work on core issues such as family of origin patterns, codependency, or life purpose. Sessions emphasize clear steps, breathing and mindfulness practices, and reflective dialogue to support steady change.
How his approaches translate to online therapy
Zachariah often draws on client-centered therapy and mindfulness therapy in his work. Client-centered therapy focuses on attentive listening and reflecting what a person says so they can make sense of their own experience; it helps with issues like self-esteem, relationship confusion, and life choices. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple practices to notice thoughts and body sensations, which can reduce rumination, improve sleep habits, and lower anxiety.Finding the right approach is part of the process. He will collaborate with each person to choose what fits best based on their goals and preferences. That may mean trying an interpersonal conversation for a few sessions, then adding mindfulness exercises or brief hypnotherapy-style relaxation work as needed.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week and avoid travel time. It also allows for practices like guided breathing or mindfulness to be done in the moment and followed up on during the next meeting, helping people build new habits between sessions.
