About Zachariah
Zachariah Crooks is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Indiana with 15 years of clinical experience. He works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, and codependency among other concerns. Zachariah uses talk-based work alongside mind-body methods to help people notice patterns that keep showing up in their lives.
He draws on client-centered and existential ideas to help people name what matters to them. That often starts with straightforward conversations about how someone copes, what they avoid, and where they feel stuck. He also uses hypnotherapy and Jungian-influenced work when exploring memories, recurring images, or deep emotional themes.
Sessions typically focus on building clearer personal boundaries, managing impulses, addressing substance issues, and improving self-esteem. For people wrestling with abandonment, control issues, emptiness, or family of origin problems, he helps map out repeating dynamics and small changes to test in daily life. He also works with concerns around intimacy, grief, ADHD, and men’s issues.
Zachariah mixes reflective listening with practical suggestions. He offers mindfulness practices and breathing techniques to manage intense moments. Where appropriate he brings guided hypnotherapy to address stuck emotional patterns and symbolic material identified in Jungian work.
People looking for help with people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or living around someone else’s crises can expect direct, plain talk about behaviors and options. To begin, prospective clients are asked to follow the service’s intake steps and schedule an initial session.
How sessions work
How his approaches are used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people clarify choices, recognize patterns, and decide what they want to try differently. Existential Therapy looks at meaning, responsibility, and how a person makes decisions in their life; it can be useful when someone feels stuck or empty. Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to work with memories, troubling habits, or emotional blocks and may be used where imagery and deeper suggestion are helpful.Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most comfortable, and then adapt the approach as therapy progresses. Clients are invited to give feedback and change direction as needed so the work matches their practical aims.
The original biography did not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also make it simpler to practice skills between sessions and to bring real-life problems into conversation quickly. Licensed professionals can adapt the methods above to an online setting while helping clients test small changes in daily life.
