Rhys Cramer's practice is grounded in creating a place where people feel safe to show up and be authentic, exploring and embracing the qualities that make them uniquely themselves. Rather than trying to fit people into specific molds, she believes in meeting them where they are. Rhys strives to honor each person's individuality and empower them with the confidence to live life in a way that feels true to the self and fulfilling.

Rhys holds a Master of Arts degree in Counseling and Career Development with a specialization in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Colorado State University, and earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology and Human Development from Eckerd College. She holds a certification in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and considers play therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) her core specialties, drawing also on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Person-Centered Therapy, art therapy, sand tray therapy, mindfulness, and crisis counseling.
Rhys has worked with a wide range of individuals across ages 5 to 65, and she is building her practice across relationships, marriage and family work, kids and teens, and eating disorder recovery. She is also incorporating "geek therapy" into her practice, using pop culture and tabletop role-playing games such as Dungeons and Dragons to explore thoughts, feelings, communication, and problem-solving through creative, fun, and interactive activities. She believes the best changes happen when you feel safe and comfortable enough to show your true, authentic self and to acknowledge the qualities that make you unique.
Outside the counseling office, Rhys is a self-described nerd, a middle child with two brothers, and the proud owner of two cats. She spends her time reading, writing, and playing video games, and she brings that same curiosity and playfulness into the counseling room. Her approach to the work is simple: she is willing to try almost anything, and she never stops learning.
