About Zachariah

Zachariah Crooks is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who focuses on men's wellbeing and related life concerns. He works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, self-esteem, and issues around intimacy. He aims to help people find practical ways to feel steadier and more connected to themselves.

Zachariah takes a personable and exploratory approach. He listens for patterns that keep people stuck and helps them try new ways of responding. Sessions tend to be conversational and paced to what each person needs. He draws on several therapeutic styles to match the person's goals.

Over 15 years in the field, Zachariah has worked with a wide range of concerns from grief and parenting strain to career stress and ADHD challenges. His practice also includes focuses such as abandonment, codependency, commitment issues, and men's issues. This background gives him multiple ways to approach problems that can feel repetitive or entrenched.

He uses methods that bring attention to present experience and deeper personal meaning. Some sessions include mindfulness work to calm the nervous system, or hypnotherapy to access images and memories that affect mood and behavior. Jungian ideas may be used to notice recurring life themes and symbols.

Zachariah aims to help people build new habits, repair relationships with themselves, and feel more purposeful. People who want to address addictions, compulsion, or longstanding patterns may find his blended approach useful. To begin, follow the site prompts to match and schedule a first session.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's experience in the moment. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps people find their own solutions. This approach is useful for anxiety, stress, and relationship worries. Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice, and responsibility. It helps when life changes or questions about purpose feel overwhelming and lonely. Hypnotherapy works with focused attention and suggestion to access memories or habits that affect behavior. It can be helpful for habits, sleep problems, anxiety, and some patterns related to addiction.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk about goals and try methods that fit the person's needs and preferences. Together they check what works and adjust the plan as therapy progresses.

Confirm the available session options before booking since the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow quieter check-ins during a break. It also allows therapists to use guided mindfulness exercises, spoken hypnotherapy, and reflective conversation in ways that fit regular schedules and daily routines.
