I'm Crystal Henderson
certified life coach for children
Supporting Children (Ages 6-16) Through Life's Challenges
I partner with parents to create an in person or online space for children (ages 6-16) to feel supported, understood, and cared for. I love helping the whole child: their social and mental health, spirituality, values, school, home life and communities to not just cope but flourish amidst life’s challenges and everyday stressors.
These challenging life circumstances may be and are not limited too: Divorce, blended families, grief support, relationships (peer, parent, sibling), school avoidance behavior, self-image, confidence.

Crystal has an incredible way to connect with kids and families. I have watched her grow her programs and see kids feel safe, and be able to grow past what people thought possible. Her warm, and stategic approach makes this possible.

As a Family Minister I am always looking for new ways to engage and resource parents and families to disciple their children. We recently hosted a Parenting Workshop led by Crystal Henderson at Maple Ridge Alliance Church, and it was a fantastic experience. Crystal's energy and approachability made the session engaging and relatable for all parents. She skillfully connected biblical principles with practical strategies for nurturing our children's hearts and minds. Her insights left parents feeling empowered and inspired to strengthen their family bonds. I highly recommend her workshops.
