About Cynthia
Cynthia is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, practicing in Florida with ten years of clinical experience. She earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Slippery Rock University and a master’s degree in mental health counseling from the University of Miami. Her background includes supporting people through grief, addiction concerns, parenting strain, and workplace stress.
In sessions she uses hands-on approaches that focus on present problems and achievable goals. She draws from cognitive behavioral tools to shift unhelpful thinking, motivational interviewing to support change, and solution-focused strategies to highlight strengths and small wins. The work is practical and goal-directed, with concrete steps clients can try between meetings.
Cynthia helps people address relationship and intimacy-related issues, family problems, fertility and pregnancy concerns, and common mood struggles like anxiety and depression. She also supports those dealing with caregiver stress, compassion fatigue, and life transitions such as divorce or midlife shifts.
Her goal is to offer compassionate support while helping people build skills to manage stress, sleep troubles, anger, and self-esteem challenges. She invites people to start with a short intake so they can set clear goals and begin making steady progress.
How Cynthia’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress by breaking issues into manageable steps.Motivational Interviewing focuses on strengthening a person's own reasons for change. It is useful when someone feels ambivalent about shifting habits like substance use or making major life changes.
Solution-Focused Therapy looks at what is already working and builds on small, achievable goals. This approach can speed up progress by highlighting practical next steps and existing strengths.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Cynthia collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts plans as progress is made so the approach stays helpful.
