Cynthia Yzaguirre, LMHC

Cynthia Yzaguirre is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. She brings 22 years of clinical experience to relationship and individual concerns. Cynthia focuses on practical steps people can take right away to feel less stuck and more able to cope with life’s demands.

She uses a client-centered stance that keeps each person’s goals front and center. That approach is combined with cognitive behavioral techniques to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical behavior strategies and elements of the Gottman Method are used when emotional regulation or relationship patterns are part of the concern.

Cynthia has worked with people facing grief, parenting stress, anger, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma and intimacy issues. She also addresses eating and sleeping difficulties, career transitions, ADHD, and the strains of blended families and immigration-related stressors. Her style is straightforward and goal-oriented, with attention to what will make daily life easier.

In sessions she helps people set realistic goals, practice new skills, and track progress. Expect conversations that are honest and supportive, with some sessions focused on skill-building and others on deeper reflection. She emphasizes self-awareness and practical strategies clients can try between meetings.

Her practice values collaboration. Cynthia works with each person to find the approach that best fits their needs and preferences. She invites people to bring their concerns and to work toward clearer, more manageable next steps.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person's goals and preferences, so sessions focus on what matters most to the client and move at their pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships, using exercises that can be practiced between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Cynthia will work with each person to identify goals and try methods that fit their needs and lifestyle. She encourages feedback and adjustments so the plan stays useful and realistic over time.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for consistent check-ins during transitions like work changes or caregiving. It also supports focused skills practice between sessions and makes it simpler to follow up on progress without rearranging a full day.
