About Cynthia
She blends insight-oriented psychotherapy with brief solution-focused counseling and life coaching. Sessions start with an intake to map strengths, needs, and current challenges. From there she and the client build a treatment plan with clear, achievable goals and steps to get there.
Cynthia has worked in a variety of settings, including in-patient psychiatry, outpatient clinics, schools, and courts. That background gives her experience with diverse situations and a range of problems. She uses this experience to tailor the approach to each person she sees.
Her work draws on approaches such as Attachment-Based Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Client-Centered Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. These methods are used to address mood disorders, grief, relationship strains, and behavioral concerns like impulsivity and compulsions.
Clients can expect a mix of talking, skill-building, and practical exercises focused on changing everyday thoughts and habits. Cynthia aims to help people find realistic ways to cope, reduce distress, and move toward clearer goals.

How Cynthia’s approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early connections affect current relationships and patterns. Online sessions can be used to notice those patterns, talk through attachment concerns, and practice new ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s perspective and emphasizes empathy and acceptance; in remote sessions the therapist listens closely and follows the client’s lead to identify what matters most.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Cynthia will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean blending attachment work with practical skills from DBT or adding mindfulness exercises to daily routines.
Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also helps people practice skills between meetings and bring real-life situations into conversation. Licensed professionals tailor the mix of talking, skill-building, and mindful practice to each person’s goals.
