Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida. I am licensed in several states including Florida, Kansas, Colorado, Missouri, Arkansas and Tennessee. I received my Masters from the University of Kansas and have been practicing for 20 years. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, motivation, self esteem and confidence, & depression. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. I am here to be a support and guide to help you feel better and move forward in your journey.
In our first session together, we'll start with introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help us create a tailored plan and goals for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
In the past I have worked with clients as young as children to the older population. Currently I focus on clients ages 18+. I start where the client is at and am a great listener without judgement. I provide a safe space to share and process struggles while celebrating the successes.
I love working with clients who are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is a goal structured approach that helps people become aware of negative or inaccurate thinking patterns so they can respond to challenging situations more effectively.
Strength-Based
Strength-based therapy focuses client's strengths and resources to help them develop coping techniques and move toward more positive emotional mindframes. It can help people understand their strengths and weaknesses, and retell their personal history of trauma, stressors, and pain in a way that emphasizes their strengths and resilience as a survivor rather than as a victim.
Grief Therapy
Working thru grief and loss is not a linear path and is different for everyone. Understanding and processing thru the five stages of grief – denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance is how I use grief therapy in my practice.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindfulness-based therapy is a form of cognitive therapy that incorporates mindfulness practices that include present moment awareness, meditation, and breathing exercises. It helps form a calm mind and learn to be more intentional in everyday life.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
Solution Focused Therapy is short-term goal-focused evidence-based therapeutic approach, which incorporates positive psychology principles and practices, and which helps clients change by constructing solutions rather than focusing on problems.

I really enjoyed my session she is down to earth and easy to talk to. I felt very comfortable opening up and she was very understanding.

I can't remember exactly what brought me to Cynthia. I was a mixture of years of experience and what types of things she had knowledge about. The main reason I picked her was experience in dealing with trauma. She was a good listener,no judgement. Gave me a couple of ideas that I'm going to look into that may possibly help me with everything.

Cynthia was the best therapist I have ever had. She was so easy to talk with. She gave me good suggestions to work through my issues. She was warm and caring. I always looked forward to my appointment times with her.
