About me

Welcome! I am Cindy Walker, a licensed professional and mental health counselor and serve the states of New Jersey, Iowa, and North Carolina. It brings me great joy to be a helper and walk alongside those wounded and frustrated by life. I created Sempre Autentico LLC in order to assist people in becoming their truest self. I take a client centered approach (as therapy is such a personal choice) and work collaboratively towards what the person is motivated to get accomplished.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

The first session is a wonderful opportunity to build rapport and create attainable and measurable goals. This is a great time for clients to ask questions about how therapy can go as well as how I can best support them.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I pride myself in being flexible and creative with a warm, nonjudgmental, but challenging approach.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I have a few specialties and am passionate about giving great care to those who face limited options. No matter the diagnosis, it is a pleasure collaborating and customizing plans tailored to those willing to put in the work.

I started seeing Cindy when I was going through a life-altering breakup and she fully changed my life. She changed my perspective on everything I shared with her. I made so much progress with Cindy and can't say enough good things about her!!! I'm moving out of state now so we have to say goodbye, but I would see her forever if I could.
