(she/her)
Welcome! I am Cindy Walker, a licensed professional and mental health counselor. 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.
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.
I pride myself in being flexible and creative with a warm, nonjudgmental, but challenging approach.
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 work with an eclectic array of treatment modalities, but primarily under the cognitive behavioral umbrella. I primarily work through the lenses of rational emotive behavioral therapy but am also trained in trauma informed CBT.
