About me

If you’re facing a major life change—like divorce, loss, career transition, or the challenges of single parenting—you don’t have to do it alone. As a trauma-informed therapist trained in EMDR, I help people process painful experiences that keep them feeling stuck. Together, we create a safe, supportive space to heal, gain clarity, and rebuild confidence. My approach is warm, direct, and compassionate. Whether you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or uncertain about what’s next, we’ll work together to move toward balance, growth, and a life that feels more like your own.

Get to know me

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

In our first session, we’ll focus on getting to know you—what you’re experiencing, what’s brought you to therapy, and what you hope to gain from our work together. This time is all about understanding your story, your goals, and the areas you’d like to focus on. I’ll ask some background questions about past treatment, current challenges, and what support feels most helpful to you right now. Together, we’ll begin shaping a plan for therapy that fits your needs and pace. The first session is also a chance for both of us to see if we’re a good fit. I believe the right connection is essential for healing, and if I feel another therapist’s expertise would serve you better, I’ll always share that honestly. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, supported, and hopeful about the path ahead.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

As a trauma-informed therapist trained in EMDR, I help clients heal from painful experiences and move toward balance and peace. I provide a supportive, judgment-free space where you’ll feel understood and encouraged to grow. My approach is compassionate, direct, and focused on helping you create real, lasting change. If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d be honored to work with you.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work with women and men who are navigating life changes, loss, or moments that have left them feeling stuck or overwhelmed. You may be searching for peace, meaning, or a sense of control again—and you don’t have to do it alone. Together, we’ll work to calm the noise, process what’s happened, and help you move forward with clarity and confidence. Healing takes courage, and I’ll be here to guide you—one step at a time.

Cindy exhibits a wealth of knowledge pulling from various skills, strategies, and techniques, which allows for a holistic approach that can be adapted to the needs of each person. She has helped me immensely in the short time we have been working together and the skills she has taught me have been essential to my improved mood and energy. She is a solution-oriented therapist with the flexibility and empathy to meet you where you are while still managing to promote personal growth.
