Cynthia Haynes
Hi there, my name is Cynthia Haynes, and I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I work in private practice, providing one-on-one individual therapy, as well as couples counseling. Couples' counseling services are exclusively offered to clients who utilize cash-based payment options.. I have over 10 years of experience in private practice.
I also like to integrate some "light" psychoanalyses to gain a deeper understanding of why certain struggles in your present life may feel particularly challenging or complicated to resolve.
I love my career, I love helping people and am passionate about helping people grow and experience meaningful, positive results in their lives.
First session
The first session is more like an 'Eval' where I get to know you and understand the reasons you’re seeking therapy. I often explore childhood and adolescent experiences to uncover any past challenges or traumas that may still be affecting you. Therapy is a safe space to express and work through these internal struggles. It might sound a bit intimidating at first, but don’t worry—our sessions are completely safe, and everything will move at your pace.
Strengths
I like to use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which is widely recognized as one of the most effective therapeutic approaches. With CBT, we work on understanding and reshaping your thoughts and applying these insights to your everyday behaviors. The goal is to help you reframe and retrain your thinking so you can engage in healthier behaviors and develop a more balanced mindset. I also like to integrate some "light" psychoanalyses to gain a deeper understanding of why certain struggles in your present life may feel particularly challenging or complicated to resolve. Ultimately, this approach helps you work through past issues, develop effective coping strategies, and build lasting confidence and inner happiness.

I am dedicated to assisting individuals in addressing their challenges and achieving a higher quality of life. I facilitate client understanding of their difficulties and provide guidance on necessary considerations and processes for personal growth. Furthermore, I am passionate about working with couples, specializing in conflict resolution and relationship enhancement. (Couples counseling is exclusively for cash-based clients). I am committed to utilizing solution-focused therapy to promote growth and positive change.
