Hi, thanks for stopping by my page. I’m an LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) and have had the privilege of working with clients for the past five years. Helping people is so rewarding that I can’t imagine doing anything else. I work with children, teens, young adults, and individual adults, aiming to provide a safe, supportive environment while collaborating with my clients in their treatment. I believe in a client-centered therapy process, where we create treatment plans and goals together to meet each person’s unique needs. I offer biblical counseling for those who want a Christian perspective and bible-based counseling.

Get to know me

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

In our first meeting, we’ll take some time to get to know each other. I’ll ask questions and encourage my clients to do the same. If it feels like a good fit and we’re both comfortable, we’ll dive right in and start creating a plan for the next steps toward a happier life.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I’ve been told my strengths include being a good listener, offering support, and helping to create solutions that best benefit the client. You can check out my website at www.buildinghopefaiththerapy.com or search online to read my client reviews. "She listens with such compassion, carries such a genuine kindness, and really understands what my family is walking through". Nichole R.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work with individuals ages five and up and take a personalized approach to therapy, recognizing that each person's journey is unique. Together, we focus on building practical coping skills, life skills, and insight to help you navigate life with greater confidence and balance. For clients who desire it, I also offer faith based (biblical) counseling. Whether you are looking to reach specific goals or need tools to navigate the complexities of life, I am her to listen and support you. I believe in the power of connection and understand during difficult times, and I aim to provide a safe, positive environment where you can heal, thrive and grow.

My treatment methods

Christian Counseling

Per my clients request I have used biblical counseling to help them with a closer walk with God. To help them to understand the bible and to be able to apply it to their everyday lives.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Cognitive Behavioral therapy is used to help those struggling with depression, anxiety, eating disorders, anger, panic attacks and addictions. We work as a team to create coping skills and attainable goals that make a positive treatment plan. My goal is to create a client centered therapeutic process to support your success.

Sandplay

I have found using sand play therapy for children is very beneficial to their learning about their emotions and how to recognize them.

Professionally, Cindy was able to keep up with my train of thoughts, knew exactly what I was talking about regarding my Christian faith which is very important to me! Was able to identify my concerns immediately, while simultaneously engaging in solution focused therapy. Personally, Cindy was warm, she laughed a lot (with me) , I definitely felt heard, seen, & encouraged🤍✨.

Warm approach, open ears, suggests practical approaches and solutions to help with my situation, Biblical references and counseling as well. Willing to meet as often as necessary and genuine in her desire to help me through this.
