LMFT, 20 years of experience
Frequently rebooked
I have been practicing as a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist (LMFT) for over 20 years, working with clients of all ages from diverse places and backgrounds, who are experiencing personal emotional struggles or navigating complex relationships. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental environment in which to set goals, identify and process emotions, increase healthy communication skills, deepen insight, expand your sense of self, and affect positive change in your life.
Within a welcoming and non-judgmental environment where you can openly discuss your concerns, I will gather bckground information that will help me understand your goals and identify critical issues to be addressed. I will explain the therapeutic process, set expectations, and we will collaboratively develop a plan tailored to your needs that will then be utilized in our on-going work together.
As a compassionate, skilled professional, I am committed to forming collaborative partnerships with my clients to monitor the alliance I have with them and the outcome of the services I am providing. I seek to join in their personal journey of growth and change for a satisfying, purposful and meaningful life .
My clients value emotional wellness and personal growth and are ready to foster healthier connections in their life. Whether you are experiencing personal emotional struggles or navigating complex relationship dynamics, I will provide tailored, evidence-based strategies to address your unique need and empower you to overcome obstacles, build resiliency, and improve your functioning and quality of life.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is an evidenced-based therapeutic approach for which there is extensive scientific evidence that the methods that have been developed actually produce change. I apply various Cognitive Behavioral therapeutic models and techniques, including Solution-Focused, Strategic, Structual and Multi-generational Family therapies. We will work together, in a collaborative fashion, to develop an understanding of the problem and a treatment strategy in order to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, and adjust problematic emotions. Proven to be effective for a range of problems - including depression, anxiety, relationship problems, anger management, utilizing CBT in my practice has led many clients to significant improvement in their functioning and quality of life.

My first therapy session with Cynthia was wonderful and provided me with so much hope for the future. I wish I could have had 4 hours instead of 1, but I am motivated to attend my next session and begin the real work. I am looking forward to additional sessions with her.

Cynthia is great. So personable and really knows how to regulate me while sharing her knowledge with me. With her guidance I have a much better understanding of my anxiety and that I will make it through whatever life throws at me. Thanks Cynthia
