About me




I’m Here to Help !
My goal is to create a safe space for you to share your pain. I strongly believe working together in a strong supportive, professional relationship is an important key to a great outcome. For 20 plus years, I have had the joy of helping individuals, groups and families to resolve a wide range of problems and reduce emotional distress. With compassion and empathy, I will help to restore your equilibrium in distressing times, so you can become functional again. If you have unresolved issues from childhood, I am exceptionally trained to handle that as well. We can go as deep as you desire—It’s up to you.

Working in partnership, we will identify your strengths, then use them as a springboard to gain a more enjoyable life. We will work to help you gain important insight into issues which have become stumbling blocks, then devise strategies to help reduce the pain, along with acquiring skills to cope more effectively.

Cynthia is a kind hearted therapist with so much knowledge to pass along.
She is respectful. She chooses her words carefully. She challenges you. She focuses on the positive but does discuss ways to deal with the negative. I appreciate her. She has helped me grow a lot & heal.

I have been having sessions with Cynthia for several months now and I am so thankful for the impact that she has had on my life! i came to her in a very desperate emotional season and she has patiently listened, guided me and taught me effective strategies to move forward toward peace and healing. Additionally, my faith is of great importance to me and I have greatly appreciated that she shares that quality and is able to include spiritual aspects in our therapy sessions. She asks thoughtful. questions and helps me to feel optimistic and hopeful. She is so gifted at identifying areas for immediate improvement and relief, and i am so thankful for her!! 5 Stars and confetti showers for
how wonderful Cynthia is!
