As a licensed therapist in South Carolina, I specialize in supporting individuals through life's complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, grief, and relationship dynamics. I'm particularly passionate about working with older adults, women, and young professionals experiencing transitions, isolation, or seeking deeper self-understanding.
My therapeutic approach is compassionate and collaborative, focusing on communication, self-love, and personal growth. I draw from evidence-based practices to help clients explore workplace challenges, family dynamics, sexuality, and life purpose. Whether you're processing a significant life transition like divorce, managing workplace stress, or addressing family-of-origin experiences, I'm committed to creating a supportive, affirming therapeutic environment.
I believe each person's journey is unique, and my role is to walk alongside you with empathy, respect, and professional guidance as you discover your inner strengths and navigate personal healing.

Cynthia listens to me without judgement and knows how to give me ideas of ways to go when I’ve hit a speed bump or fork in the road. She’s very understanding and wise. I appreciate all my time with my therapist and am grateful for the growth I’ve experienced with her!

Cindy is extremely easy to talk to and open up to; she made me feel comfortable right off the bat. She not only helps me figure out how to better myself and my daughters, she helps me feel like it's okay to be me (faults and all).

I feel comfortable confiding in my therapist. She gives me a safe space to be myself and discuss things that I would typically consider embarrassing or shameful. She gives me the perfect amount of empathy but still probes and ask open ended question that allows me to process and come up with my own conclusions
