Cynthia is a great therapist who takes the time to listen to me. She doesn’t make me feel any less no matter what I tell her.

So far my experience with Mrs. Cynthia Young has been amazing. She is great listener and very helpful with get to the issues at hand. She gave me a great exercise to do outside of session and my goodness I absolutely needed that homework exercise to do outside of our session. I highly would recommend Mrs. Young to anyone.

Cynthia saw me as a person, and has treated me with so much respect, care and guidance. Her positive energy, engaging dialogue and encouragement has slowly given me the support needed to start working on myself. I was very skeptical about who I would have and if they would even try to understand my sentiments, but I have been blessed ten times over to have Cynthia as a therapist!

I just started with my therapist Cynthia and so far it has been going well. She understands me, makes me feel comfortable, and has given me homework which is what I looked for the most. She is kind, genuine, and truly a great help so far. Can’t wait to continue therapy with her !

Cynthia is an angel. So calm and warm. I feel listened to and she asks good questions to help me find a path forward. I’m grateful for her.
