Hello! You can call me Cai. I’m a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, certified personal trainer, AMGA Climbing Wall Instructor, and somatic coach. I love dogs, I'm a world traveler, rock climber, somatic abolitionist, BIPoC, queer, and neuro-divergent, therapist. For new clients, please know that while I put some regularly occurring appointment times on my calendar, that my schedule varies, and is set-up to support you for about 4-session. If after 4-sessions your goals, our schedules, and fit align, I am happy to discuss ongoing sessions. In my experience, 4-sessions with me works best if you are seeking to dive into experiential and somatic work, are seeking more support while working through a specific situation or recent life change, or have a specific, personal-growth goal. I tend to work from a somatic lens, will teach coping skills when asked or it is appropriate to offer, cuss sometimes, throw in some humor, work intuitively, and through experiential process. I welcome other therapists, climbers, marginalized folx, and anyone drawn to something they’ve read here.

I am Cynia R. Black: daughter, sister, friend, and spirited clinical therapist. My goal is to support individuals , couples and families through life's difficult moments. Over the last 8 years, I have gained most of my experience working in the intensive in-home and outpatient mental health setting as a Family Consultant with youth ages birth to 12 years old, and a Family Therapist with families of youth ages 10 to 17 years old. With this work, I have developed a strong passion for working alongside young adults on a very integral part of their journey- transitioning from adolescence to adulthood. I have observed that oftentimes adolescents have been perceived by society as being "difficult" and "incapable" of change rather than seeing them as people who are trying to adapt to a transition in which they feel like they have no control. As a therapist, I am committed to empowering and supporting my clients by increasing resiliency, and positive well being, and helping to develop sustainable coping strategies. I am looking forward to doing this work and continuing this journey together with you!
