My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. I view counseling as a collaborative relationship in which the client and I work together to explore the current problematic issues and develop goals to address these issues. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, behavioral issues and communication and relationships. I work with children, adults, teens, couples, and families of all backgrounds.

Hi, my name is Cindy. My style of therapy is eclectic with experience in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectic Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Humanistic Therapy, Psychotherapy, Person-Centered Therapy and Trust Based Relational Invention. All modalities have been studied, trial statistics are shown and proven to be very successful. Some models do not work for all people and parts of other models are helpful many times, particularly when co-occurring issues exist. You decide what you want to work on, it is then put in a treatment plan and we go from there using the best model so that you can achieve success on your goals. Clients I have worked with have presented with depression, anxiety, family issues, criminal justice problems, low self esteem, trauma, PTSD, attachment disorders, mood disorders, parenting issues, foster care parents and children, juvenile sexual assault victims, sexual assault perpetrators, adoptive parents and children, conduct disorder, Autism, Asperger’s, Bi-polar disorder, BPD and schizophrenia. Thank you for viewing and I will look for the opportunity to work with you.

7 years of experience as a mental health therapist
Hello there, I’m Jenesis! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Louisiana and Texas. I received a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2015 from Louisiana Tech University. I have over five years of clinical experience working with a diverse background of children, adolescents and adults who desire to cope with issues relating to anxiety, depression, bipolar, selective mutism, ADHD, conduct disorder, impulse control, DMDD, addiction, life transitions and family conflict. I also specialize in Person-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy with a trauma-focused approach. One thing in life that is constant is change. Some changes in life are more difficult to navigate than others. When we are stressed, anxious or depressed, it is a sign that our lives are out of balance. My focus is on providing a trusting, safe, supportive, nonjudgmental and empathetic space for adults, couples, and families to share their experiences and to help navigate through some more difficult life changes. I enjoy working with clients who are motivated to make changes to improve their lives, find purpose, and meaningful fulfillment. Deciding to engage in therapy can be overwhelming. Finding a therapist whose personality and style is a good fit is important. I believe in developing skills for effective coping mechanisms for overall holistic wellness. I look forward to helping clients facilitate positive change and working collaboratively with them to achieve goals they never thought were possible.

3 years of experience as a mental health therapist
I am licensed in Hawaii with 3 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, eating disorders, self esteem & self worth, and confidence. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I believe that most of the things we reach out for help with are normal reactions to hectic life experiences/the world in general. Taking the first step to seeking help takes courage, and it can feel anywhere from uncomfortable, scary, or even cringy for some. That's why I am here to support you in this process and make it feel more natural and normal. The type of therapy that I conduct is a cross between traditional talk therapy (psychoanalysis) and CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy). Depending on your needs, I also conduct cognitive trauma therapy (CTT). In general, I conduct what's called trauma informed therapy, also with a lens that encompasses attachment theory. It is ok if you have never heard of or do not know what any of this entails, as I will guide you as needed. I enjoy collaborating with my clients, as I recognize that first and foremost, this therapy is for your benefit and thus requires input from you. In addition to individual therapy, I have extensive work in the ER, psychiatric ER, and some inpatient psychiatric experience. Therefore, I have done a great deal of work with people who are in immediate crisis and with people who have a broad range of mental health conditions. This includes extensive work with individuals who are diagnosed with what's called serious mental illness. I have worked with victims of assault, domestic violence, trafficking, childhood and systemic trauma, as well as trauma/experiences with near fatal accidents. Prior to my career as a social worker, I worked as a Hospital Chaplain in the trauma wards and the cancer wards (adult and pediatric). In this setting my primary role was working with patients and their family's during the death and dying process as well as working on and exploring what brings them meaning, a sense of purpose, and hope. I received my Masters in Clinical Social Work from Boston University. I completed my clinical training at a Queens Medical Center in Honolulu, a level1 trauma hospital, in the ER, psychiatric ER, and inpatient psychiatric unit. I received my Masters in Divinity from Duke University and did my chaplain training at UNC Hospital and a residency at Duke University Hospital.

Fairchilds therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs.

Before seeing your Fairchilds therapist, prep for your session by reading to understand the therapy process. You might write a list of questions you want to ask your psychotherapist, any emotional pain you may feel, and the ways in which you hope to improve. When you attend your session, let them know if you have any concerns about therapy or feel unsure about what to talk about. They may help guide you with open-ended therapeutic questions while offering mental health services. The first session will often serve as an intake to get to know you as a person and learn why you're attending therapy in Fairchilds.
Should I find a therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine?
Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what therapy entails. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or condition to attend therapy. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback and advice from a therapist. A Fairchilds licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.
Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find through therapy with a Fairchilds counselor can be dependent on your process.

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?
Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. A psychologist can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?
The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
