Her approach is practical and person-centered. She prefers short, clear conversations that get to what matters most.

Background and approach

Sessions are aimed at making everyday life easier and helping people find tools that fit their routines. Cindy draws on a mix of methods to match each person’s needs. She uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe their stories and see themselves differently.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and EMDR are other options she may use depending on the concern. With six years of clinical work, Cindy combines education and hands-on experience to guide therapy. She earned a bachelor’s in psychology from the University of Central Florida and a master’s in mental health counseling from Capella University.

These studies inform how she structures sessions and sets goals with clients. Cindy aims to create a calm, respectful space where people feel heard. She emphasizes collaboration - working together to set priorities and try approaches that actually help day-to-day.

Narrative Therapy in this listing

Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.

If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Cindy directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.

Online session options

How narrative and practical therapies work online

Online work can use Narrative Therapy to help people rethink the stories they tell about themselves and their problems. Narrative Therapy focuses on separating the person from the problem and creating new, more useful narratives that reduce shame and open up choices.

Client-Centered Therapy is another approach Cindy uses. It emphasizes listening, validation, and meeting people where they are so they feel understood and can explore what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and replace them with practical strategies for managing mood, anxiety, and behavior.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Cindy will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and how symptoms show up in daily life. Together they choose methods to try and adjust those choices as needed in follow-up sessions.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls work well for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short updates, on-the-go support, or when someone prefers typing to speaking. These options offer flexibility to fit therapy into work, family, and other obligations.
