About Cinthya
Cinthya Marrero is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who focuses on Narrative and client-centered approaches to therapy. She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and struggles with attention. Cinthya speaks English and Spanish and practices from Texas as an LCSW.
Cinthya helps people name the stories they tell about themselves and then notice which parts of those stories feel true and which parts can be changed.
Background and approach
She blends Narrative ideas with client-centered listening so people feel heard before any plan is made. Sessions are simple and direct, focused on small steps clients can try between meetings. She also uses practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to manage overwhelming emotions and impulsivity.
That looks like learning a few skills, practicing them in real life, and checking what works. For issues like social anxiety, guilt, or isolation, she pairs these skills with attention to how a person’s life story shapes their choices. Cinthya’s style is warm and straightforward.
She supports people working on self-esteem, self-love, and motivation by setting clear, doable goals. Parents reading this will find language that’s plain and easy to follow. With four years of experience as an LCSW, she focuses on steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Getting started involves a short matching step and scheduling, and she will meet people where they are in English or Spanish.

Online session options
How narrative and skills-based therapy work online
Online sessions can include Narrative Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to help people make sense of their life stories and feel genuinely heard. Narrative Therapy focuses on identifying the stories clients carry and exploring alternative narratives that support change. Client-centered work centers the client's experience, with the therapist reflecting and asking questions that help people discover their own solutions.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to break unhelpful thought-action patterns. CBT offers concrete exercises to test thoughts, try new behaviors, and track what helps with anxiety, depression, or motivation. Together, these approaches let clients pair story work with practical skills in a collaborative way.
Finding the right mix is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals, try approaches that seem to fit, and adjust over time based on what feels useful. Clients are invited to weigh in about what works and what doesn’t so the plan stays practical and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video is helpful for richer interaction and reading nonverbal cues, while phone calls are useful when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between sessions or use shorter, more frequent exchanges when that fits a busy schedule.
