About Cynthia
She draws on tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach practical skills for mood and behavior change. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is also part of her work for people processing traumatic memories. The Gottman Method informs her thinking about relationship patterns and communication.
Cynthia has worked in inpatient psychiatric settings and in mobile crisis outreach, experience that shaped her focus on safety and clear planning. She has eight years in private practice and background supporting people with mood disorders, trauma, and addiction-related struggles.
In sessions she aims to identify concrete steps people can try between meetings. That might include short behavioral experiments, skill-building exercises, or structured ways to address painful memories. She treats concerns such as grief, parenting stress, impulsivity, and feelings of isolation.
She practices in Texas and conducts therapy in English. People who are considering online work should confirm current session options before booking. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule based on the therapist's availability.

How Cynthia Uses Therapeutic Methods Online
CBT teaches people to notice unhelpful thoughts and test them with real-life actions. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and mood concerns by breaking problems into small, manageable steps.DBT offers skills for managing strong emotions, handling impulsive urges, and improving how people relate to others. It can be helpful for intense mood swings, overwhelm, and problems with impulsivity.
EMDR is a method used to work with distressing memories by following a structured process that can reduce the intensity of painful recollections. It is often chosen when trauma memories continue to cause symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help clients decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level, and may combine elements from different approaches as needed. This is a collaborative process that evolves with progress and feedback.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified in the profile.
