About Cyndi Dyke
Cyndi Dyke is a licensed therapist based in Hertfordshire, UK, with 10 years of professional experience supporting adults, children and adolescents. She offers practical psychological care for a range of difficulties, including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem or low confidence, relationship and family issues, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Her work draws on direct counselling experience across diverse presenting concerns and age groups.
Cyndi believes that each person is the expert of their own story and focuses on helping clients uncover strengths and resources already present. She creates a nonjudgmental environment for individuals, families, and couples, and aims to challenge unhelpful beliefs and behaviours while promoting healthier ways of thinking and acting. That strengths-based stance is paired with a commitment to compassionate, respectful, and warm therapeutic relationships.
Her approach is informed by Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, psychodynamic ideas, Solution-Focused Therapy and, when requested, biblical teachings. She also offers Christian counselling that blends faith perspectives with psychological principles, using scripture and biblical teaching as a resource for those who choose that route. Cyndi is registered with the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which denotes professional membership and adherence to standards of practice.
Taking the first step into therapy can require courage, and Cyndi aims to meet clients where they are, calibrating treatment to suit the needs of mind, body, spirit, and community. She is particularly passionate about helping women transform thought patterns through faith-based and psychological approaches, drawing on the idea of renewal found in Romans 12:22 "Be transformed by the renewal of your mind."

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Cyndi works from evidence-informed approaches that are explained in clear, practical terms so clients can understand how therapy may help. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the client leads the pace and content of work - this approach helps people who need empathy, validation, and a safe setting to explore identity, relationships, and self-worth. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours through practical strategies and is often used for anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying goals and small, achievable steps toward change, which can be especially useful when clients want focused, goal-directed support.Choosing the right approach is part of the collaborative process. Cyndi works with clients to understand their needs, goals, and preferences and tailors a plan that may combine techniques from different therapies to best support progress. The aim is to find what fits the individual rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method.
Online therapy offers flexible access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, family, and geographical constraints, and allow ongoing support from licensed professionals and therapists even when in-person meetings are impractical.
