Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Cynthia draws from several evidence-informed approaches to meet clients where they are and address a range of concerns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then clarifying values and taking purposeful action - it can be helpful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to distress and developing practical strategies to change them, which often supports work on depression, anxiety, and coping skills. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and collaboration, creating a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences and build self-awareness.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Cynthia works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods align best with their needs, goals, and personal preferences, and she adapts treatment as progress unfolds. This collaborative process helps shape a tailored plan that feels practical and meaningful.
Online therapy options including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide flexibility for clients balancing work, family, or geographic constraints. These modalities allow licensed professionals and therapists to offer consistent care, make scheduling more accessible, and support ongoing progress through regular contact and varied communication formats.
