Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Cynthia draws on client-centered therapy to place each person’s experience at the heart of the work, offering a respectful, empathetic stance that helps people explore feelings, values, and personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify and adjust unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be useful for worries such as anxiety, depression, and stress. She also uses solution-focused techniques to set clear, achievable goals and to build on strengths and practical steps for change.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Cynthia works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best. She tailors methods according to a client’s needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the mix of approaches as progress unfolds and priorities shift.

Online therapy with Cynthia offers flexibility in how sessions are delivered - by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - which can make it easier to access support from different locations and to fit sessions into busy schedules. These options help people maintain continuity of care while balancing other commitments.
