Cindy is very good at peeling back the layers to expose the root cause of the issue, which then lets you work on that, rather than losing time trying to fix the “perceived” issue.

I feel this is a safe and that she really pay attention to what I have to say. Also, she follows up with me and gives me a comfortable atmosphere to talk. Is been a short time but effective.

"One must never consent to creep when one feels an impulse

Welcome! I'm Cindy Milas, Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Board Certified Coach. Based on 29 years of practice with a diverse range of clients, I've come to believe that with skilled therapy provided in a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental atmosphere, clients committed to making positive change can find the resources within themselves to meet most of life's challenges.

Drawing upon cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and laser-focused life coaching techniques, we'll partner together to develop a flexible, individualized therapy plan to not only give you tools to meet your current challenges, but to develop greater fulfillment, resilience, and balance in every area of living!

Areas I specialize in include: women's empowerment, life coaching, depression, anxiety, life transitions, aging, relationships, stress management, codependency, personal boundaries, self-esteem, chronic and life-threatening illness, grief/loss, work/life balance, and burnout.

My BetterHelp summer hours are Tuesday and Thursday, 1:00pm-6:00pm. Limited evening and weekend hours may also be available by appointment only.

I'm so glad you've reached out to take your first step toward positive change! I look forward to partnering with you on your journey!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
