More about Cynthia
- 34 years' experience
- Female
- LMHP
I am a licensed mental health practitioner with over 30 years of experience counseling in various settings such as low-income communities and in a university counseling center. I have taught psychology at various universities and am currently an adjunct professor of psychology. I train post-graduate students in aspects of psychology that they will need to know to pass their board exams in medicine and dentistry. I hold a Ph.D. in Social Psychology through which I've explored conflicts (social, ethnic, political...) in various countries. I was also a Licenced Massage Therapist for over 30 years.
I love to travel, interact with people from various cultural and spiritual perspectives to understand them and hone my understanding of myself in relation to others.
I come from a very eclectic family background via racial, religious, educational, social, judicial, political and sexual orientations. This being said, I am thus eclectic in my approach to counseling. I welcome clients where they are at and strive to explore where they are willing to go mentally, physically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually to feel better and to achieve their dreams. Also, I have to add, I adore the outdoors and have been a proponent of the environment since I was a child. I still love to play in the rain.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

At first I was nervous to start talking to anyone about the inner-workings of ‘me’, but Cynthia eased that fear right away. I was about 5 minutes into my first session when I realized that she is amazing, she can help me; and she is a caring, helpful, experienced, and wonderful human. It feels more like speaking to an old friend, that just so happens to make me think about myself and my life in a different way. She helps me dive into my feelings and thoughts. She cares about me, but also what’s important to me and my overall health. I’ve only just begun with Cynthia, but I’m very excited to see my progress!
Cynthia has been a godsend. I haven’t had an outlet to express everything in my life for a long time and I'm glad I was put with her! She has made me feel incredibly comfortable and safe with my feelings. I would highly recommend her to anyone!
Ms. Cynthia Jenkins is breath of fresh air. She listens, she interprets the information, and quality advice about the situation. Very mother-esque
Cynthia has been amazing. We really clicked. I could talk to her all day! Highly recommend.
Ms. Cynthia Jenkins is an angel. She listens to what I have to say and then assesses what I need to know to become a better person
cynthia has a different way of doing therapy, our first session i had with her, she mainly focus on having me have a creative outlet again. she also is starting to help to figure out triggers i have for anxiety. she is truly a great person and a easy person to talk to.
I've been talking with Cynthia for about a month now. I really connect with her and can hold fluid conversations that always seem to fly by. She takes a different approach than I am used to, and I really appreciate it.
Cynthia is very empathetic and listens. She will call you out and push you to really explore the issues you are having beyond the surface.
Just met for intake to start so getting to know her, but good experience so far. I feel comfortable in sharing and feel that she is knowledgeable and caring. Look forward to continue to work with you!
I have been working with Cynthia for a couple weeks now. She has been great to talk with. She listens and gives me feedback that I may or may not want to hear.
Cynthia has been a pleasure to talk to. She understands that my schedule is a mess, and honestly life is hectic. She truly cares and follows up. I look forward to more talks and some video sessions soon!
I have only been talking with Cynthia for a few weeks now, but so far she’s been amazing and I look forward to all the progress that I am working on making.
She does a great job listening to my concerns and provided many perspectives for me to consider. Very willing to help and provide resources
I love Cynthia! She really listens to me and helps me become a better version of myself!
