More about Cynthia

  • 19 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am a licensed clinical social worker in New York with over 20 years of experience working as a clinical social worker, therapist, and school counselor. I have helped clients with a variety of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parent/child conflict, career challenges, and adoption issues. I have also worked with clients experiencing difficulties with emotional trauma and PSTD.

My counseling style is supportive and engaging. I believe it is important to listen intently to the client to determine the best approach to help identify concerns and achieve goals based on the client's needs. My method of practice and therapeutic approaches are based on cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, supportive, client-centered and psychodynamic counseling.

I am available to work with you to live your best life. This is a journal that you do not need to take alone. I am here to support and empower you.

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.
