About Cindy
Her work emphasizes identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new ways of responding. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shift thoughts and behaviors, and on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people live by their values even when feelings are intense. Attachment-based ideas guide conversations about how early relationships affect current connections.
Cindy brings 14 years of experience in counseling settings, including work with people affected by trauma, addiction, and family conflict. She has provided services to individuals who have faced PTSD and to those managing grief and loss. Her background includes using music, song writing, and creative tools when helpful for processing difficult experiences.
Sessions are described as collaborative and oriented toward real-world change. Cindy helps people set manageable goals, practice new habits, and notice progress between meetings. She frames therapy as a chance to re-create personal stories, reduce rumination, and build more balanced daily life.
She holds a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology and is licensed to practice in Arizona as an LMFT. Sessions are conducted in English and are intended for clients located in Arizona.

Therapy approaches that translate online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and still choose actions that match their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like depression or anxiety. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and helps people change how they relate to others.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they adjust the plan over time, mixing strategies from different approaches as required.
Confirm the available session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, to have shorter check-ins when days are tight, or to avoid travel time. Many people find that working remotely lets them practice new skills between meetings and bring real situations into sessions for immediate problem solving.
