Cindy Reyes , LCSW

Cindy Reyes is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, low self-esteem, and depression. She speaks English and Spanish and brings eleven years of clinical experience to sessions. Cindy focuses on practical steps people can use right away to feel steadier and more able to cope.

She draws from evidence-based therapeutic techniques to tailor care to each person's situation. Sessions focus on clear goals, learning coping skills, and building on existing strengths. Cindy aims for a down-to-earth style that makes hard conversations easier to handle.

Her background includes work in community mental health settings where she supported people through life transitions and trauma. That work shaped her focus on practical tools and survivor-centered care rather than long theoretical explanations.

In session, Cindy uses a mix of strategies such as skill teaching, problem-solving, and mindfulness exercises. She works collaboratively to set goals and checks in often to adjust the plan as needs change. The emphasis is on skills that can be practiced between meetings.

Cindy also brings experience helping people facing caregiver strain, chronic illness or pain, body image concerns, and complicated grief. She pays attention to attachment, abandonment, and communication problems when those issues show up in sessions. This lets her tailor conversations to what matters most to each person.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Many of her methods come from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and practical changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy emphasizes emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills to manage intense feelings and improve coping.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. That information guides a collaborative plan and the selection of techniques that fit each person's life and needs.

Online therapy gives multiple ways to meet without traveling. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, sharing progress, or getting support between sessions. These formats offer flexibility to fit therapy into a busy schedule and make consistent work on goals more practical.
