About Cynthia

Cynthia Wells is a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on helping women navigate stress, anxiety, grief, depression, bipolar disorder, and trauma. She speaks plainly and aims to make first steps toward change less overwhelming. Cynthia treats each person as an individual and works with respect and compassion.

She uses conversations and practical exercises to build coping skills. Sessions are tailored to what a person needs right now, whether that means managing panic, stabilizing mood, or processing loss. Cynthia also supports people facing challenges like addiction, anger, low self-esteem, caregiving strain, and career transitions.

Her approach draws on several therapy methods to match different concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers tools for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the person’s goals and values at the center of sessions.

With five years of professional experience and a Florida LMHC credential, Cynthia blends practical skills with a warm style. She collaborates with each person to set clear, manageable goals and track progress. Her aim is to help people get through hard moments and build routines that feel sustainable.

For people juggling busy lives or major changes, Cynthia focuses on actionable steps. She supports parenting stress, relationship problems, and identity or self-worth concerns in ways that fit everyday life. The tone in sessions is direct, kind, and goal-focused.

Therapy methods and online care that fit your life

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small steps toward those values while accepting difficult feelings. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing alternatives to reduce symptoms like depression and worry. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental conversation where the person sets the pace and goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Cynthia will discuss what feels most helpful and adjust methods based on personal goals and day-to-day needs. That collaborative process helps shape session plans that match both short-term problems and longer-term priorities.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people talk face-to-face when screen time is OK. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, ongoing coaching, or when a shorter format fits a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life, or travel while using the approaches above to build skills and steady routines.
