Accepting New Clients. 10-15 minute consult within 24 hours. Welcome. My name is Cindy, and as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I support teens (13+), adults, couples, and families navigating complex trauma, deep emotional wounds, chronic pain, different-abilities(disability), and the challenges of military or high-stress lifestyles, blended family dynamics, and relationships. My style is soul-work rooted in depth, exploration, and mind-body principles. Are you ready to make a decision that can change your life? Your story isn't finished, it's about to get powerful!
I offer a reflective approach to process deep emotional patterns, understand your inner world, and build self-trust. I hold space for the full range of your story- both the pain and the strength. I see therapy as a co-created space where we can untangle survival strategies that no longer serve you, reclaim your sense of clarity, courage, and motivation.
My practice—Lineage Wellness—is rooted in the belief that healing is not just about feeling better; it’s about reclaiming your relationship with yourself, your body, and your boundaries. You can expect depth, internal reflection, and practical support that honors your full being. I'm ready to help you turn your pain into purpose! Let's talk...
