I have over 25-years of experience working with adults, adolescents, and children within agencies and the community environment. I find it a pleasure to serve families or individuals who are challenged with life stress, grief issues, abandonment, adjustment disorders, depression, and mental health needs etc. Therefore, I strive for quality service to ensure positive results. However, it is important for me to reflect, listen, and communicate to make sure that I have a clear understanding of my client’s needs.

Cindy believes humans are physical, mental, emotional, sexual and spiritual beings thus the goal of therapy is to obtain health in all areas of one's being. I believe a client takes the first step to healing as soon as the counseling appointment is made. It's a privilege to observe transformation in a client on the road to hope and healing by focusing on the strengths from within the client. It is exciting to watch a couple go from the brink of divorce to a marriage better than ever.

The path of life can be full of twists and turns and it's easy to become overwhelmed, especially in times of change and transition. Do you find yourself at a crossroads, not knowing where to turn? I believe there is hope, even in the most difficult of circumstances. I enjoy helping others regain their sense of hope by developing insight and tapping into their strengths and abilities. In doing so, healthier, more successful ways of coping with life's challenges can begin to emerge.

Reaching out for therapy often means you’re exhausted from carrying things that others can’t see. You may feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how you got here—and still be expected to keep going. Whether this is your first experience with counseling or you’re trying again, you deserve a place where your pain makes sense and nothing has to be minimized. I offer a warm, steady space to slow down, be honest, and feel understood. Even when life feels heavy or confusing, healing is possible, and there can be meaning, relief, and moments of light ahead.

I bring many years of experience in partnering with individuals on their journey towards healing and life satisfaction. I provide a comprehensive range of therapeutic services to adults and adolescents of all ages. I specialize in treatment for those coping with or recovering from narcissistic abuse. Narcissistic abuse can have a profound impact on self-esteem, leading to self-doubt and introspection: ‘Why did I stay so long? Why can’t I change them? Is everything really my fault? How can I trust myself to choose a healthy romantic partner in the future?’ As a survivor of narcissistic abuse, I wrestled with those questions myself.

I have been providing quality treatment to children, adolescents and adults for over 25 years. I believe in the change process and that we each have the ability to improve our relationships and experience personal growth. I believe personal growth is facilitated through the relationship with a therapist that provides positive regard and understanding without the fear of judgment. I believe in treating the whole person through awareness, self regulation and focusing on the here and now.

I have worked as a counselor for over 30 years providing individual, marital and family counseling.
I am a "Problem Solver". My goal is to help work though whatever the problem is so life can move forward. Too many people become "stuck". We need to learn to solve what we can and move past what we cannot. Life is too short to spend it in a state of unhappiness. I do not make demands or pressure. I listen. But I will give guidance and opinions. Many individuals become anxious or depressed as life or relationships can drain you empty.

I AM NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS AT THIS TIME. Over 25 years of experience with those who are grieving, people at end-of-life, older clients, and people in crisis have shown me life events occur in the context of personal story. My goals are to create a safe place to share that story, and to facilitate the client experiencing the story with increased awareness, compassion and respect. We will explore and celebrate strengths, and through a multitude of interventions ranging from getting to know the client's system, education, mindfulness, reflection and dream work, find ways to enhance the client's strengths and wisdom.

Do you struggle with anxiety, fear, grief, depression? Are you having difficulty adjusting to an important life transition? Do painful emotions stop you from doing the things you enjoy or interfere with work, relationships and self-confidence? For the last 30 years I have taught clients how to skillfully manage difficult emotions and unhelpful patterns of mind that feel unbearable. I would like to help you discover a new path forward, one that teaches you how to respond mindfully and compassionately to emotional difficulties and life's uncertainties, and best nourishes your deepest capacity for healing.
