More about Cynthia
- 35 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
As a licensed therapist in Connecticut with over three decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating life's complex emotional landscapes. My practice focuses on helping clients address challenges such as depression, anxiety, stress, and life transitions with compassion and expertise.
I am deeply committed to supporting individuals through difficult emotional experiences, including grief, self-esteem challenges, social anxiety, and personal transformations. My approach centers on empowering clients to develop stronger self-understanding, improve communication skills, and rediscover their sense of purpose and connection.
With a particular emphasis on women's experiences and caregiver support, I create a nurturing therapeutic environment where clients can explore their emotions, heal from past experiences, and develop resilient coping strategies. My goal is to walk alongside you as you build greater self-love, overcome isolation, and move toward meaningful personal growth.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
