More about Cynthia
- 10 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical therapist in New Mexico with over 10 years of experience supporting those with a wide range of concerns. I know that no single approach is the right one for every individual, and so I have been trained in a range of modalities including, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, Trauma Informed Care, Strength Based Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy.
I am passionate about working with adolescents and adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationships, self-esteem and confidence, trauma, behavioral patterns and stress management.
My goal as a therapist is to help you make sense of difficult past experiences and make meaningful changes in your life. We will work together to help you acquire the tools needed to make progress in your goals. I believe therapist is most effective when personalized to meet the needs, strengths and goals.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

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.
