Cynthia is a recent graduate from Lamar University’s Clinical Mental Health Counseling program. Cynthia’s previous background comes from almost twenty years in education.
Before pursuing her Clinical Mental Health Counseling degree, Cynthia was a secondary level teacher in predominantly Title I schools in Central Texas and South Texas. Her passion for children, their families, and community has guided her to pursue a counseling degree to assist them on a deeper level.
Cynthia’s therapeutic approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), blended with a strong emphasis on person centered values, cultural sensitivity, and empowerment. She believes that meaningful change happens when clients are both supported and challenged to examine their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in a safe and affirming environment.
