Cynthia is very caring and compassionate. She listens with genuine interest in understanding your situation. She doesn’t ask too many questions all at once or make judgements, but patiently allows you to share at your own pace. She is also open to sharing her thoughts and experiences to help you feel less alone. I have met with a handful of therapists over the years and Cynthia has been a wonderful match for me.
