About Cynthia

Cynthia Wells is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who draws on five years of clinical experience to support people facing a wide range of emotional and life challenges.

Background and approach

She commonly works with concerns such as depression, stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, bipolar disorder, addictions, relationship and family difficulties, and ADHD. Her practice emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion while tailoring conversations and treatment plans to each person’s needs.

Cynthia favors collaborative work that meets clients where they are, helping them identify goals and practical strategies for coping with change, improving communication, and strengthening self-worth. She integrates evidence-based approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and client-centered methods to match technique to the issue at hand.

Cynthia accepts international clients and offers sessions in English, aiming to make therapeutic support adaptable to different schedules and life circumstances.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and learn practical ways to live in line with what matters to them, which can be useful for issues like anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behavioral strategies to reduce distress and improve daily functioning, commonly used for mood and anxiety concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness that can aid clients managing intense emotions or impulsive behaviors.

Cynthia approaches choice of method as a collaborative process, exploring which combination of techniques best fits a client's goals, circumstances, and preferences. She works with clients to try approaches in session and adjust plans as needed so therapy stays practical and relevant.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These formats let clients engage from different locations, fit sessions into busy schedules, and continue work between appointments through written or live exchanges, while maintaining the same therapeutic focus used in in-person care.
