About Cynthia
She helps people facing relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, depression, and attention-related difficulties. Her practice also addresses communication problems, guilt and shame, forgiveness, jealousy, multicultural concerns, personality disorder issues, and prejudice and discrimination. Sessions aim to be conversational and practical.
In the therapy room she creates an open space for honest talk. She uses approaches that center the client's perspective. That means listening closely, reflecting what she hears, and helping people try small changes between sessions.
Her work blends short-term problem solving with deeper emotional work when needed. She uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral and emotionally-focused techniques. She also draws on solution-focused and trauma-focused methods to match a person's goals.
Dr. White supports caregivers who are managing parenting strain and families dealing with grief and anger. She encourages steps that fit into daily life and checks progress as therapy continues.
How chosen approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the person leads the conversation. Online sessions using this approach let clients name the topics they want to address and guide the pace of work.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. In virtual sessions this often means setting concrete goals, practicing small behavioral experiments between meetings, and reviewing results together.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on identifying and reshaping emotional responses that affect relationships. Online EFT sessions can include mapping emotional patterns and trying new ways of expressing needs during follow-up work.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked before. Together they will try methods that fit the person's needs and adjust the plan as progress is checked.
The therapist's biography notes experience with telemental health, but current session formats are not fully specified here. Confirm which online or in-person options are offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people use phone-only sessions when bandwidth or the need to be off-camera matters.
