About Cynthia

Cynthia Thomas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who uses a collaborative, person-focused approach to help people work through life stressors. She speaks plainly in sessions and aims to make therapy feel practical and manageable for busy lives.

She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to prioritize what matters to each person, and uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Mindfulness techniques are woven in to help with stress, anxiety, and managing intense feelings.

Across 11 years of practice, Cynthia has supported people facing depression, relationship struggles, grief, trauma, and issues with addiction. She also works with concerns such as eating and body image, parenting strain, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and questions around intimacy and identity, including LGBT topics.

Sessions focus on concrete tools and steps that people can use between meetings. She helps clients set goals, practice new skills, and notice small shifts that add up over time. Conversations are paced to fit each person's needs and daily life.

Cynthia practices from Oklahoma and offers sessions in English. People who live outside the U.S. may be able to connect as well, so it is helpful to confirm options when starting. To begin, follow the platform prompts to match and schedule a time that fits your calendar.

How Cynthia’s approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, reflecting, and following what matters most to the person. This approach helps people feel heard and shapes sessions around their priorities and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, and it provides clear tools to try between meetings for issues like anxiety, depression, and unhelpful habits. Mindfulness Therapy brings simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and increase awareness of emotions.

Picking the right approach is part of the work together. Cynthia will talk with each person about needs, goals, and how they prefer to work, then suggest approaches to try. She adapts tools as progress is made and adjusts the plan based on what helps most.

Confirm the current session options when you start so you understand the available online formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. It can also let people use practices learned in session in real time between appointments. If you want to explore whether online sessions will work for your routine, mention that during the initial matching and scheduling steps.
