About Cindy

Cindy Reyes, LCSW, is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California with 11 years of experience. She speaks English and Spanish and works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, and depression. She also helps people dealing with abandonment, attachment concerns, blended family issues, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and relationship and communication problems.

She previously worked in community mental health settings. That background means she has experience with a wide range of life stresses and complex situations. In sessions she focuses on practical skills, clearer thinking, and coping strategies people can use between meetings.

Her reported methods include evidence-based therapeutic techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, along with trauma-informed approaches and solution-focused strategies. These are used to identify goals, build coping skills, and address patterns that keep people stuck.

Cindy offers work that is collaborative and goal-oriented. She helps clients break down problems into manageable steps and practices techniques in-session that can be tried in daily life. She also supports people navigating major changes like divorce, illness, caregiving, or loss.

People choose her for straightforward guidance when they feel directionless after a change in work, relationship, or health. She asks about current stresses, clarifies priorities, and helps create a plan for next steps.

How evidence-based approaches are used in online sessions

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new ways of thinking and acting, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These skills can be useful when emotions feel overwhelming or relationships are strained.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different methods and decide together which techniques match the client's goals and daily life needs. That collaborative process includes trying approaches and adjusting as progress and preferences become clearer.

The original biography did not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make video or phone sessions possible when in-person visits are difficult, helping people practice skills in the context of their everyday routines.
