About Cynthia

Cynthia Wells is a Florida LMHC with five years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with depression, stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and bipolar disorder. Cynthia works with individuals who need practical ways to manage overwhelming feelings and life changes.

She often uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at emotions and attachment patterns that influence relationships and daily life. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Sessions focus on concrete skills and clear steps people can try between meetings.

Cynthia explains options in plain language and listens for what matters most to each person. She adapts conversation and tools to the issues someone brings, whether that is coping with loss, handling stress at work, or navigating mood swings. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused.

Her work includes helping people address burnout, compassion fatigue, parenting stress, and problems with self-esteem and communication. Cynthia also supports those facing addiction, career transitions, or questions around attachment and abandonment. She blends several methods to match each person's situation.

People who choose Cynthia can expect straightforward discussion about practical steps and longer-term patterns. She asks about what has helped before and builds from there. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

Approaches for emotion work and behavior change

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks closely at emotions and attachment patterns to help people understand painful feelings and how those feelings shape their reactions. EFT can be useful when emotions are hard to name or when longstanding relational patterns cause distress.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that align with personal values. This approach is often helpful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try different methods, and decide collaboratively which tools fit best for the person's situation and preferences.
