How do you work with clients with trauma and PTSD?

Hello! My name is Cynthia but prefer Cindy. I live in the Southern Tier of NY with my dog and two cats (my office assistants!)

In life we go through challenges that we do not expect to experience. The variety of challenges can mentally impact our daily lives. As your therapist my goal is to work collaboratively with you to address issues such as anxiety, depression, life adjustments, and substance abuse. My goal is to assist you in finding healthy ways to cope. By using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Person Centered Therapy, and Motivational Enhancement Therapy I would like to help you navigate through life in a judgment free zone. During this season of your life I will guide you in identifying areas of change and assist you to define goals that will transform your life in a safe supportive environment. My desire is that you will take the necessary steps to begin the process of healing and restoration. I provide a caring, authentic, and collaborative approach in the therapy process. Therefore, I invite you to call me if you need help and are going through a difficult time. I’m here for you and your family. I look forward to hearing from you.

I am passionate about helping individuals achieve sustainable weight loss by addressing the root causes of weight gain. Rather than relying on fad diets or quick fixes, I use a functional medicine approach to identify metabolic imbalances, hormone dysfunction, gut health issues, and inflammation that may be holding you back. In addition to personalized nutrition and lifestyle strategies, I offer compounded GLP-1 medications as a tool to support appetite regulation and metabolic health. My goal is to help you lose weight, keep it off, and feel your best—focusing on long-term health, not just the number on the scale. As a rheumatoid arthritis warrior myself, I specialize in helping others battling autoimmune conditions. My focus is on reversing inflammation and addressing the root cause to support lasting healing. Treatment philosophy I believe in compassionate, patient-centered care. Every patient deserves individual attention and personalized treatment plans. I aim to understand each patient's unique story, including their health, lifestyle, and needs. By using the latest research and technology, I create tailored programs that not only address current issues but promote long-term health. Collaboration is key. I work closely with a team of health professionals to ensure comprehensive support. Education is also a priority—I empower patients with knowledge about their health, nutrition, and wellness strategies. Together, we monitor progress, adjusting plans as needed, for the best possible outcomes. Your health journey is my passion.
