About Cindy
Cindy Burnett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with 30 years of experience. She works with adults on relationship strain, parenting stress, codependency patterns, anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and life changes. Cindy helps people who keep putting others first, who have trouble saying no, or who feel lost around a partner's moods or substance use.
Cindy uses client-centered and solution-focused methods to help people notice what matters to them and make small changes. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and on mindfulness practices to build steadying skills for stress and strong emotions. Sessions are practical and conversational rather than formal or lecture-like.
In the room she listens for how a person learned to cope and what keeps patterns going now. Conversations include clear, doable steps - things to try between sessions and ways to notice progress. She also helps people sort through parenting and blended family challenges, adoption and foster care concerns, and workplace transitions.
Cindy has worked across schools and community mental health settings and has experience with intellectual disability supports and adolescent needs. Her background includes two master’s degrees from Clemson University and a Global Career Development Facilitator credential used for career guidance during transitions. She frames therapy as a collaborative process aimed at increasing self-awareness and improving relationships.
People who prefer straightforward, step-by-step conversation about boundaries, communication, mood, and coping may find this approach useful. Prospective clients should confirm session formats and scheduling options before booking.
How sessions work
How approaches like client-centered work in online sessions
Client-centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can notice what matters and make their own choices. In practice this means conversations that prioritize the client's perspective and pace, which can help with relationship patterns and self-esteem issues.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and tests small changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and for shifting people-pleasing or codependent behaviors through concrete experiments and homework tasks.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and together decide which methods to use. That collaborative decision can change as progress is made and needs shift.
Session formats are not listed here, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example shorter check-ins during a work break, or a session that avoids travel time. They can also allow for different ways of working such as exercises done between meetings and using mindfulness practices during ordinary daily moments.
