Cynthia Fradl, LCSW

Cynthia Fradl is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Oregon with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, and addiction-related concerns. Cynthia also addresses longer-term mood disorders such as bipolar disorder and helps people affected by trauma and abuse.

She uses clear, interactive sessions that focus on what matters most to the client. Conversations tend to be practical. Cynthia blends approaches like cognitive behavioral strategies, mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered methods, and emotionally-focused ideas. Sessions look at thoughts, feelings, and everyday actions that get in the way of goals.

Her background includes work in nonprofits, hospitals and school settings. That range informs how she supports people during life and career transitions, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and grief. She also brings experience helping people who are coping with attachment concerns, abandonment, communication issues, and codependency patterns.

In session she listens for patterns that keep people putting others first or avoiding their own needs. Then she helps identify small changes to protect personal time, manage triggers, and improve boundaries. The focus is on manageable steps rather than large overhauls.

Clients can expect straightforward conversations about goals and obstacles. Cynthia works with people to try techniques from CBT, ACT, and mindfulness during sessions. She helps track what works and adjusts the plan as needed.
