About Cynthia
Cynthia Martinez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with three years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and codependency among other concerns. Cynthia offers sessions in English and Spanish and has experience in inpatient and community settings.
Her approach is conversational and practical. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people notice values and take small steps toward them. Mindfulness practices are used to calm the mind and reduce reactivity in stressful moments.
Cynthia has worked in case management, crisis intervention, and stabilization, and she has collaborated with multidisciplinary teams. That experience informs how she responds to people in acute distress and those coping with complex life events such as loss or caregiving strain. She has worked with people who experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
In sessions she focuses on clear, respectful conversation and practical skills. She helps people set boundaries, manage emotions like anger or guilt, and address codependency or attachment concerns. She also supports people facing parenting stresses, career transitions, and relationship intimacy issues.
People who prefer therapy in Spanish can work with her in that language. Cynthia notes that session costs vary with location and that therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How Cynthia applies her approaches in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. In practice this means naming what you care about and testing manageable actions that align with those priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying out different behaviors to see what changes. That can be useful for anxiety, depression, and relationship patterns where thoughts drive reactions.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Cynthia will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most useful based on their goals, symptoms, and preferences. Together they track progress and adjust the plan as needed rather than sticking to a single method from the start.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy week and reducing travel time. Because session options were not specified in the biography, confirm current session formats before booking. This makes it easier to plan around work, childcare, or caregiving responsibilities and to keep momentum between sessions.
