About Cynthia
Cynthia Bennett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with 20 years of clinical experience. She holds a Master of Arts in Counseling from Chicago State University and has worked in a range of settings during her career. Cynthia helps people address stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship strain, intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, career questions, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
She takes a straightforward, listening-focused approach. Sessions are conversational and focused on practical steps. She aims to be authentic and non-judgmental while helping people sort through current problems.
Cynthia draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the work grounded in the client’s perspective. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and build different habits. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy guide short-term problem solving and goal-setting when people want quicker change.
People turn to her when day-to-day life feels heavy or when a specific issue like parenting strain or addiction needs attention. She offers coaching-style support when clients want skills for coping and decision-making. Her background across community and clinical settings informs a practical, experience-based outlook.
If you want to begin, Cynthia asks that you complete the platform questionnaire and schedule a first session. She works in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
How Cynthia uses therapeutic approaches in online work
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify thoughts and behaviors that make problems worse and teaches practical ways to change them. It is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and building new coping skills.Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s perspective and priorities. The therapist listens closely and follows what matters most to the client, which supports work on relationship strain, parenting stress, or self-esteem concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Cynthia will discuss goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust based on what is helpful. That collaborative process helps shape whether the sessions emphasize short-term steps or deeper exploration.

Licensed professionals can use these formats to keep therapy practical and focused on the problems you want to address.
