About Cynthia
Cynthia Yanez is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing trauma and abuse, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting stress, and big life changes. Cynthia works collaboratively and focuses on practical steps people can take right now. Her style is gentle and direct, aimed at making difficult feelings easier to understand and manage.
Cynthia uses self-understanding and awareness as a starting point for change. She helps clients identify old assumptions that get in the way and then untangle those patterns so they stop shaping daily choices. Sessions often include talking through feelings, testing small behavior changes, and finding clearer ways to meet personal goals.
Her background includes a decade of clinical experience as an LCSW. Cynthia blends insight-oriented work with evidence-informed techniques when useful. That combination lets her shift between exploring meaning and focusing on concrete changes depending on what the person needs.
Cynthia supports people who are coping with grief, compassion fatigue, stress, anger, or questions about identity and intimacy. She also works with concerns like adoption and foster care issues, blended family concerns, and immigration-related stress. Conversations can cover career and self-esteem challenges, ADHD, and other everyday strains.
Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. Cynthia practices in Florida and brings a straightforward, collaborative approach that aims to help people feel less stuck and more able to choose next steps.

Approaches that translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building trust so people feel heard and can discover their own answers; it helps with self-esteem, identity questions, and relational concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how people experience and respond to emotions in relationships and aims to create new ways of connecting and regulating feeling when anxiety, anger, or intimacy issues come up. Existential Therapy invites people to examine meaning, choices, and values when facing life transitions or grief, helping to reframe difficult decisions and clarify priorities.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Cynthia will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try approaches that fit. That process is collaborative and can shift over time based on progress and feedback.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some people also prefer a video session for deeper interaction or an audio option when bandwidth is limited. Ask about available formats so sessions match your needs and daily life.
