Cinthya Marrero, LCSW

Cinthya Marrero is a licensed clinical social worker who uses practical, evidence-based methods to help people get unstuck. She combines clear strategies with a calm, supportive presence. Her work focuses on stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and ADHD concerns.

In sessions she emphasizes straightforward tools that can be used day to day. She helps clients notice unhelpful thoughts and test them, build coping skills for intense emotions, and practice small changes that improve confidence. Conversations are kept direct and grounded so clients can see progress between meetings.

She also addresses guilt, shame, impulsivity, loneliness, self-love, and social anxiety. That can mean learning emotion regulation skills, trying new behaviors in small steps, or practicing different ways to speak to oneself. The aim is to reduce overwhelm and increase choices in stressful moments.

Cinthya draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy alongside client-centered and mindfulness approaches. This mix lets her tailor sessions to each person’s needs rather than following one fixed plan. She speaks English and Spanish and practices throughout Texas.

People meet her for practical support and for steady guidance while they work toward clearer goals. She encourages honest talk, focused skill-building, and decisions that fit each person’s life.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test them with real-life experiments. Online sessions can guide you through thought records, behavioral experiments, and step-by-step homework that you complete between meetings. DBT focuses on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Through DBT-informed work online, clients can learn skill modules, practice grounding techniques during phone or video sessions, and review skills via text when they need quick reminders.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels helpful. Together they choose which methods to try and adjust them over time if something does not fit.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make therapy more flexible. Video lets you read facial expressions and practice skills in real time. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, skill coaching, or follow-up between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to use tools when they matter most.
