Cynthia Martinez, LPC

Cynthia Martinez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and parenting challenges. She works with issues related to trauma and abuse, self-esteem, anger, career change, and compassion fatigue. Cynthia speaks English and Spanish and aims to make therapy approachable and straightforward.

Cynthia uses practical, evidence-informed methods to guide conversations. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered approaches, and mindfulness techniques. Sessions focus on clear steps people can try between meetings and on small shifts that add up over time.

Her style is warm and collaborative. She listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps people set realistic goals. Cynthia avoids labeling and instead focuses on what each person wants to change and how to get there.

Clients can expect a mix of talking, skill practice, and simple exercises that build coping skills. Work in therapy may include addressing attachment or abandonment concerns, communication problems, blended family stress, body image, caregiving strain, or navigating divorce and separation.

With three years of clinical experience, Cynthia blends practical strategies with empathy. She will tailor a plan to each person’s needs and preferences, helping them move toward clearer choices and more manageable days.

How Cynthia’s approaches work online

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and then try small experiments to change unhelpful patterns. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress by building specific coping skills.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and taking committed action. It often helps with grief, chronic stress, and life transitions by guiding practical choices aligned with what matters most.

Cynthia treats finding the right method as a team effort. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then shape sessions around what seems most helpful. That collaborative approach means techniques can shift over time as needs change.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can fit quick check-ins or shorter weekly contacts. These options aim to make therapy flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
