Cynthia Wells, LMHC

Cynthia Wells is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and bipolar disorder. She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Cynthia frames the work around what matters most to the individual and adapts the conversation and plan to fit those goals.

Her practice emphasizes practical, down-to-earth support. Sessions are focused on clear goals and simple tools people can use between meetings. She listens for patterns that keep people stuck and offers strategies to shift them over time.

Cynthia draws on a mix of approaches to match the needs of the person she is seeing. That can mean learning new ways to handle difficult thoughts, practicing emotional skills, or clarifying values to guide life changes. The work is collaborative - the client and Cynthia set the pace together.

She brings five years of clinical experience in community and outpatient settings across Florida. This experience includes work with addiction, relationship concerns, parenting stress, caregiver strain, ADHD, and compassion fatigue among other issues.

People often come to her when they are facing major transitions, feeling overwhelmed, or wanting a clearer path forward. She will help identify priorities and build a step-by-step plan for change.

Approaches that translate to online work

Cynthia commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action even when difficult thoughts are present; it can help with life transitions and chronic worry. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship so people can explore feelings at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches skills to change them, which is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, what has helped before, and what feels manageable. Together they decide which methods to prioritize and adjust the plan as progress is made.

If you prefer online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking since the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow for brief check-ins when a full in-person visit is hard to arrange. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, client-centered skills, and CBT techniques to remote sessions so people continue building skills and tracking change.
