About Cindy
Cindy Molina is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with 19 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, career questions, and LGBT issues. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and reflect her work with trauma, attachment, and identity-related struggles.
She uses straightforward conversation to help people name what feels off and figure out practical next steps. That might mean looking at thoughts and behaviors that keep stress or low mood going. It can also mean practicing grounding and attention techniques to reduce overwhelm in the moment.
Cindy pays attention to the impact of early attachments and past trauma on current relationships and daily functioning. She often helps people who have struggled with abandonment, adoption or foster-care histories, and attachment challenges to understand how those experiences affect trust and intimacy now.
She also supports people navigating complex sexual or relationship choices, including kink and alternative sex culture, and assists those dealing with blended family dynamics, divorce, or separation. Work may include communication skills, setting boundaries, and managing commitment or control issues.
Her practice includes tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused steps aimed at small, achievable change. Cindy aims to collaborate with each person on goals they find meaningful and useful.
How her approaches translate to online work
The work often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change patterns of thought and behavior that keep anxiety or depression active. CBT sessions tend to include clear steps, homework exercises, and check-ins to track progress. Mindfulness Therapy is used alongside CBT to teach attention and breathing practices that reduce overwhelm and improve focus in stressful moments.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust the plan based on what the person finds helpful.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are scheduled. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow sessions in English or Spanish depending on the clinician. Ask about specific formats when you schedule so arrangements fit everyday life and commitments.
