About Cynthia
Cynthia Wells is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are facing depression, stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and bipolar disorder, among other concerns. Cynthia focuses on practical steps clients can use day to day to feel less overwhelmed.
She uses conversational, straightforward sessions that center on what the client wants to change. Sessions typically involve talking through current problems, learning skills to manage strong emotions, and testing small behavior changes between meetings. Cynthia draws from methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to guide this work.
Her background includes working with issues around relationships, parenting concerns, addiction, ADHD, self-esteem, and career stress. She also addresses attachment challenges, communication problems, caregiver stress, body image, and dissociation when these come up in sessions. She aims to help clients build routines and skills they can use outside of therapy.
Cynthia describes her approach as respectful and sensitive, and she adjusts conversation and planning to match each person’s situation. She can help someone who feels stuck after a life change, is managing mood swings, or needs support with grief or trauma reactions. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

How her therapeutic approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and getting unstuck when life feels overwhelming.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors. It suits depression, anxiety, and problems that respond to skill practice and structure.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. It can help with intense mood swings, self-directed anger, and patterns that feel out of control.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. Cynthia will work with each client to pick techniques that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She often mixes elements from different approaches so the work stays practical and goal-focused.
