Cynthia Martinez, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas, has three years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, trauma and abuse, parenting and career concerns. She also addresses LGBT issues, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and other life changes.

Cynthia uses clear, practical conversation to help people sort problems and set goals. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and mindfulness-based approaches. Sessions focus on skills, values, and small changes that can reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

She has experience in inpatient treatment and with multidisciplinary teams. Her background includes work with children, adolescents, womenfocused programs, and seniors programs in clinical settings. She speaks English and Spanish.

In session Cynthia prefers an interactive, respectful style. She avoids labels and concentrates on specific concerns like grief, trauma, parenting stress, and relationship communication. She helps people build practical strategies for coping, managing mood shifts, and addressing family-of-origin or blended family issues.

Typical topics she addresses include attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, caregiver stress, body image, anger, and forgiveness. She also works with more specific diagnoses such as Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder and supports people facing end-of-life and hospice-related concerns.
