Cynthia Yzaguirre

Cynthia Yzaguirre is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who brings 22 years of experience to people facing major life transitions. She centers sessions on the person in front of her and helps clients find practical ways to cope with change, stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship problems. Cynthia uses clear, direct guidance so clients can begin making small shifts right away.

Her background includes long experience as a counselor and educator, and she draws on several therapy approaches to match each person’s needs. Cynthia often uses client-centered work to build a trusting conversation and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors. She also incorporates skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy when emotion regulation or intense reactions are a concern.

In sessions she focuses on setting realistic goals and teaching usable strategies. Parents may receive help with parenting challenges and blended family issues, and people facing career changes, grief, or coping with life changes can get step-by-step tools. She also addresses concerns such as self-esteem, anger, eating and sleeping problems, addiction-related issues, and compassion fatigue.

Cynthia emphasizes collaboration and practical homework between visits. She invites honest conversation and aims to keep sessions straightforward and goal oriented. Her practice in Florida reflects years of real-world counseling experience and a willingness to adjust methods to each person’s situation.

People who want to start are encouraged to think about current goals and challenges before booking. Cynthia works with clients to choose approaches and strategies that fit their lives and priorities.

How her approaches guide online work

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought that affect feelings and behavior, then trying new behaviors and thought strategies to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. It is often used for mood concerns, sleep problems, and life-change adjustment.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space so clients can explore their goals. This approach helps people clarify priorities during transitions and decide what changes to try next.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. Cynthia will work with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and pace. She checks in as goals evolve and adapts strategies to what is helpful in day-to-day life.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and let people keep appointments during work breaks or when life is hectic. Some approaches lend themselves to short skills practice while others use longer conversations, and Cynthia will help design session plans that fit each person’s schedule and objectives.
