About Cynthia
Cynthia Jenkins is a licensed mental health practitioner (LMHP) with 34 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction concerns, and relationship or intimacy issues. She also supports people facing career challenges, parenting strain, sleeping problems, mood disorders, and questions about life purpose or midlife change. She uses a practical, person-focused style.
Sessions are grounded in listening and understanding first. Cynthia draws on Jungian ideas alongside client-centered and cognitive-behavioral approaches to tailor work to each person.
Background and approach
Her background includes counseling in community centers, university settings, and services for older adults and low-income communities. She has taught psychology at colleges in Nebraska, Texas, and Missouri and spent years training post-graduate students on material they needed for professional exams.
Cynthia holds a Ph.D. in Social Psychology, and she spent decades as a licensed massage therapist, which shaped a holistic view of health and healing. Travel and time with people from varied cultural and spiritual perspectives inform her sensitivity to multicultural concerns. In sessions she aims to meet people where they are and find practical next steps.
Work can include talking through family-of-origin patterns, managing shame or guilt, coping with loss, and building skills to handle strong emotions. She encourages creative expression and connection to values as part of healing.

Therapeutic approaches and online options
Jungian Therapy invites people to look at personal stories, dreams, and symbols to find meaning and direction; it can help when someone feels stuck, empty, or searching for life purpose. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance, and working at the person’s pace so they feel heard while deciding what changes to make. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools for recognizing unhelpful thoughts and changing behavior patterns to reduce anxiety, depression, or problematic coping.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Cynthia aims to learn about a person's goals, values, and daily life and then suggests a mix of methods that fit those needs. The decision about which techniques to use is made collaboratively and can change as progress is made.
Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging gives flexibility for different routines. Video is useful for a full conversation and visual cues, phone works when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in, and chat or text messaging can support brief updates or ongoing reflections between sessions. These options let people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while staying connected to a licensed professional.
