Cindy Reyes, LCSW

Cindy Reyes, LCSW, is a bilingual therapist who brings 11 years of experience supporting individuals and families through emotional and life challenges. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master of Social Work degree, she has worked extensively in community mental health settings, helping people manage anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, stress, grief, and relationship difficulties. She is fluent in English and Spanish and offers clinical care that honors cultural and personal context.

Cindy integrates evidence-based therapeutic techniques into a compassionate, client-centered practice. Her training includes Dialectical Behavior Therapy and trauma-informed care, and she regularly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness strategies, strength-based approaches, and solution-focused methods to help clients build practical coping skills and reach their goals. She also has specialized experience conducting immigration psychological evaluations and assessments used for asylum, extreme hardship waivers, VAWA, U-Visa, T-Visa, N-648 disability waivers, and substance abuse evaluations.

Her approach is collaborative and tailored to each person’s needs, with an emphasis on identifying strengths and resilience. Cindy works with people facing stress, mood disorders, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem concerns, and complex life transitions, guiding them toward increased stability and a clearer sense of direction. She aims to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and empowered to make meaningful change.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care

Cindy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors; this practical approach is often useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday challenges. She also employs Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions and relationship struggles. In addition, trauma-informed care shapes how she assesses and supports survivors of abuse and traumatic experiences, focusing on safety, stabilization, and pacing of treatment.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Cindy works with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and she adjusts techniques over time so therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single method.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited local options. Sessions can take place via video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose the format that best supports their comfort and consistency. Licensed professionals can provide effective therapeutic work through these modalities while making care more accessible across distances.
