About Cynthia

Cynthia Collins-Jackson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, grief, parenting challenges, bipolar and mood disorders, ADHD, and related concerns.

Background and approach

She brings an integrative, strengths-focused approach informed by eight years of professional practice and prior work in inpatient psychiatric settings and mobile crisis outreach. Cynthia emphasizes empowerment and helping clients recognize their worth while navigating difficult life changes and loss.

Her clinical background includes training in EMDR, with advanced work related to chronic pain, and experience applying several evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and the Gottman Method.

She describes her style as warm and welcoming with a touch of humor, combining practical skills with empathy to address issues like impulsivity, guilt and shame, isolation, infidelity, personality disorders, post-traumatic stress, and women's issues.

Cynthia also holds ordination with extensive ministry experience, which contributes to her compassionate presence in sessions and a commitment to helping people move toward greater self-love and life purpose.

Approaches and Online Options for Practical Growth

Online therapy with Cynthia draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR as foundational tools. CBT focuses on identifying and reshaping unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and problems with coping, while offering concrete skills for everyday challenges. EMDR involves guided bilateral stimulation alongside memory processing techniques to help reduce the lingering impact of traumatic memories and related symptoms.

Finding the right approach is collaborative; Cynthia works with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences and may combine techniques over time. She emphasizes building skills, improving emotional regulation, and addressing the root of distress through a shared decision-making process rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for scheduling and make ongoing work more accessible across busy lives. These options let licensed professionals maintain continuity of care and adapt session styles to what helps each person make steady progress toward their goals.
