About Cynthia
Cynthia Prince is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York who supports people handling stress, anxiety, sleep problems, grief, and relationship struggles. She has decades of front-line experience working across community and clinical settings. Cynthia writes plainly, uses humor, and aims to make therapy feel approachable and down-to-earth.
She spent much of her career in public systems, including long-term roles with the State of New York and work as an on-call psychiatric evaluator in emergency settings. Cynthia has also provided care in residential and outpatient programs and in a family medical center, seeing college students and community members.
Cynthia tailors care to each person rather than relying on labels. She often draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to break down unhelpful thinking and build new habits. She also integrates attachment-based ideas and acceptance-oriented practices to help people cope with loss, abandonment concerns, and trauma.
Sessions are conversational and practical. Cynthia uses humor and an emotional support pet named Major in lighter moments when appropriate. She focuses on small, doable steps toward better sleep, clearer boundaries, and improved coping with life changes.
With 38 years of experience, she brings a broad perspective on complex issues like bipolar disorder, addictions, chronic illness, and ADHD. Prospective clients who want to begin can follow the site’s Start Therapy steps to match and schedule a first session.
Therapeutic approaches and what they offer
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing the behaviors that keep problems going; it is often used for anxiety, sleep disruption, and depression. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and can help with abandonment worries, relationship struggles, and intimacy issues. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to accept difficult feelings while moving toward what matters, which can be useful for coping with chronic stress and life transitions.Cynthia treats finding the right approach as a team effort. She will discuss goals and preferences, try out techniques, and adjust the plan based on what works for each person. That collaborative process helps shape sessions so they feel useful and realistic.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people use quieter settings, reduce screen time by choosing phone over video when helpful, and bring practical changes learned in sessions directly into daily routines.
