About Us

Cinda first became interested in autism at the age of 5 due to an encounter with a child suffering from the disorder at a doctor's office. When she asked what was wrong with the child, a nurse replied that the child was locked inside his mind. Even at that age, Cinda was very in tune with her own mind, and felt horrified that any child was locked inside their mind. From that time, Cinda developed a lifelong interest in freeing people from anything that locks them inside. As a young adult, Cinda began her own intensive study of Autism and subsequently ADHD as two prominent pervasive neurodevelopmental disorders that were also the most treatable. With her own subsequent background in trauma, she developed an affinity for understanding and treating PTSD, a disorder that had a tendency to lock sufferers inside their own pasts. There was a natural flow from these disorders to developing an understanding of dissociative disorders, particularly Disociative Identity Disorder (DID) and garnering training and experience in treating this complex panorama of disorders. These four major disorders formed the basis for her strong neuroscience background that then branched out to a desire to understand and treat other disorders effectively, as well as helping other therapists to do the same. Cinda has significant experience in providing close support and supervision to interns and pre-liscened therapists, formal and informal training to peers and collegues, and consultations to those on their own journeys to help others.

I am a pre-licensed therapist with ten years of experience in Mental Health Counseling, specializing in trauma therapy, talk therapy, and supporting special populations. My approach is rooted in evidence-based techniques derived from research and neuroscience. I employ methods such as Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI), alongside creative arts, to assist clients in processing painful experiences and alleviating their impact. Most recently, I worked as a therapist with highly traumatized female inmates in a correctional facility for 15 months, which was a deeply rewarding experience. Additionally, I have provided support to at-risk youth for two years, assisted adults with opioid use disorder for one year, and worked with adults and teens experiencing substance use disorders for another year. For six years, I have taught psychology courses as an adjunct at UT Martin, Ripley Campus, which I have found to be incredibly fulfilling. I also operated as a licensed private investigator through my own business for several years. My passion for psychology ignited during my teenage years, fueled by a desire to help individuals facing psychological challenges. Personal experiences with mental health issues inspired me to bridge the gaps I encountered in my own upbringing, motivating me to be the supportive figure I once needed. Alongside trauma work, I possess considerable experience helping clients manage anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, workplace issues, substance use disorders, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Bipolar Disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), Schizoaffective Disorder, and more. I also have some experience with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) and Antisocial Personality Disorder (APD). I am dedicated to guiding clients in overcoming intrusive memories, minimizing internal pain, enhancing emotional regulation, and building insight to strengthen resilience and self-understanding. If you are feeling overwhelmed by past experiences, I want to reassure you that healing is within reach with the right treatment and support. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental environment where processing, growth, and moving forward can take place. I invite you to take the next step toward healing with me.
