About Cynthia

Cynthia Fletcher is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Kentucky with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with adults carrying stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, and issues tied to self-esteem and intimacy. Cynthia also addresses addictions, grief, LGBT concerns, parenting stress, career struggles, and complications tied to ADHD and bipolar conditions.

She uses practical talking, goal-setting, and skills practice to help people make changes. Sessions blend client-centered conversations with cognitive behavioral techniques and DBT skills work. She also uses emotionally-focused methods and EMDR for trauma when appropriate.

Cynthia treats concerns that often come with family life, such as blended family challenges, communication problems, codependency, and divorce or separation. She also supports people facing aging issues, body image worries, cancer-related stress, and burnout or compassion fatigue. Her work includes attention to attachment and abandonment themes, plus relationship dynamics around kink and alternative sex culture.

People can expect clear, direct conversation about problems and steps forward. She helps clients set short-term and longer-term goals and practices new skills between sessions. The approach mixes traditional therapy tools with less conventional options when they fit the person’s goals.

Sessions are offered in English and are based in Kentucky. The subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time. To begin, a person selects the See online therapy options button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules a first session.

How Cynthia’s approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful working relationship. In online sessions this means time spent hearing what matters most, reflecting it back, and helping the client decide next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and tests practical changes. Online CBT often uses brief exercises, thought records, and homework that fit into daily life. EMDR addresses traumatic memories through structured processing; in remote sessions the therapist guides the sequence and a person completes the steps while the therapist observes and supports.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cynthia will talk with the person about goals, symptoms, and preferences and then recommend which methods to try first. That choice can change over time as progress and needs become clearer, and the therapist treats the plan as collaborative.

The practical benefits of online work include easier scheduling and fitting sessions around work or family responsibilities, shorter check-ins when needed, and avoiding travel time. This profile does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. The emphasis is on making therapy fit daily life while using CBT, EMDR, or client-centered techniques as appropriate.
