Cynthia Barrett is a clinical social worker with 25 years of experience providing therapy and counseling across a variety of settings. She has worked with people facing depression, anxiety, stress, career concerns, family and couples issues, military-related challenges, trauma and abuse, and other life transitions.
She holds licensure as a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in Alabama and Massachusetts and is also licensed as a clinical social worker in Florida and New Jersey; her Alabama license is AL LICSW 3807C and her Florida license is FL LCSW SW10154. Cynthia practices from Alabama.
Her therapeutic style is warm, inviting, and open, grounded in respect, sensitivity, and compassion while avoiding labels and stigma. With a foundation in cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered counseling, she collaborates with each person to develop treatment plans tailored to their specific needs and goals.
Cynthia recognizes the courage it takes to seek a happier, more fulfilling life and aims to support and encourage clients as they take the first steps toward change. At this time she is available only on Saturdays; interested clients are encouraged to visit her calendar to schedule an initial session, and she looks forward to working with them.
Many people ask whether remote therapy actually helps. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.
Flexibility is one of the main advantages - clients can connect in the format that feels most comfortable, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine.
All therapists offering these services are licensed professionals, and clients may choose to switch providers at any time if they want a different therapeutic match.
