Cynthia Hooyman

Hello, and welcome. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with three years of experience in the mental health field. I understand that reaching out for therapy can feel awkward, uncomfortable, or even intimidating at first. Therapy is a deeply personal experience, and I believe that feeling safe and understood is an important part of the process.

My approach is warm, genuine, and trauma-informed. I strive to meet clients where they are and create an environment where they can show up as their authentic selves without fear of judgment. I understand that not everyone is ready to discuss their most difficult experiences right away, and that’s okay. Building trust takes time.

While I will never force clients to talk about something before they are ready, I also believe that growth happens when we gently step outside of our comfort zones. My role is to walk alongside you, help you build insight and coping skills, and support you in moving toward the life you want in a way that feels safe, manageable, and meaningful.

Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship concerns, or simply feeling stuck, I am here to help. My goal is to provide a supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to create lasting change.
