About Cindy

Cindy Burnett is an LPC with three decades of counseling experience based in South Carolina who supports people facing relationship struggles, parenting challenges, career transitions, stress, anxiety, trauma, mood disorders, and attention concerns.

Background and approach

She approaches care believing life paths are shaped by family origins, choices, and interactions, and she aims to help clients reframe how they understand and respond to difficult experiences. Her work includes addressing self-esteem, anger, bipolar and depressive symptoms, coping with life changes, and complex family dynamics including adoption, blended families, and divorce.

Her style blends client-centered listening with practical strategies drawn from cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused methods to encourage reflection, new perspectives, and workable changes. Over a 30-year career she has served children, adolescents, adults, and families across schools and community mental health settings, including supporting people with intellectual disabilities and those navigating career shifts.

Cindy describes therapy as a collaborative, individualized process aimed at improving relationships, increasing self-awareness, and helping clients move toward goals with encouragement and compassion.

CBT, Mindfulness, and Collaborative Care Online

Many clients benefit from cognitive behavioral work that explores the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors; CBT offers concrete tools for managing anxiety, mood symptoms, anger, and unhelpful patterns. Client-centered methods prioritize empathic listening and respect for each person’s experience so the therapist can support self-exploration and strengthen personal resources. Mindfulness techniques teach present-focused awareness and stress-management skills that can reduce reactivity and support coping with trauma, life transitions, and ongoing stressors.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Cindy partners with clients to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and together they adapt interventions from CBT, client-centered work, or mindfulness so therapy fits the person’s needs and pace.

Online formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to access regular care while balancing work, family, and other commitments. These options provide flexibility in scheduling and communication style so clients can continue progress from home or on the go while working with licensed professionals who tailor strategies to each situation.
