About Cynthia

Dr. Cynthia White brings seven years of counseling experience to her work in Mississippi, holding LPC, MD, and LCPC credentials.

Background and approach

She is licensed to practice in Maryland and Mississippi and offers help across a range of life challenges, drawing on multiple evidence-informed methods to guide clients toward clearer thinking and healthier relationships. Her practice emphasizes creating an open, nonjudgmental environment where clients can explore family conflicts, grief and loss, parenting questions, anger, and other personal concerns.

Dr. White works with children, adolescents, and adults and combines cognitive and emotion-focused tools with client-centered and solution-oriented strategies to tailor sessions to each person’s needs.

She offers a supportive, collaborative approach that encourages growth through practical skills and reflective conversation. Prospective clients who are ready to take a first step will find a therapist who prioritizes understanding, clarity, and steady progress while helping them build more satisfying patterns in relationships and daily life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Dr. White integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors; this approach is often used for mood concerns, anxiety, and practical problem solving. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, offering empathetic, nonjudgmental listening that supports self-exploration and personal growth. In addition, Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is used to explore and reshape relational patterns and emotional responses when interpersonal connections are central to the issue.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to clarify goals, preferences, and the nature of the concern, then recommend strategies that fit those needs while remaining open to adjustment as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, support continued work between sessions, and allow individuals in different locations within the therapist's licensed regions to participate without travel.
