About Cynthia

Cynthia Fradl is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with more than 20 years of clinical experience helping people navigate difficult life challenges. As an LCSW she brings advanced training in clinical social work and years of hands-on practice across nonprofit organizations, hospital and clinical settings, and school environments. Her work has included support for people coping with the effects of past emotional or physical trauma, grief, depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, and other life and career transitions.

She also has experience working with long-term mental health conditions, including bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, and addresses a wide range of concerns such as stress, addictions, parenting and family issues, sleep and eating challenges, and caregiver fatigue. Cynthia emphasizes a warm, interactive therapy style that treats each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion while avoiding stigmatizing labels.

Her approach blends evidence-informed methods - including cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and client-centered principles - and she tailors conversations and treatment plans to each individual’s specific needs. Cynthia frames seeking help as a courageous first step and focuses on supporting and empowering clients as they build foundations for a more fulfilling life. She is currently accepting clients in Oregon.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify their values and take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions by encouraging psychological flexibility and committed action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, trauma-related symptoms, and coping with day-to-day challenges. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and collaboration, creating a supportive space where individuals lead the pace of their own work and feel understood - this approach can help with relationship issues, self-esteem, grief, and processing emotional concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Cynthia works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they explore interventions and adjust the plan as progress unfolds to ensure the work feels relevant and effective.

Online therapy with Cynthia is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for those with busy schedules, mobility limits, or caregiving responsibilities. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from home, and integrate therapy into everyday life while working with a licensed professional who tailors care to each individual’s circumstances.
