Cynthia Clay, MA

Cynthia Clay, MA

Psychologist
WV
Hi there, I'm Cynthia! I am a licensed psychologist interested in working with patients of all ages. My goal is to create a connection and relationship which facilitates working through issues and developing new insights and coping patterns. My approach Starting with the presenting problem and symptoms is key to identifying treatment goals, both short and long term. Priority is given to client needs/preferences as well as standards of care for presenting symptoms and diagnosis. I strive to provide a comfortable and friendly environment with a relationship based on therapeutic alliance and working the clients in development of skills and strategies to address symptoms and stressors they face. Ongoing discussion of treatment plan and its effectiveness is a regular part of sessions. My focus I am comfortable working with a variety of age groups and diagnostic populations. I specialize in working with children beginning at age 3. I do not have expertise in the areas of substance use disorders and marital therapy. My communication style I hope to promote a relaxed and friendly atmosphere which provides sound clinical interventions and coping skills training. A calm office environment and confidentiality are priorities as well. My journey to mental healthcare I have been working in the mental health field since obtaining my M.A. Degree in 1989. I picked my college major when I was in middle school and never looked back. What drew me most to the field was an opportunity to create relationships that lead to positive change. I have enjoyed working in various settings over the years “in the trenches,” gaining experience with various diagnostic groups. With expertise in both psychological testing and therapy I bring a broad brush of experience and skills to the therapy room. My goals for you Setting goals at the outset of treatment is done by discussion of the client’s focus and desired outcomes of the therapy.
