Getting to know Cynthia Baxter
30+ years helping clients battle stress and anxiety. I work with professionals in high-performance roles, busy parents, caregivers, those navigating conflicts, and those balancing life transitions. Clients often describe me as a calm, grounding presence in the midst of life’s chaos. You can expect a safe, non-judgmental space where your experiences are met with empathy and respect. I bring over three decades of experience through working together, blending proven therapeutic approaches with a deep commitment to truly seeing and supporting you. I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion, consistency, and care.
Provide multi-faceted approaches that encompass therapeutic techniques that emphasize strength-based Person-Centered approaches that are culturally sensitive to combat stigma.
Will establish a rapport to address the identified needs disclosed by the client. Will clarify the clients’ needs and re-orient the client to the direction of the session, addressing the presenting problems/issues. The ideal client would be a client who is motivated, has self-awareness, and is committed to working through the therapeutic process. Support clients’ needs by responding to their concerns. Also, by getting feedback from the clients to ensure that their needs and goals are being addressed.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I use a wide range of communication styles to foster understanding, empathy, support, and utilize methods such as active listening, give clients the opportunity to reflect on their experiences, engaging as empathetic partners in the process. I always “go where my client goes” in the process, "meet clients where they are".
My journey started when I recognized that I always enjoyed helping family and friends solve problems and being a good listener. I recognized I possess talent and skills with problem resolution when communicating with family and friends, which ended in favorable results. I then decided to explore professional careers that would enable me to become a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. By entering the educational arena for the School of Social Work, I gained professional clinical skills, knowledge, theories, and techniques to provide professional clinical counseling services to individuals seeking counseling.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I will assist the client with identifying and setting goals that matter to them. Will assist the client in setting short-term as well as long-term goals and include action steps to take that could help the client accomplish their goals. Will engage the client in a discussion to establish an appropriate and adjusted timeline attached to each goal.
My first therapeutic session with a client will involve introducing myself. I will then explain Confidentiality, HPPA regulations, and safety procedures. Will then start the process of gathering personal and mental health history to clarify the reason for seeking counseling /presenting problems/issues. Then restate to the client the presenting problem/issues and ask the client if clarity is warranted and if there are any questions.
