Getting to know Cynthia Cegla
Cynthia is a mental health counselor at Smart Therapy PC who has a passion for helping and empowering people to live their best lives. She graduated with a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Touro College and University System in New York. Cynthia's approach is client-centered, and she works collaboratively with clients to reach their desired goals. She uses an eclectic approach, including cognitive behavioral therapy, person-centered, psychodynamic, and solution-focused therapy.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I’m very passionate about helping people. I was born in Paraguay and moved to the US at the age of 13, and speak Spanish and English fluently. I use my life experience to help clients achieve their desired goals in an empathic and non-judgmental way.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
In the first session I will complete an intake assessment to gather as much information to better assess and get to know you, your history, and what concerns have brought you to therapy and therefore set up goals. The following sessions, we will engage in talk therapy while pulling from various modalities to help you achieve your goals. Our sessions are 45 min in length on a weekly basis.
Please allow 15 minutes before the session to do the intake paperwork.
I PROVIDE PSYCHOTHERAPY SERVICES ONLY; PLEASE NOTE I DON’T PROVIDE MEDICATION MANAGEMENT SERVICES.

She is a great listener. She asks all the right questions and takes very good notes to study and analyze for next session. She empathizes and is very soft spoken.
