Getting to know Cynthia Holmes

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Clinical Social Work from the University of Chicago: Hyde Park. I specialize in empowerment, helping folks overcome obstacles and live their best life. My approach is strengths-based, solution-focused, and action-oriented, working together to create sustainable positive changes in people’s lives. I enjoy working with motivated individuals who are open to trying new things. I work with people experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, negative thinking, family or relationship issues, body image concerns, LGBTQ-related issues, challenges with sex, substance abuse affecting a loved one, career transitions, discovering passion, figuring out the source of your struggle, increasing positivity and wellness, and finding balance and happiness. My practice is conveniently located downtown, close to most forms of public transportation and the beautiful Millennium Park.

Out-of-pocket fees and assistance
Initial session: $180 for 60 minutes
Ongoing session: $100-150 for 60 minutes
  • Sliding scale: Offers lower out-of-pocket fees on an individual basis, typically based on your ability to pay
  • Files your insurance claim: You pay the session fee upfront and the provider files the claim for you, so you can get reimbursed directly without worrying about the paperwork
  • Charges post-reimbursement amount: This provider will only charge you for the amount you pay after you get reimbursed from your insurance plan, so you don’t need to pay the session fee upfront

More information on payments and coverage

We accept Aetna, BlueCross and BlueShield, Anthem, Cigna and Evernorth, Optum, United Healthcare UHC | UBH, and several others under those umbrellas. We have a Billing Coordinator that will check your benefits *as a courtesy,* but verification of benefits is never a guarantee of payment with insurance companies, so it's always best to call them directly. We have guides to help you do that as well, so you know what to ask and get all the information you need.
