About Cynthia
Cynthia Prince is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York who helps people manage anger and a wide range of related concerns. She draws on nearly four decades of hands-on experience supporting people with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, relationship struggles, parenting strain, and trauma. Her approach is straightforward and down-to-earth.
She spent much of her career working in public settings, including hospital emergency evaluations and community medical centers.
Background and approach
That history means she is used to practical, fast-moving problems and to talking with people in moments of real distress. She has worked across many care settings and with people facing severe and complex challenges. Cynthia favors approaches that focus on what helps in day-to-day life.
She often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to notice and change patterns of thinking and doing. She also draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to help clients clarify values and take small, workable steps toward them. Her style is warm and humane.
She values respect and humor, and sometimes brings a light touch into sessions to ease tension. She also uses attachment-informed perspective to look at how past relationships shape current reactions. Sessions are tailored to each person’s needs.
Cynthia emphasizes practical skills for coping, clearer communication, and better emotional regulation. She accepts English-speaking clients, including international clients, and offers several online formats to fit different schedules.

How Cynthia’s approaches translate to online care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep stress and anger going. It is useful for problems like anxiety, depression, anger, and sleep or eating difficulties. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, focuses on what matters most to you and on taking small steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult feelings. This approach can help with grief, trauma, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating and reacting, and it can be helpful when relationship patterns or abandonment issues drive difficult emotions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cynthia will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort level, and practical needs. She adapts tools from these approaches rather than using a single method, and will check in regularly to make sure the plan feels helpful.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper discussion. Phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or a time with lower bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter updates, skill reminders, or when someone prefers writing. These options help people schedule therapy around work, school, or caregiving responsibilities and make it easier to keep momentum between sessions.
