“The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction both are transformed.”

Carl Jung

Welcome, I'm Cynthia Sea, LMFT.
I'm currently taking clients for video sessions on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Never met with a therapist online before?

So far each of the clients that were initially reluctant have told me they love the connivence and privacy of meeting from their homes.

Quality Care You Can Count On

I work with adults that are experiencing life disruption due to trauma. Trauma therapy has been my focus for the last 20 years.

Everybody has times when professional help is needed to cope with life’s challenges.  I have over 20 years of experience as a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have training and experience in life transitions, trauma support and EMDR.

Every person has unique strengths and weaknesses. I can help you to set goals. And equip you with the tools and strategies that you need achieve those goals.

I’m here to support you on your journey.

How to Get Started

By phone or email you give me your email address.

I send you a portal to a protected sight.

On that site I place opening paperwork for you to fill out.

I use standardized forms provided by Simple Practice. Then we can talk on the phone and come up with a good time to meet together.

What To Expect At Your Visit

There are rarely any simple reasons for behavior. This belief leads me to approach the counseling process with respect for every individual. Change patterns of thinking and patterns of behavior change. With the right Tools for Understanding patterns are changed. I want you to help you to experience amazing joy and satisfaction in your life.

Addition information: Please be aware that being in therapy is kind of like taking on a part time job. Because of the material in your life that we are addressing life may get worse before it gets better. Or little to no progress may be made. But my hope is that I can support you in finding the tools that improve your life. So that you will gain joy and satisfaction. As you can tell by my business name, I'm all about teaching you tools. I use mostly Cognitive Behavioral therapy (focuses on thought patterns, the feelings they generate and the actions that follow), Solution Focused Therapy (focuses on identifying, using and building upon your strengths), Crisis Intervention (see my video here on EMDR, Trama informed therapy catered to individual needs). 

The average time a person is in therapy is probably 10 sessions. so that cost would be $1400.00. because this can be costly some people prefer to have sessions every other week. And I usually give you some homework. Doing the homework may really speed up the process.

Please give me a call. I'd be glad about setting up a 15-minute introductory session and answer your questions. With Hope, Cynthia
