About Cindy

Cindy Brooks is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 30 years of experience. She focuses on helping people facing relationship strain, parenting stress, self-esteem struggles, anxiety, depression, and ADHD. Her tone is direct and encouraging; she recognizes that starting therapy can feel hard and values each person's first step.

Cindy creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through what matters most to them. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer communication.

Background and approach

She listens for patterns in behavior and thought, then works with clients to try different ways of handling problems. Her way of working blends client-centered listening with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused methods. That means clients set goals, try small changes between sessions, and notice what works.

Mindfulness exercises are offered to reduce stress and improve attention and emotional regulation. Over three decades she has helped people untangle family-of-origin issues, adjust after separation, and manage caregiver stress. She also supports people challenged by body image, eating concerns, or feelings of emptiness.

Practical coaching around motivation and organization is part of her toolbox for ADHD-related struggles. Cindy explains options clearly and helps clients choose what fits their life. She emphasizes steady progress over quick fixes and works at a pace that each person can manage.

Her practice aims to be respectful, patient, and straightforward.

Practical approaches for online therapy and ADHD concerns

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening first and following the client's lead to identify what matters most. It helps people feel heard and choose goals that fit their life. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, examines unhelpful thoughts and habits and teaches concrete skills to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and attention-related challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cindy will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to use based on their goals, daily demands, and preferences. That means trying approaches, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together so progress feels manageable.

Online formats offered include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer sessions and face-to-face conversation, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows quick check-ins, and text messaging can support brief coaching and reminders between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine and keep momentum between visits.
