About Cynthia
Cynthia Fradl is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Oregon with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and family concerns, and people coping with long-term mental health challenges such as bipolar disorder. She also addresses issues like addictions, sleep and eating problems, anger, career strain, and attention difficulties.
Cynthia has worked across nonprofit programs, hospital and clinical settings, and schools. That background gives her experience with a variety of life situations and presentations. In sessions she listens to a person’s history and current struggles to identify practical steps that fit daily life.
Her practice draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and mindfulness approaches. She uses these methods to help people notice patterns, shift unhelpful thinking, and build concrete skills for coping.
Cynthia aims to speak plainly about feelings and behaviors. Conversations focus on what’s happening now, what came from earlier family or attachment patterns, and what can be tried differently. She avoids stigmatizing labels and treats people with respect and sensitivity.
For someone noticing how family of origin patterns shape current relationships or work, Cynthia helps identify recurring roles and expectations and then practices new ways of responding. If you want a straightforward clinician who combines evidence-based tools with collaborative problem solving, she may be a fit.
How Cynthia’s approaches are used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and making changes rooted in family patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills for managing mood, sleep, and anxiety. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus in daily life.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Cynthia will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit someone’s needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts the mix of ACT, CBT, client-centered, EFT, and mindfulness techniques based on what helps the individual move forward in practical ways.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also allow people to practice skills in the settings where problems occur and bring real-life examples directly into conversation.
