Cynthia Robinson, LMHC

Cynthia Robinson is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Massachusetts who brings a holistic, client-centered approach to therapy. She emphasizes the importance of each personâs healing journey and regularly checks in with clients to ensure that chosen techniques feel helpful and comfortable. Trained in traditional methods as well as expressive modalities, she blends Client-Centered therapy - rooted in the work of Carl Rogers - with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people feel heard, validated, and better able to identify thinking patterns that contribute to stress or distress.

Cynthia also integrates expressive arts into her work, using drawing, painting, movement, writing, or other creative practices as tools for self-expression and discovery. She explains that expressive art is not about artistic ability but about accessing inner feelings and moving energy that the body may hold, especially around difficult memories. These methods can support concerns such as low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, motivation issues, life decisions, career choices, eating concerns, and sleep difficulties, and clients never have to share their creations unless they wish to.

In addition to expressive arts, Cynthia employs inner child work and guided visualizations as part of a broader, reinforced therapeutic plan. Her trainings include a Master of Education in Mental Health Counseling from Bridgewater State University, completed in January 2001, and a Certificate in the Facilitation of Expressive Arts from Salve Regina University earned in 2007. She obtained licensure in 2007 and holds the LMHC credential, which stands for Licensed Mental Health Counselor. With over 23 years of experience working with adults, children, and families, she draws on a range of techniques to tailor treatment to each individualâs needs.

Cynthia welcomes feedback throughout the therapeutic process and prefers to collaborate with clients to determine which combination of traditional and expressive approaches will best support growth and healing. She aims to create a respectful and validating space where people can explore their feelings, build coping strategies, and move toward greater well-being.
