Founder & Therapist, Anchored Mental HealthMeet Your Provider
"Therapy should feel like a space where you can show up as you are, without pressure or judgment."
Hi, I'm Cyndi — the therapist behind Anchored Mental Health. My role is to walk alongside you as you make sense of your experiences, build insight, and move toward meaningful, lasting change.
My Approach
My work is rooted in connection, safety, and the understanding that healing happens not just through talking, but through deeper processing and awareness. I integrate relational therapy with brain-body approaches, including Brainspotting, to support individuals in working through trauma, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm.
Together, we focus on helping you feel more regulated, more grounded, and more in control of your experiences. You don't have to force progress here — we move at a pace that feels right for you.
Outside of the Therapy Space
At Anchored Mental Health, the focus is always on you. I value authenticity, connection, and creating a space where people feel safe enough to do meaningful work.
The Office
A space to feel
steady in
In-person sessions take place in a quiet, plant-filled office in Englewood — soft seating, warm light, and small comforts throughout, so the room itself is one less thing to think about.
Areas of Focus
Support built around
where you are right now
Trauma & Complex Experiences
Processing what happened and rebuilding a felt sense of safety.
Anxiety & Emotional Regulation
Tools and insight to feel steadier in your body and mind.
Foster Care & Adoption
Navigating attachment, identity, and family transitions with care.
Parenting Support
Including guidance for parents raising neurodiverse children.
ADHD & Executive Functioning
Practical, compassionate strategies for how your mind works.
Life Transitions & Identity
Finding your footing when the ground underneath is shifting.
Professional Background
Training grounded in
real-world experience
I am a master's level social worker and Brainspotting-certified therapist with experience supporting individuals and families across a range of settings. My work is informed by both professional training and real-world understanding of complex family systems and lived experiences.
Foster Care & Adoption Systems
Direct experience supporting families through placement, attachment, and identity work.
Survivors of Trauma & Exploitation
Trauma-informed, Brainspotting-integrated care for complex and layered experiences.
Families Navigating Behavioral & Emotional Challenges
Collaborative support for the whole family system, not just the individual.
