Cynthia E. Stewart, LPC, LPCC

Hello, Life is about moving forward and growing. As individuals we should continue to grow and never stop learning.

I work with individuals of all ages including families and couples in need. I work successfully with a wide range of concerns including, Motivation, Lifestyle changes, ADHD, Anxiety, Depression as well as the many other life struggles that need professional and confidential attention (assistance).

I am very familiar with drug and alcohol addictions, and feel that I can be of help in this area. As well I work with the LGBT population and am an active proponent for their lifestyle and struggles.

I am a member of the Kentucky Counseling Association and American Psychological Association.

I joined a private practice in Northern Kentucky that I have been with for the last eight years after working several years with a State agency. I have a Masters degree in Professional Counseling and I am presently earning a PhD in General Psychology.

A bit more about myself;

My counseling style is based on The Carl Roger's idea of unconditional positive regard. In simple terms; for a person to grow they need an environment of genuine openness and self-disclosure with total and unconditional acceptance. Therefore with full empathy I will inquire and interact respectfully to fully understand your specific situation.

When appropriate I also use ideas based on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) which include: Mindfulness, Distress Tolerance, Interpersonal Effectiveness and Emotional Regulation.

I am very eclectic and interactive with my clients. My counseling is based in The Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) model. To make life changes or improve our situational well being we must likewise change our mental thought process. I can help you understand this process.

I am here to help you; with your goals challenges or struggles.

Thank you for looking at my profile and good Karma to You.
