About Me

Hi! I’m Cynthia. I’m a mom of three, therapist, and owner of Cynthia Castillo LCSW. As someone who has experienced the ups and downs of motherhood and life transitions firsthand, I understand the balancing act of joy, stress, and striving for growth. I aim to create a space where you feel truly seen, supported, and challenged to achieve your goals while being met with compassion and authenticity.

My journey into the helping profession started early—I’ve always been attuned to others’ emotions and felt called to support those in need. Over the years, I’ve developed an eclectic approach, integrating evidence-based modalities like CBT and EMDR, while tailoring my care to each client’s unique needs.

I specialize in working with individuals navigating perinatal mental health challenges, life transitions, anxiety, depression, and PTSD. My approach is collaborative, creating a safe and compassionate space for you to process emotions, gain insights, and develop tools for lasting growth and healing.

As a Latina therapist, I’m deeply committed to providing culturally responsive care and supporting BIPOC clients in their unique journeys. Whether you’re facing the joys and complexities of motherhood or seeking balance in other areas of life, I’m here to walk alongside you with understanding and care.

Let’s work together to help you thrive.
