Cynthia Roe

For over 30 years, I have had the privilege of serving clients from diverse backgrounds, genders, ethnicities, ages and stages, religious and spiritual backgrounds and other forms of diversity that I can’t think of right now! I just really have a passion for my fellow human beings, in all our presentations! I come to this work with lived experience, expertise and training in the study and treatment of mental health conditions.

My mission as a therapist, is to gently guide my clients back to the parts of themselves they have forgotten, hidden, or masked to survive and make sense of what has happened in their lives. To me, therapy is simply a deeper conversation between two people (or between and amongst the therapist and group members). Therapy can help clients to see, own, embrace, love and (when needed) transform those lost or buried parts of themselves as they move toward a more fulfilling life.

I approach my work with an attitude of openness and acceptance, without judgement and with the belief that we all have it within us to recover and heal. I tailor my treatment plans to the individual, focusing on the goals my clients identify and utilizing treatment approaches that are appropriate to each unique situation. I am gentle, but direct and honest. I encourage and guide clients to access their strengths and find grace and forgiveness for their challenges.
