I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with training in both medication management and psychotherapy. My goal is to create a space where clients feel heard, respected, and supported without judgment. I have experience treating concerns such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, mood disorders, and substance use. I believe care should feel collaborative, practical, and focused on helping you feel more stable and confident in your daily life.
I listen. I hear you. I am interested in the reason you have come to a therapist. I believe that therapy can improve lives and relationships by fixing real problems. I have worked with a lot of clients over the years. I feel assured that my experience will benefit you.
I am a licensed mental health therapist with a background in social work. I have a master's in clinical social work from the University of Wisconsin, Green Bay. I have experience working in outpatient therapy and medical settings, which has shaped my grounded and integrative approach to care. I work with adults and children navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, professional stress, grief, and patterns that feel difficult to shift. I also support individuals experiencing self-doubt, boundary concerns, emotional overwhelm, and relational dynamics that leave them feeling unseen or unheard.
Two decades of clinical excellence.
Dr. Cindy Ruelas-Tafolla's path to becoming a clinician began at age 13 with the sudden loss of her father — an experience that planted the seed of her life's purpose: to be the kind of support she needed during her own darkest moments.
She earned her Bachelor of Arts in Law and Society from UC Santa Barbara, her Master of Social Work from the University of Southern California, and her Doctorate in Social Work (DSW) from USC.
Over two decades, she has served as a Medical Social Worker, Case Manager, and Behavioral Health Therapist — bringing doctoral-level depth, board-certified credentials, and genuine compassion to every client she works with.











Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right therapist in Cheyenne starts with identifying what kind of support you're looking for. Common reasons people seek therapy include anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, grief, and life transitions. Cheyenne providers on Headway include licensed professional counselors (LPCs), licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), psychologists, marriage and family therapists, and psychiatrists who can prescribe medication.
Beyond specialty and credentials, consider practical factors like whether you prefer in-person sessions in Cheyenne or virtual appointments, what days and times work with your schedule, and whether a provider's communication style feels like a good match. Reading a provider's bio before booking can give you a sense of their approach and areas of focus.
Therapy in Cheyenne can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay per session. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
