About Cindy
Cindy Paillant is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Florida with 17 years of clinical experience. She meets people where they are and focuses on practical steps to reduce stress, anxiety, and feelings of overwhelm. Her tone is warm and straightforward so parents can read quickly and understand what to expect.
Cindy blends several therapy ideas to suit each person's needs. She leans on Existential ideas about meaning and choice, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) strategies to notice thoughts and values, and cognitive-behavioral techniques to change unhelpful habits.
Background and approach
Sessions tend to be conversational and goal-focused, with tools to use between meetings. Her background includes individual and group therapy, work in outpatient and residential settings, and experience with mood concerns, grief, addiction, trauma, parenting struggles, and life transitions. She also supports people facing postpartum and caregiver stress, adoption and foster care questions, and young adult challenges.
Cindy describes her style as compassionate, interactive, and respectful. She encourages clients to connect mind, body, and spirit while building concrete skills for everyday life. The work is collaborative: goals are set together and adjusted as progress is made.
People who want a therapist who combines practical strategies with deeper conversations about purpose and values often find this approach helpful. Cindy offers sessions online in several formats and can work with international clients who speak English.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Existential Therapy helps people reflect on meaning, choice, and the big questions that come up during life changes; it can be useful for those wrestling with purpose, loss, or transitions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches ways to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then take action aligned with personal values to move forward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood.Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels helpful, then try techniques together and adjust as progress is made. This collaborative process helps shape a plan that blends deeper reflection with practical tools.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is helpful for face-to-face conversation and interactive exercises. Phone sessions can be quicker to schedule and need less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging let people check in between sessions or choose a format that fits a busy day. These options make it easier to work on stress, parenting, grief, and other concerns without travel or long waits.
