About Cyndi

Cyndi Dyke BACP counsellor has 10 years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship and family issues, and OCD. Her experience also includes supporting those coping with grief, trauma, addictions and changes in life circumstances.

She uses straightforward conversations to identify patterns that cause distress. Sessions aim to notice unhelpful thoughts and try new ways of responding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy are part of her approach, and she also works in a client-centred way.

Cyndi has worked with adults, children and adolescents in direct counselling settings. She describes helping people examine beliefs and habits that hold them back and then practising realistic alternatives in day-to-day life. Where faith is important, she can integrate Christian counselling and scriptural material alongside psychological methods if requested.

Her style is practical and goal directed, while keeping the person’s own goals central. Typical work may include spotting recurring thinking patterns, building confidence for social situations, and planning steps for change. She encourages small, manageable experiments between sessions to test what works.

People seeking support are invited to consider what they want to change and to try a first session to see how approaches fit. The first meetings focus on assessment, immediate coping ideas, and agreeing next steps together.

How her approaches work in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. It helps people feel understood and clarifies goals by following the client’s lead. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and relationship worries. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasises small, achievable steps and concrete solutions to move problems in a different direction.

Working out which approach fits best is part of the early work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods together. Decisions about techniques and pace are collaborative and can be adjusted as progress is reviewed.

Please confirm the session formats available before booking because the profile does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings around work or family commitments, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find practising CBT exercises between sessions is simpler when sessions can be scheduled at times that suit daily life. Registered or accredited professionals can explain the practical options and help plan sessions that align with the client’s routine.
