Cyndi Dyke, BACP

Cyndi Dyke is a therapist based in Hertfordshire, United Kingdom, with ten years of professional experience supporting adults, children, and adolescents through a wide range of mental health challenges. She draws on a broad clinical background to offer individual psychological care for difficulties such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship and family problems, obsessive-compulsive concerns, and life transitions. Cyndi emphasises a collaborative, strengths-based approach that recognises each person as the expert in their own story and focuses on uncovering existing resources to manage current challenges.

Her practice prioritises compassion, respect, and warmth while helping clients explore and reshape unhelpful beliefs, patterns, and behaviours so they can pursue healthier ways of thinking and living. Cyndi integrates evidence-informed methods including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Client-Centred techniques, and Solution-Focused work to tailor interventions to individual needs. She also offers Christian counselling when requested, combining faith perspectives and psychological principles for those who wish to include scripture in their therapeutic process.

Cyndi holds BACP membership - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and uses a person-focused style that aims to meet clients where they are, addressing the connections between mind, body, spirit, and community to support sustainable change and renewed wellbeing.

Approach-focused online therapy with practical options

Cyndi uses Client-Centred Therapy to create a supportive environment where clients are listened to without judgement and encouraged to explore their thoughts and feelings at their own pace - this approach is helpful for building self-esteem, processing grief, and navigating relationship or life changes. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to identify and test unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, offering practical strategies for anxiety, low mood, compulsive patterns, and stress management. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to set clear goals and develop short-term, action-oriented steps that can be effective for people seeking focused change on specific issues such as coping skills or relationship problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Cyndi works collaboratively with clients to tailor methods to individual needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review what helps and adjust the plan as progress unfolds so the work remains relevant and practical.

Online therapy with Cyndi is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving flexibility to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make therapy more accessible for those balancing work, family, or geographic constraints while preserving the opportunity for meaningful, ongoing therapeutic work with a registered professional.
