Do you want life changing results? When you make the decision for change, finding a professional with the right amount of expertise matters. As a Board Certified Clinical and Licensed Psychologist, and former U.S. Navy Operational Psychologist, I am uniquely qualified to help guide you. Check me out on TikTok and Instagram at dr.justindarienzo if you would like to know more about me and my approach.  

Cindy Yu is a bilingual (English and Mandarin Chinese) Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the states of both Florida and Alabama. She is well-trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy, solution-focused therapy, Bowen’s theory, Gottman Method, CBT, and more. Cindy believes that each client is comprised of unique yet charismatic components such as personal upbringings, religious beliefs, and cultural backgrounds, that all contribute to narrate a cohesive personal story. This fundamental ideology has cultivated her into offering her clients unconditional positive regard and respect, while tailoring her treatment orientations to better serve each client’s individuality. Her passion is to help individuals, couples, and families to understand the misunderstood, to discover hope from the hopelessness, to speak the unspoken, and to seek possibilities through the impossible. Cindy also has a background in the medical field where she has obtained a strong foundational knowledge for medical diagnosis and medications. She understands the intricacy between medical burden and mental health.  

Two of my deepest held beliefs that I get to live out in my work as a therapist is my belief in the inherent worth of each person and the unlimited potential that lies within all of us. Counseling with me is a shame free space. I thrive in being able to create safety in sharing, connection in being well understood, and assistance in helping people more fully express their experiences in life. I'll help you disentangle yourself from fear, pain, and confusion and to emerge into a peaceful and connected life that you love.

My therapeutic approach is eclectic; I utilize the theory and tools of multiple different models to customize your treatment. I will individualize my work with you in order to meet your specific goals and honor your unique experience. I will rely on your feedback to guide our time together. My intention is for you to finish each session with confidence that the time was well spent. In therapy, we will evaluate your life values and create goals, so that you can live life well, even in the presence of challenges. I will integrate psychodynamic (insight-oriented) and behavioral (skills-based) theories to offer you a comprehensive approach to health.
