About

Stop hurting.

Sometimes, we hurt so much and for so long that we forget how true happiness feels like. We all try to navigate life the best that we can. We all try to find that glimpse of hope every morning. Yet, sometimes it just feels impossible to know exactly what we are holding on to.

I first started sessions with Cindy when issues relating to past trauma started to spiral out of control and deeply affect my life. This was my first time going to any kind of therapy, and I was pretty apprehensive about the whole thing. It only took a few sessions for those misconceptions and fears to fade away. Cindy is extremely professional, in addition to being an incredibly patient listener. She is constantly taking notes and is always prepared for the next session. It's clear that she works and thinks about her clients A LOT outside of the one on one time. I think that shows the most during the moments when we just chat without focusing on a particular goal or path. It's those moments where I really feel like I am in a safe space with someone who understands me. I have a fairly unconventional work schedule, but she has always found a way to ensure we have regular sessions. I cannot recommend Cindy enough, she is an amazing mental health professional.

When I went to my first day of therapy I thought I was going to sit a cry about all my problems, the opposite happened. Cindy knew exactly what I needed and we always just ended up laughing about how pathetic or ridiculous problems, people, and life can be. She helped me step-by-step over come so many things and I knew she truly cared. I know have the roles to deal when those same hard situations come up and I know how to set boundaries. I got my optimistic personality back with her help. I would recommend her to anyone! More...

I love Cindy so much!! She helps me not to feel so much shame about if I'm a good mom, wife, or friend. She really gets me thinking about why I feel the way I do, and she helps me through it by giving me suggestions on what to do. I highly recommend her!

Cindy was so helpful for me in guiding me to work toward the goal I had for therapy. I had never been to therapy before and she was really kind to me and that just made everything easy. She helped me learn some new tools that I know I'll use in the future. Its very comforting to me that if I face challenges in the future I can confidently return for help again. More...

I’ve been seeing Cindy for about a year. I’ve had a lot of therapists over the years, but I’ve never been able to stay with one this long. She really makes you feel like she cares about you and what you’re going through and genuinely wants to help. On my worst days when I go in all a mess and what not, there’s never any judgment or anything like that. Cindy is genuinely a good, nice person, who wants to help. I would recommend her to anyone who is struggling or just feels they need therapy in their life. More...

I found Cindy when I moved to SLC and I tell people about her all the time. She is super insightful and hones in really quickly on who you are and what you're dealing with. I've really appreciated her ability to find me where I was and help me navigate challenges feeling empowered, focused, and effective. In my time working with her I've experienced a meaningful shift towards a happier self, and she was such a large part of that. I really can't thank you enough for seeing me through it and helping me trust myself again. Thank you :) More...

I began searching for a new therapist when I stumbled upon Cindy’s website. I was hurting and her write-up began with the words, “Stop hurting”. Besides being so caring, I found Cindy to really listen to me. We began working on some tough areas in my life which has been amazingly rewarding. She definitely excels in effective and positive communications in our sessions so I feel empowered when I walk out the door. I am looking forward to continuing my journey towards having more peace in my life with Cindy’s help. More...

She is patient and thoughtful in her treatment plans and is really on board with making sure you are getting the best experience for your needs.

I've been seeing Cindy for a few months now. Before I made my first appointment with her, I researched many other therapists in the area for a couple years before deciding to go with Cindy. So far, I've been pleased with our sessions, and I feel like I've made progress as well as improved my understanding of my relationships with people, family, and work.

I had the pleasure and privilege of working with Cindy at the University of Central Oklahoma where we were both getting our Masters in Counseling Psychology. Cindy and I had many classes together where we had the opportunity to practice our skills. Working with Cindy, especially in our Group class, I was able to learn and collaborate on a social anxiety group with the students at UCO. It was an excellent experience that I truly enjoyed and I was impressed with Cindy's skills as a co-facilitator. I also had the opportunity to observe Cindy as she practiced her skills working with individuals and children. I recommend Cindy as a clinician to anyone in need and I believe in her abilities as a counselor. Not only that, but I'm glad to call her my friend and peer. More...

I've seen several therapists in the past and Cindy Hernandez has been the first that I have continued to talk to for longer-form treatment. She creates a comfortable and open atmosphere and always listens intently to the conversation-- guiding it in a way that helps you discover the insights you need and may have known all along. My favorite thing though is her ability to recall the previous conversations and build from them. It's obvious that she thinks of her patients outside of sessions and comes prepared with the right suggestions to help me achieve my goals. I'm excited to continue working with her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a therapist with a very casual approach and treats you as an intelligent equal in anything you do! More...

It's an overwhelming and frustrating task to find mental health help when there are so many hoops to jump through! For me, I didn't have any referrals but I knew I needed some help. After going through the Utah Pyschological bank of providers, I came across Cindy. Her website drew me into feeling understood and validated unlike a lot of providers I searched for and offices I called. It was something I had been searching for: someone who completely understood how tough life can be and that we all need and deserve help to achieve mental wellness.Working with Cindy for a couple of months now, I can already feel a difference. She utilizes practical tips to manage negative emotions while trying to understand a person as whole. She just gets it! I can tell how much she cares and how much she wants to help, so I 100% recommend her to anyone wanting a compassionate and truly helpful provider. Plus, I recommend therapy/counseling for EVERYONE, even if someone feels completely content in their mental wellness! It's one of the most important tools out there for going through life!Things will never be perfect or completely optimal, but the important part is making progress. With Cindy, I feel that I am making that progress already, even after a short time! It's a big weight off my shoulders to know I am getting great professional help that will allow me to get where I want to be! More...

I brought my 10 year old son to see Cindy for some psychological testing and evaluations and I immediately knew that we were in the right hands. She was so welcoming from the minute she introduced herself to us and my son immediately felt comfortable and relaxed. Cindy asked many questions and took into consideration the needs of our family. Her interpretation and data analysis of the results of the testing were made available to us in a timely manner, and she spent time with us to explain the details and answer any questions that we had. I would definitely return to Cindy for any type of therapy, evaluations, or counseling. Thank you Cindy! More...
