Cindy Burnett, LPC - Therapist in South Carolina

About Cindy

Cindy Burnett is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in South Carolina who focuses on family and parenting concerns along with relationship and mood issues. She brings 30 years of counseling experience to sessions. Cindy aims to be a steady, compassionate presence for parents and families navigating stress, life changes, or relationship strain.

Her way of working is straightforward and personal: she listens, offers perspective, and helps clients try practical steps that fit their lives.

Background and approach

Cindy draws on several common therapy approaches to guide sessions. She uses client-centered techniques to follow each person’s pace and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

Mindfulness practices are offered to reduce reactivity and increase calm. Solution-focused ideas support quick, goal-oriented steps when families need immediate relief. Her background includes years spent in schools and community mental health settings.

Cindy has experience supporting adolescents, young adults, and families, and has worked with people facing ADHD, depression, anxiety, trauma, anger, and personality concerns. She also has experience with adoption and foster care, blended family matters, and fatherhood issues. Cindy earned counseling degrees from Clemson University and holds the LPC credential, SC LPC 3661.

She frames therapy as a collaborative process aimed at improving relationships and daily functioning. Parents and family members who want practical, empathetic help will find a direct, steady approach in her work. To start, she asks prospective clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and online options for families

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following each person's pace. It helps parents and family members feel heard and decide what changes matter most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and the actions that follow, which can reduce worry, anger, and mood symptoms when practiced between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist partners with each client to choose methods that match goals, needs, and comfort level. Together they try techniques, adjust what does not fit, and emphasize what leads to small, useful changes at home.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. These options let parents schedule brief check-ins, attend from home, or use messaging for quick support between meetings. The range of formats makes it easier to balance school, work, and family life while working on relationship and parenting goals.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
