About Cybele

Cybele Blood is an LCSW who focuses on practical support for people navigating stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and major life changes. She aims to make clients feel heard and respected in sessions. Her voice is straightforward and warm, and she emphasizes building coping skills that work in everyday life.

She brings 14 years of clinical experience and an earlier background in massage therapy, which informs a whole-person view of wellbeing.

Background and approach

Cybele values respect for diversity and social justice and makes that part of how she meets people in session. She uses evidence-based methods to help clients strengthen coping strategies and make clear plans for change. Her work often centers on grief and bereavement, including traumatic loss, and she also helps with compassion fatigue and stress related to demanding jobs.

Other concerns she addresses include relationships, intimacy-related issues, addictions, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD, eating and sleeping problems, self-esteem, career stress, and LGBTQ matters. Cybele has training in several therapeutic models, such as Trauma-Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Somatic Therapy, the Gottman Method, and Existential Therapy. In practice she blends tools from different approaches to match a person’s needs.

Sessions focus on building skills, improving communication, and developing concrete steps to move forward. She practices from Utah and offers services in English. Cybele describes online work as an effective option and is open to working with clients across borders when arrangements are appropriate.

Therapeutic approaches and remote care that adapt to your life

Existential Therapy encourages people to name what matters most and to face life’s big questions. It can help when someone feels stuck, uncertain, or lost after a major change. The Gottman Method focuses on practical skills for improving communication and managing conflict in close relationships. It gives concrete tools for listening, repair, and rebuilding connection. Somatic Therapy pays attention to bodily sensations and how stress or trauma shows up physically, using mindful awareness and movement to relieve held tension.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with you about your needs, goals, and preferences, then try methods that fit. If one way isn’t helping, adjustments are made so work stays useful and relevant to your life.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options allow people to fit sessions around work, caregiving, or distance from Utah. Many find the range of formats makes it easier to keep consistent progress and to use therapy in ways that match daily life.

Existential Therapy

Takes the larger questions seriously: meaning, choice, mortality, responsibility. Suited to periods when the difficulty is less a symptom than a sense that something has to change.

Gottman Method

A research-based framework for couples, focused on how partners argue, repair, and stay connected. Practical and structured, with exercises to try between sessions.

Somatic Therapy

Works with what the body is doing - tension, breath, restlessness - as much as with what you say about it. Guided attention to physical sensation can be done from your own space.
