Cynthia Fulton-Solomon

Her style blends clear guidance with empathy and occasional humor. She trained at Southern University of New Orleans, earning a master’s degree with a concentration in children, youth, and families. Cynthia has worked across settings and age groups, including schools and the juvenile justice system.

At times she uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts and actions interact, to change unhelpful patterns. She also draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change. Client-centered therapy is another thread in her work, keeping the session focused on each family’s priorities.

Cynthia has experience addressing depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use, and behavioral concerns in youth and adults. She has helped students with social and coping skills and supported families dealing with homelessness, medical issues, and complex life transitions. These experiences inform practical steps she suggests for home and school.

Parents can expect straightforward goal-setting and problem-solving. Cynthia often pairs individual conversations with skills practice that can be used between sessions. She welcomes hearing families’ stories and working with them to identify realistic next steps.
