Welcome to Therapy Online

You might be feeling depressed, anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or just not quite yourself. You may not know exactly what the problem is only that something needs to shift.

This is a space where you can slow down, speak honestly, and begin to understand what’s really going on – without pressure, judgment, or the need to have it all figured out.

I offer therapy for adults who want something more grounded and more real. Whether you’re navigating work stress, relationship struggles, anxiety, burnout, or a deeper sense of disconnection, I meet you where you are – and work with you to understand both what’s happening now, and what may be underlying it.

How I Work

My approach is collaborative, reflective, and rooted in the present moment. I’m trained in Psychosynthesis, a holistic form of psychotherapy that works with both the psychological and the deeper, soul-level aspects of being human. I also use EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) – a gentle, body-based method that helps release emotional blocks and shift stuck patterns.

We’ll begin with what’s showing up in your life right now — your relationships, your inner voice, your stress, your self-worth. And when it’s helpful, we’ll explore how earlier experiences might still be shaping how you respond to the world today.

Therapy doesn’t have to be overly clinical or endlessly analytical. It can be grounded, relational, and quietly transformative — helping you reconnect with clarity, self-trust, and a deeper sense of meaning.

Some lovely people I have worked with

I started working with Cynthia following a divorce which had left me feeling very deeply hurt and struggling to heal the wounds that this created and the old wounds it had re-opened from my past. Cynthia’s approach was eclectic – picking the best methods to deal with each issue as we discovered it and needed healing – all encompassed in the structure of psychosynthesis. Essentially I think of Cynthia as a wise woman, who with knowledge, experience and instinct helped me discover the root of the hurt, however far back in my past, and most importantly then find ways for it to truly heal. I have cleared the pain from my divorce plus phobias and fears held for over 30 years feeing me up to be a happy, healthy and hopefully wiser woman too. I would recommend Cynthia to anyone who needs help to move forward in life, whatever the cause of the pain, she can help you find a way through the fog to a sunny day again. S.R.

I help people who feel stuck in painful patterns,

whether from trauma, relationship struggles,

or long-standing depression to find a way back to themselves.

My sessions with Cynthia have been of great help to me. She is a very accepting and understanding counsellor and has helped me work through and understand a number of issues. EFT in particular has been very effective (despite my initial scepticism) in helping lessen the emotional heaviness of an problem – somehow it seems to lighten the charge the experience has and this has helped me move through whatever was causing the problem or upset. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a new approach to working through emotional blocks, fears etc. I have found it very helpful and effective. T.S.

I received some sessions of EFT from Cynthia Rao as I was feeling very anxious. Cynthia was very professional and intuitive. She knew her stuff and guided me through the elements of EFT. I had previously suffered from headaches on a daily basis in which I need to take tablets for, after a session of EFT with Cynthia I found that my headaches had subsided and I have not taken any tablets since. With EFT I have found a way I can work with my feelings of anxiety and feel much more optimistic about the future. I want to thank Cynthia very much and I will certainly seek her counselling services again. M.P.

It did take me a long time to find someone who I felt I could trust but when I did it made the world of difference. It gave me a sense of what I had missed with my own parents who were not able to give me the emotional support I needed. I discovered what boundaries meant and that I had them and so did others!! Counselling for me has been life changing! B.D.
