About Cyndi

Cyndi Dyke is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress, anxiety and panic-related problems. She helps with relationship strain, low self-esteem, life changes and addictions. Her work also covers grief, trauma, sleep and eating difficulties, and challenges around parenting and career pressure.

She uses a person-focused style that starts by listening to what matters most to the individual. Cyndi draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy to shape practical steps you can try between sessions. She aims to identify unhelpful thinking and small changes that make daily life easier.

Her background includes ten years of professional experience, working directly with adults, children and adolescents on a range of concerns. She also offers Christian counselling for people who want to include faith and scripture in their conversations. Cyndi holds BACP, which is noted here as part of her professional details.

In sessions she focuses on building on strengths people already have. The pace is adjustable - some people prefer structured work on thoughts and behaviours, others favour open listening and reflection. She encourages simple, practical tools for managing panic and anxiety as well as longer-term patterns like attachment or control issues.

People considering therapy are invited to take a first step by completing a short questionnaire and arranging a time to meet. Cyndi aims to work collaboratively to set goals and review progress as therapy continues.

How these approaches can work online and in conversation

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. Online work using CBT often involves identifying small thought patterns to test and changing behaviours that maintain anxiety or panic. It can help with sleep, panic attacks and unhelpful avoidance.

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor offers empathic listening and reflection so people can make sense of their feelings and find their own solutions. This approach suits those who want a gentle, supportive space to talk things through.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical next steps and on what is already working. Sessions look for small, achievable changes and build from successes rather than focusing only on problems. This can be useful when immediate coping strategies are needed.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then try methods that fit the person’s needs. That way the plan can change as progress is made.

The original profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm which online options are offered before booking. Many people find remote sessions help them fit therapy into busy lives, for example by making it easier to attend between work or childcare, reducing travel time, or allowing shorter check-ins when needed.
