Transformation through
radical compassion

Cindy Warden, LCSW, LCDC

I’m here to hold space for you and your life experiences through compassion and connection. My approach to counseling is fluid and will be based on what you need in this moment; but everything I do will always be through a lens of Trauma Informed Care. I’ll be with you every step of the way through your journey. Everyone deserves healing. Finding your true self is possible.
