Cyndi Dyke

Cyndi Dyke is a counsellor who supports people facing anxiety, depression, relationship strain and eating or body-image concerns. She works with stress, parenting difficulties, addiction and grief, and helps clients who are struggling with self-esteem, anger or life transitions. Cyndi brings ten years of practice to her work and holds BACP, which is listed among her credentials. Her approach is practical and person-focused. She starts by listening to each person’s story and looking for existing strengths to build on. Sessions can include looking at unhelpful thinking patterns, setting small goals, and trying out new behaviours between meetings. Cyndi uses elements from Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy, and she adapts her style to each person. She also offers Christian counselling when requested, integrating scripture with therapeutic conversations for those who want faith included. She aims to create a non-judgemental space and to treat people with warmth and respect. The emphasis is on gradual change - challenging stuck patterns and replacing them with healthier ways of thinking and acting. Cyndi describes her role as helping people uncover strengths they already have. Practical steps are part of the work. Cyndi helps clients set achievable goals, practise new habits and review progress. People concerned about attachment, commitment, communication or eating and food-related issues will find those topics within her stated focus areas. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. Cyndi works from the United Kingdom and offers services in English, including to international clients.

How Cyndi's approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor. It involves listening, reflecting and helping people name their own goals. This approach suits people who need a supportive space to talk and to be heard. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour, which can help with anxiety, low mood and eating-related patterns. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on what works now and builds on small successes. It is goal-directed and helpful for people who want clear steps and faster, practical change. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and life circumstances, and then recommend ways of working that suit each person. Decisions about which methods to use are made collaboratively and can change over time. Session delivery details are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current online session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and travel, and they can allow shorter check-ins or sessions without video when that suits a person's needs. Registered or accredited professionals often offer online help that mirrors in-person care, while adapting exercises and homework to an online setting.
