Cynia Black, LCSW

Cynia Black is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in North Carolina with seven years of clinical experience. She works with people facing family stress, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, depression, anxiety, and related concerns. Cynia is experienced in supporting those managing ADHD, compassion fatigue, and life transitions.

She began her clinical work in intensive in-home and outpatient settings. Much of her early practice was as a Family Consultant with young children and as a Family Therapist with adolescents and their caregivers. That background shaped how she sees family dynamics and transitions between childhood and adulthood.

Cynia focuses on practical skills and clear goals in sessions. She helps people develop coping strategies, improve communication, and manage anger or impulsive reactions. She also supports people working through guilt, shame, and relationship problems like infidelity or jealousy.

Sessions tend to be straightforward and action-oriented. Cynia uses tools drawn from cognitive behavioral work, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused methods to create concrete steps people can try between meetings. Trauma-focused approaches are used when people need to process past harms.

Her style is direct and problem-solving. She draws on experience with blended families, caregiver stress, domestic violence histories, intellectual disability concerns, and obsessive-compulsive patterns. Cynia offers care in English and practices in North Carolina.
