About Cindy
Cindy Llora is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, addiction, and life changes. She practices in Arizona and brings 14 years of experience working with trauma, mood concerns, and family conflict. Cindy aims to create a calm, straightforward space where people can talk through what feels most urgent to them.
Her approach mixes attachment-based ideas with practical therapies.
Background and approach
She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice what matters to them and build small, doable changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques are used to reduce distressing thoughts and strengthen coping skills. Cindy describes therapy as a collaborative process.
Sessions often focus on understanding how early relationships shape current patterns and on building healthier ways to connect and regulate emotions. She brings a client-centered stance, listening first and adapting methods to each person's needs. In sessions she may use mindfulness exercises, values-based goal setting, and skill practice for emotion regulation.
For people working through addiction, grief, or trauma, she can integrate narrative tools and creative elements like song lyric work when it fits the person’s goals. She holds a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology and is licensed as an LMFT in Arizona and California. Cindy offers video, phone, live chat, and text-based sessions for clients in Arizona.

Online support
Using Attachment-informed and Practical Therapies Online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships and emotional reactions. It helps people notice patterns that repeat in adult relationships and practice new ways of connecting and trusting. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches people to identify personal values and take small actions that align with those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps by breaking down unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. These approaches can be combined in sessions to address trauma, addiction recovery, grief, relationship struggles, and stress-related problems in a practical way.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, comfort level, and pace. That may mean trying an emotion-regulation skill one week and a values-based exercise the next, then adjusting as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people maintain face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier on busy days, and messaging or live chat can support quick check-ins or between-session work. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, handle caregiving logistics, or keep momentum between visits.
