I'm Veronica Caudillo, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Henderson, Nevada. I work primarily with adult and adolescent women navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and major life transitions.

I earned my graduate training in marriage and family therapy and have built my practice around creating a space where women feel genuinely heard and understood. Many of the clients I see arrive feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply not like themselves, and my role is to help them find their footing again.

I draw on evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and I accept insurance through Headway so that cost is one less barrier to getting support.

I have always had a deeply empathetic nature, a curious spirit, and a lifelong desire to help others.

Hello and welcome! Taking the first step toward therapy can feel difficult, and I want to acknowledge the courage it can take to reach out. My name is Cynthia, though I go by Cyndra, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who primarily works with individuals.

My path to becoming a therapist was shaped by my own unexpected life transition. In 2010, I experienced a traumatic brain injury (TBI) that dramatically changed the course of my life. During my recovery, I gained a deeper understanding of how challenging major life transitions can be and how important it is to have support while navigating uncertainty, loss, and change. I also became fascinated by how the brain works, how our experiences shape us, and our capacity to heal and adapt. That journey ultimately led me into the mental health field in 2012.

Since then, I have had the privilege of supporting individuals as they navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and other challenges that can leave us feeling overwhelmed or disconnected from ourselves.

I’m a licensed therapist in San Francisco with over 15 years in private practice. I specialize in Eating disorders, body image and trauma and work primarily with adults who are exhausted by the cycle of restriction, compulsive eating, shame and self criticism and are ready for something to genuinely shift. My training includes, IFS, Somatic therapy, EMDR, CBT and Expressive Arts therapy, which means we will not only engage in supportive talk therapy, but also have real tools to work. My clients often express that not only do they heal and find peace with food, disordered eating and body image, but they also become more able to feel and tolerate emotions and regulate moods, while building trust in their bodies and discover true hungers, desires and enhance creativity and vitality. This can lead to more ease and comfort in your own skin, with the potential of more meaningful work and healthy relationships.

We are not meant to carry the entirety of life’s weight alone! I believe that mental health should be very much prioritized to reach true contentment. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a passion for healing and growth. In therapy, we will collaborate on developing the best coping skills for your symptoms and concerns. We will navigate through emotions and work to maintain balance. I aim to provide supportive comfort, as well as challenge, in order to strive for the greatest version of yourself.

Seeking support is a brave and meaningful step, and I want to honor the courage it takes to be here. Grounded in trauma-informed care and the healing power of connection, I walk alongside clients with warmth and curiosity as they rediscover safety, resilience, and a stronger sense of self.

My path to becoming a therapist was shaped by both personal and professional experiences that deepened my understanding of trauma, resilience, and the importance of meaningful support. I’ve worked with diverse populations in various settings where my focus was on supporting healing through a trauma-informed lens. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master of Social Work degree from Baylor University, where I completed the clinical track and earned a certificate in trauma-informed care.
