When you're constantly overthinking, second-guessing yourself, or carrying the weight of everyone else's expectations, it's easy to lose sight of who you are. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, ADHD, depression, relationship challenges, or questions about your identity, therapy can help you break free from the patterns that keep you feeling stuck. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, build confidence, and develop practical tools so you can feel more grounded, more connected, and more in control of your life.
We can move forward, overcome, learn and grow, seeking peace, balance, happiness. I was a NYS Certified School Psychologist for 16 years, and have 7 years of combined supervised and licensed experience as a Mental Health Counselor. I have several degrees in addition to Mental Health Counseling which broadens my perspectives and experience. I was a Training Consultant for Dale Carnegie Training. I also have a Jack Nash Honors MBA, working in foreign exchange capital markets for several years. Counseling however is my calling, my purpose.
As your mental health provider here's what I want you to know about me:
- I listen first
- I believe in collaboration
- I treat the whole person
- Medication is a tool, not a requirement.
- There is no shame in seeking help.
- Progress is possible.
I have 20 years experience and a compassionate heart. I am ready to walk beside you on your healing journey. Experienced treating veterans. I am honored to serve America's heroes! Individual therapy for adults only.
I’m Theo Bizimana, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Daystar University in Nairobi, Kenya, and an Advanced Certificate in Mental Health Counseling from the University at Buffalo. I bring more than 17 years of experience supporting individuals and communities, including over 11 years of work focused on community trauma in East Africa and 6 years of clinical experience in the United States.
I want you to know that when you come into therapy with me, you don’t have to pretend, minimize, or hold everything together. You get to show up exactly as you are — overwhelmed, hopeful, exhausted, confused, motivated, or anything in between. We take it from there together.
My favorite part of this work has always been sitting with people one‐on‐one. That’s where real connection and real healing happen. I genuinely enjoy getting to know who you are, what you’ve been carrying, and what you’re hoping might feel different.
My style is warm, steady, and honest. I listen closely, ask thoughtful questions, and help you understand the experiences and patterns that are shaping your life. I’m also practical — I like to offer tools and strategies you can actually use in your day‐to‐day life, not just in the therapy room.
I work with people dealing with anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, major transitions, and substance use concerns. But most importantly, I work with people who feel stuck or weighed down and aren’t sure how to move forward. Everyone deserves a space where they can breathe and be supported.
Something I tell clients often is this: I don’t want you to just feel better — I want you to be well. Feeling better can be temporary. Being well means building insight, healing, and lasting change.
My goal is simple: to help you feel safe, understood, and supported as you find your footing and move toward what’s healthier and more meaningful for you.
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming—especially if you’ve been living with anxiety, depression, trauma, or other psychiatric conditions that affect your daily life and relationships. You don’t have to navigate this alone. I am an LCSW, with experience working in inpatient and outpatient psychiatric settings, where I have supported individuals during some of the most vulnerable and complex moments of their lives. This background has given me a deep understanding of mental health conditions, crisis stabilization, emotional regulation, and the impact that untreated trauma can have on a person’s life.
My path into mental health has been shaped by a genuine commitment to helping others navigate life's challenges. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I have experience working with diverse populations across various settings, supporting individuals through periods of emotional distress, major life transitions, relationship difficulties, self-esteem concerns, trauma, interpersonal challenges, etc.
Hi, I'm Cynthia! I became a therapist because I believe every person carries strengths they haven't fully met yet. With 10 years of experience, I work with adults navigating trauma, depression, anxiety, and pressures of everyday life. My goal isn't just to help you cope; it's to help you feel genuinely clearer, stronger, and more at home in yourself. I create a space where safety comes first and your story is heard without judgement. If you're ready to take the next step, I'd love to work with you.

Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Binghamton
Searching for therapists in Binghamton starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or major life changes. As you compare Binghamton therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and therapy approach match your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand what they focus on, how they describe their style, and what a first session may look like.
In a smaller city like Binghamton, local in-person options may be more limited than in larger parts of New York. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still letting you choose a therapist licensed in New York. When narrowing your options, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and the concerns each therapist works with most often.
Therapy in Binghamton can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences and show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, so you can review bios, compare availability, and schedule directly when you’re ready.
