Cynthia Hickman

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Sanford, NC


Are you feeling stressed, overwhelmed with life, exhausted, anxious, or depressed? Have you experienced a stressful or traumatic life event? Perhaps you struggle with a chronic illness. Maybe you struggle with a difficult child or teen. Or maybe your partner has been unfaithful. Are you tired of feeling isolated and hopeless? You want- no, you need- things to change, but you don’t where to begin. Asking for help can be one of the most difficulty things to do, but I would be honored to help you discover your inner strength and begin your journey to healing and being who you are meant to be.


I have received training in Interpersonal and Social Rhythm Therapy (IPSRT) for managing bipolar disorders as well as certification as a clinical trauma professional. A nationally certified counselor, I am also a member of LPC Association of NC and the International Association of Trauma Professionals (IATP).


I am passionate about helping people triumph over trauma, learn mindfulness-based practices to reduce stress and manage anxiety, improve self-esteem, understand the relationship among our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors (CBT) and learn to tolerate distress in their lives.

Happy patient looking away

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 Goldsboro

Finding the right therapist in Goldsboro starts with identifying what kind of support you're looking for. Whether you're seeking help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, trauma, or another challenge, look for a licensed provider who has experience in that area. In North Carolina, common license types include LCMHC, LCSW, LMFT, and psychologists — and psychiatrists are available if medication management is part of your care.

Goldsboro is a smaller metro area, so expanding your search to include virtual sessions can give you access to a wider range of providers across North Carolina. Consider what matters most to you — a provider's specialty, approach, availability, or whether they offer in-person or virtual visits. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their style and decide if they're a good match.

Therapy in North Carolina can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider in Goldsboro who fits your needs and your budget.
