About Cynthia Benge MSW

A therapist for over 20 years, I guide people from their own “stuck” places to a life full of adventure, meaning and satisfying relationships. I worked my way to become a masters level graduate of the University of Washington School of Social Work. As a result, I’ve served hundreds of clients from a broad spectrum of socio-economic, cultural, sexual and faith orientations. Through years of training and experience, I bring a deep understanding of: The adult and childhood developmental process, The complexity of couple dynamics And communication, conflict resolution and parenting strategies for families. My clients and colleagues tell me I bring a genuine concern and empathy into all my encounters. They tell me I offer a safe and nurturing space to grow and experiment with the change process. My goal is to help clients find both the meaning for their behaviors as well as a clear understanding of what’s holding them back, always encouraging them to find the “gift of growth” in every situation. I use a process known as Emotion Focused Therapy, which is a proven scientifically based approach that utilizes your feelings as a key to uncover your “real truth”- your greatest needs, longings and dreams. And once we activate that authentic “feeling place” we uncover your “real story”. We find what is keeping you “stuck” and then we can find answers that make sense to you. And when that happens you are free to develop an action plan that can move you forward to be your best self- for the rest of your life!
