For North Carolina residents my Professional Discloser Statement is included below:
PROFESSIONAL DISCLOSER STATEMENT
My name is Cindy Edwards, LMHC, NCC. I have a Master of Art Degree in Clinical Psychology
that I received from American International College in May of 1993. I am a Licensed Mental
Health Counselor/Qualified Supervisor in Florida. My license number is MH8582. I am a
National Certified Counselor and my certification number is 304925. I am a Licensed Clinical
Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina. My license number is 15778.
I have twenty years of experience as a mental health counselor and have experience diagnosing
and treating clients of all ages with diagnosis which include depression, anxiety, substance
abuse and post-traumatic stress disorder. I use a Humanistic approach to treatment and focus
on cognitive behavioral, dialectical and motivational interviewing and the stages of change
techniques. I believe in teaching a balanced life approach to wellness. Sessions are an hour
long. I discuss mental health and substance
abuse symptoms and diagnosis with clients and we agree on a diagnosis before I document
one. Proper documentation can assist medication providers with prescribing what is most
beneficial for you. What you say is confidential unless you state you plan to hurt yourself or
others or involved with child or elder abuse; a subpoena is not a court order.
If you are unhappy with my services, please speak to me directly and give me the opportunity
to resolve the problem.

Cindy is a great therapist. From the very first session she was spot on with solutions to my issues and has been moving me in the right direction ever since. She is a great listener, compassionate, understanding and very good at what she does. I highly recommend.

I always hate breaking a therapist in, but with Cindy I don’t feel like I’ve had to. We don’t spend months delving into my childhood. We talk about present and future issues and practical ways to deal with that.
