Cindy Speakman, LCSW California BBS #66060
I am a psychotherapist who believes healing begins with being truly seen, heard, and understood. I work with adults navigating life’s most complex emotional experiences—including grief and loss, empowering them to move forward in a more healthy, happy and peaceful direction in the journey of life.
Along with earning my Certified Grief Educator Certification, I am also a Certified Bereavement Counselor and a trained facilitator in the Healing After Loss grief support program. I offer both individual and group grief therapy, honoring each client’s unique grieving process with empathy, understanding and acceptance. Grief is a universal experience, but is not well understood or accepted in our society. I strive to help those experiencing grief and loss to feel understood and accepted, wherever they are in their journey.
My approach is compassionate, strengths-based, and often infused with gentle humor. Clients described me as kind, empathetic, a great listener—and someone who genuinely cares.
I believe that therapy doesn’t end when the session does. I often invite clients to explore reflections or practices between sessions to deepen their insight and progress. I am truly honored to support you in creating a more grounded, fulfilling life—one step at a time.
You’re not broken—just bent. Let’s find a way forward.
