About Cynthia
Dr. Cynthia Yamokoski is an Ohio psychologist with 15 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and related concerns. She also addresses substance use, sleep and eating problems, ADHD, anger, self-esteem, career questions, and intimacy-related issues.
Her approach is structured and time-focused. She explains treatment options clearly and makes decisions together with each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and trauma-focused methods guide her work when those approaches fit the concern.
In sessions she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and patterns. She uses specific, evidence-based techniques to practice new responses and reduce distress. For trauma-related problems she offers approaches designed for processing traumatic memories and reducing reactivity.
Dr. Yamokoski has clinical and research experience with survivors of serious trauma, including first responders, combat-related events, accidents, and sexual assault. She works with people affected by natural or human-caused disasters, dissociation, domestic violence, and issues like panic, OCD, and prolonged grief.
She describes her work as collaborative and practical. People can expect clear explanations of recommended methods and concrete steps to try between sessions. Before starting time-limited treatments she reviews options and engages in shared decision-making.

How CBT and Trauma-Focused Therapy are used online
Dr. Yamokoski uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. CBT sessions typically involve identifying patterns, practicing small behavioral experiments, and reviewing progress in follow-ups. Trauma-Focused Therapy focuses on processing distressing memories and reducing reactivity through structured, time-limited steps tailored to trauma-related symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She discusses the options and makes decisions collaboratively based on a person’s goals, symptoms, and preferences. Together they choose whether a time-limited protocol or a different plan is the best fit and adjust the plan as needed.
