Cynthia Alcivar is a clinical psychologist with a strong academic background and extensive experience in mental health. She holds a Bachelor's degree in Clinical Psychology from Universidad San Francisco de Quito (USFQ) in Ecuador and a Master’s in Affective Disorders from King’s College London (KCL) in the UK.Throughout her career, Cynthia has worked with individuals facing a wide range of emotional challenges, helping them achieve balance and well-being through an integrative therapeutic approach. She has provided therapy in diverse settings, offering both in-person and online sessions to accommodate each patient’s unique needs while ensuring a safe and confidential space.Her approach integrates three evidence-based therapeutic modalities:Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Cynthia helps patients recognize and modify negative thought patterns and maladaptive behaviors. This method is particularly effective in treating anxiety, depression, and mood disorders.Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): She utilizes DBT to support individuals dealing with intense emotions, including those diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). This approach focuses on emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal relationships.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Cynthia guides patients toward accepting their thoughts and emotions instead of resisting them. ACT promotes a values-based approach to life and is particularly effective for stress management, anxiety, and self-compassion.By combining these therapeutic techniques, Cynthia equips her patients with practical skills to manage emotions and behaviors more effectively, helping them live in alignment with their personal values and goals.

I came across this clinic by chance while searching for a psychologist, and I’m so glad I decided to give it a try. From the start, the team was helpful and quickly recommended a doctor for me. Although she is the first psychologist I’ve ever worked with, my experience has been overwhelmingly positive. She has made me feel comfortable, supported, and truly heard throughout our sessions. In fact, I’ve already recommended her to a friend. I’m genuinely grateful she was the one assigned to me—it's been a meaningful step forward in my journey.
I highly recommend OpenMinds Clinic for their exceptional professionalism and organization. They’ve consistently kept me updated with my appointments, ensuring I never missed a single one—a level of care that speaks volumes about their dedication. A big kudos to the entire Team OpenMinds! I’m especially grateful for my therapist, whose insightful guidance and empathetic approach have had a profoundly positive impact on my life. Her support has been invaluable, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better therapist.
Even though I’ve only had a few sessions so far, I already feel that I’ve made meaningful progress, all thanks to her professionalism, insight, and supportive approach. Her guidance has truly sparked positive changes in my life. In addition, the OpenMinds staff have been fantastic—always hands-on with scheduling and incredibly friendly. They bring a light and welcoming energy to each visit, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. I’m truly grateful to be on this journey with such a dedicated and uplifting team.
