Psychiatrist Austin - Cynthia Benton MD

“I started seeing Dr. Benton eight years ago when I first moved to Austin. She has been awesome to work with. She really listens to me and makes sure to follow-up on all areas of my life when we have appointments. She is compassionate and responds quickly to requests or messages. I'm moving to Washington so unfortunately have to look for a new provider, but wanted to leave a good word for anyone out there looking for a quality psych provider who genuinely cares and is reliable.”

“Dr. Benton is truly fantastic and has helped me tremendously! I have been seeing her for 2 years now. She is excellent! She is very easy to talk to, extremely knowledgeable, and very compassionate. I highly recommend her to anyone!”

“I have been seeing Dr. Benton for over 5 years. She is professional and empathetic. She quickly put me at ease on my first appointment because of her patience and helping me express my thoughts. Dr. Benton gives me high-quality actionable responses to situations/issues. When feeling helpless, her guidance gives me confidence and reassurance. There have been a couple of times I have needed to reschedule due to medical or family emergencies to which she is understanding and does not charge a fee like so many other medical professionals. It is correct that Dr. Benton does not take insurance however she does quickly provide receipts for insurance reimbursements. I searched a long time for a mental health provider based on reviews and calling their offices. Based on response time, friendliness of office staff, and great reviews, I have never regretted choosing Dr. Benton. I trust Dr. Benton which is key to success throughout my journey. I highly recommend Dr. Benton!”

“For over a year, I drove 3 hours (one way) for appointments just to see Dr. Benton. She has helped me in understanding myself which has strengthened me as a person, as a woman, and as a mother. Dr. Benton is kind, compassionate, knowledgeable, empowering, and is attentive to your individual needs and concerns. She is a steady constant in a sea of unpredictable change. Dr. Benton is a true healer in the sense that she doesn't fix you. She quietly guides the way as you learn to heal yourself. (On top of all of that, her office is warm and inviting. She is punctual and always quick to respond to messages/emails.)”
