About Cynthia
Cynthia Crockett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on practical ways to help people change what isn’t working in their lives. She centers conversations on strengths and on the patterns that keep someone stuck. Cynthia mentions faith when clients want to include it, and she keeps sessions secular when they prefer that route.
She draws on approaches that aim to repair relationships and reduce overwhelm. That includes work on attachment patterns, communication problems, and relationship concerns like intimacy and commitment. Cynthia also addresses stress, anxiety, grief, depression, anger, career questions, and sleeping difficulties.
Cynthia offers faith-informed options when requested, using a biblical and strength-based perspective for clients who want that focus. She also uses essential therapeutic oils as an optional tool for emotional barriers for people interested in that method. These are available alongside talk-based strategies rather than replacing them.
She provides targeted help around dating boundaries and offers a short online premarital assessment that individuals complete independently in about 30 minutes. Cynthia runs a free Christian singles discussion group on Friday evenings and is open to praying with clients when invited.
Her practice emphasizes practical coaching and support to reduce isolation and build a personal support team. She has around 10 years of counseling experience and works from the District of Columbia. Sessions, scheduling options, and any evening or weekend slots are arranged directly through the initial intake and scheduling process.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current connections. Online sessions using this approach look at how you relate to others and aim to change interaction habits that cause stress or isolation.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In remote sessions CBT is used to set small, practical experiments and track progress between meetings, which can help with anxiety, low mood, and sleep problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to a person's goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made or priorities change.
Confirm the current session options before booking, since the biography mentions an online premarital assessment but does not list all formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people maintain continuity of care if they move within the same region. Licensed professionals tailor the session rhythm and homework to fit everyday life.
