About Cynthia
Cynthia Crockett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in the District of Columbia with 10 years of experience. She helps people handle stress, anxiety, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and struggles with self-esteem and life changes. Cynthia also addresses family-related challenges, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, anger, career questions, and mood concerns.
She uses a strengths-focused approach that looks for what is working while identifying what keeps someone stuck. Faith can be part of the conversation when a client wants that, and faith is not required for work to move forward. She also offers coaching-style support for people wanting clearer goals and practical steps.
Cynthia draws on methods such as attachment-based work, cognitive behavioral ideas, Imago relationship concepts, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques. These are used in straightforward ways to look at patterns, try small experiments, and shift how people relate to others and themselves. Sessions often focus on skills that can be practiced between meetings.
She mentions some additional supports she offers, including an aroma-related approach used with permission to address emotional barriers. Cynthia provides online premarital assessments that take about 30 minutes and are completed independently when relevant. She can include faith-based discussion or prayer when requested by a client.
People who feel isolated or want more practical support around relationships and family matters may find her style useful. To begin, the site matching process is used to schedule an initial session and confirm current online session options.
How sessions work
How Cynthia's approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work focuses on how early and current relationships shape expectations and reactions. Online sessions using this approach look at patterns in relationships and help people try different ways of connecting and responding to others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks down thoughts, feelings, and actions into manageable parts. In remote sessions CBT is used to identify unhelpful thinking, test new behaviors, and practice small experiments between meetings to reduce anxiety and low mood.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Cynthia will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust the plan as needed. That discussion helps decide whether attachment work, CBT, Imago ideas, or solution-focused strategies make the most sense for the issue at hand.
The biography mentions online premarital assessments and other online offerings, but it does not list all available session formats. Confirm the current online session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so work or family responsibilities are easier to manage.
