Cynthia Crockett, LPC

Cynthia Crockett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who centers therapy on practical strategies and personal strengths. She uses clear, direct techniques to help people manage anxiety, stress, low mood, and relationship struggles. Cynthia speaks plainly in sessions and adapts to each person’s pace and goals.

She blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with attachment-focused work to address how thoughts and early bonds affect current relationships. That mix helps people reduce upsetting thinking patterns, improve emotional responses, and build more satisfying connections with others. She also uses solution-focused and motivational ideas to set short-term goals and track progress.

Cynthia has ten years of counseling experience and works with adults on issues such as grief, intimacy-related concerns, sleeping problems, anger, career stress, and life transitions. She also supports people facing caregiver stress, blended family tension, family of origin issues, and midlife changes. Her approach often includes exploring values and practical next steps.

Faith can be part of sessions when clients want it. Cynthia may incorporate a biblical, strength-based perspective and offers faith-centered conversation and optional prayer when requested. She also uses aroma-based techniques for clients interested in that option.

She provides therapy from the District of Columbia and offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. People who want to begin can complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions to suit their needs.

How these approaches work online

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. Online CBT sessions typically include short skills practice, homework between sessions, and clear steps to reduce anxiety or low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and emotional responses, and it helps people recognize repeating dynamics and try new interaction styles.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, history, and preferences and then try methods that fit. That collaborative process means techniques can shift over time as needs change and progress is tracked together.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people share thoughts between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and different routines.
