About Cynthia
Cynthia Crockett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in the District of Columbia with ten years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, self-esteem problems, and mood difficulties. Sessions may include conversations about faith when desired by the client.
Her approach focuses on identifying strengths and on what keeps a person stuck. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside attachment-based ideas to look at thoughts, behaviors, and relationship patterns. She also draws on solution-focused and motivational interviewing techniques to set practical, short-term goals.
Clients who wish to integrate faith into counseling can do so; Cynthia uses a biblical and strength-based perspective when requested. She also offers coaching-style work around life purpose, career transitions, and coping with life changes.
Cynthia provides additional options for those interested in complementary methods. She is a Certified Aroma Freedom Practitioner and can offer essential oil–based tools as part of a session when appropriate and desired by the client.
She offers online premarital assessments for couples that take about 30 minutes and are completed independently. Group options include a Friday evening Christian Singles discussion session. Scheduling can include evenings and weekends to fit varied routines.
How cognitive and attachment work in online sessions
CBT focuses on spotting specific thoughts and routines that lead to distress and then trying new ways of responding. In practice this looks like identifying a thought, testing whether it fits the facts, and practicing an alternative behavior to see what changes. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections. It helps people notice patterns in closeness and distance and try new communication or boundary steps to change those patterns. Cynthia treats the choice of approach as collaborative. She will review goals and preferences with each person and then suggest a mix of CBT, attachment work, or solution-focused steps. The plan can change as progress is tracked and priorities shift. Confirm the session formats directly before booking because the biography does not list specific online formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a workday, to do short check-ins when schedules are tight, or to avoid travel time. Discussing practical needs upfront helps pick a session rhythm that fits everyday life.Areas of expertise
