About Cynthia
Cynthia Crockett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in the District of Columbia with ten years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, family matters, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, anger, career concerns, depression, and coping with life changes. She also lists coaching and several focused areas such as blended family issues and attachment concerns.
Crockett looks at clients' strengths and at what may be keeping them stuck. She respects whether a person wants faith integrated into sessions or prefers not to include religion. When faith is part of the work she may use a biblical and strength-based approach alongside counseling and coaching methods.
She offers practical tools aimed at changing patterns. That can mean working on communication, setting boundaries, managing anger, or addressing family-of-origin influences. She also uses strategies to improve sleep and reduce anxiety through behavior-focused steps.
For people considering relationship work, she uses approaches that explore connection and communication. Premarital assessments are available online for couples to complete independently; these take about 30 minutes.
Crockett mentions an additional method called Aroma Freedom and may offer essential therapeutic oils to address emotional blocks if a client is interested. She runs a Friday evening discussion group for Christian singles and is willing to include prayer in sessions when requested. Sessions can be scheduled in evenings and on weekends.
How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape reactions in close relationships. It helps people understand trust, closeness, and patterns that repeat in new partnerships and blended households.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It offers concrete tools for anxiety, sleep issues, anger, and low mood by changing unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors.
Imago Relationship Therapy concentrates on improving communication and seeing how each partner’s past shapes current conflict. It can be useful for rebuilding connection and for learning new ways to talk about sensitive topics.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then recommend one or a mix of methods. That decision is collaborative and may change as progress is made.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific online methods. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Ask about scheduling options such as evening or weekend appointments to match everyday routines.
