About Cynthia

Cynthia Crockett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who blends practical tools with a strengths-focused outlook. She helps people identify what keeps them stuck and build steps toward clearer choices. Cynthia offers a space where faith can be part of sessions when a client wants that, and where it won’t be if they prefer a different focus.

She uses a mix of approaches to match the issue at hand. That can include work on attachment patterns to improve closeness, cognitive-behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and solution-focused steps to move past a specific problem. Motivational interviewing is used to uncover personal goals and build the will to change.

Cynthia’s practice includes concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, sleep problems, anger, career questions, and coping with life changes. She also lists aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, blended family and family of origin matters, isolation and midlife concerns among her focus areas.

She brings about 10 years of counseling experience and holds the LPC credential. Her work often combines coaching elements and faith-informed conversation when clients wish to include spirituality. Cynthia mentions use of aroma-based techniques for clients who are interested in that adjunctive option.

Sessions and scheduling details vary by location and availability. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats and times before booking.

How Cynthia’s Approaches Work Online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in how people connect and respond to others. Online work using attachment ideas helps clients spot repeated relationship habits and try new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them, which translates well to remote sessions through structured exercises and homework.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Cynthia will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide whether attachment work, CBT, or a solution-focused plan is the better fit and adjust as needed over time.

Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online help easier to fit into busy days, since sessions can reduce travel time and let someone use a short break for a check-in. Online work can also make it simpler to follow through on homework, try new communication skills between meetings, or maintain continuity when schedules change. Licensed professionals adapt exercises and tools for remote conversation so progress can continue outside the office.
