About Cynthia
Cynthia emphasizes a strengths-based approach that can include biblical perspectives for those who request it. She also uses tools like aroma techniques when clients are interested, describing these as a way to address emotional blocks. Sessions aim to help people improve relationships with themselves and others and to clarify next steps.
She works with individuals preparing for marriage and offers an online premarital assessment that takes about 30 minutes and is completed independently. Cynthia encourages building supportive connections and offers a Christian single's discussion group on Friday evenings for those who wish to join.
Her schedule includes evening and weekend appointments to fit different routines. She highlights practical steps such as setting boundaries in dating and creating a personal support network to counter isolation. Coaching-style conversations are used alongside counseling when helpful.
Cynthia brings ten years of counseling experience in the District of Columbia and keeps her work focused on clear goals. People who prefer faith-informed counseling can request prayer during sessions; others receive the same goal-focused support without faith content.

How her approaches fit into online work
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and testing small changes to ease symptoms like anxiety or low mood. It is practical and action-oriented, often including simple exercises between sessions.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns people form in relationships and how those patterns affect trust, intimacy, and feeling understood. It can help when relationship difficulties, commitment questions, or attachment issues are at the heart of the struggle.
Finding the right approach is part of the work and happens together. The therapist will talk with a client about goals and preferences and then try methods that match those needs. That collaborative process can include mixing coaching steps with therapeutic tools when appropriate.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, offer evening and weekend scheduling, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist during the matching process to choose approaches and a format that suit your schedule and goals.
