Cynthia Repanshek, LCP — Therapist in Virginia

Hi there, I'm Cynthia!

I work with adults and specialize in anxiety, stress, depression, and OCD. I see therapy as a collaborative process. I am not dedicated to a sole modality, and I would like to work with you to determine what type of therapy is the best fit.

My focus

I work with adults of all ages. I have treated a wide range of diagnoses, including adult ADHD, anxiety, depression, and OCD. I have had great success with young adults who are struggling with transitional issues, decision-making, and identity.

My approach

I tailor treatment using an eclectic approach from various modalities, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Person-Centered Therapy. I find that most people benefit from approaches that help them understand themselves better and change unhealthy thinking and behavioral habits.

My communication style

I believe that I am a good balance of validating and nonjudgmental, while also being challenging when needed.

My journey to mental healthcare

I aspired to become a research psychologist, which led me to an internship. After working in a group home, a therapist encouraged me to pursue counseling since residents responded well to my guidance. I then changed my focus to clinical psychology. I believe most people can be who they want to be.

My goals for you

Therapy should be collaborative, and your treatment plan is a living document. We will work together to establish realistic, defined goals and will alter your plan based on your needs and priorities.

Our first session

I want to understand your experiences and feelings. This may involve discussions about your recent thoughts, current life, history, and future goals. I think it is important to address trauma, but we will take this at your speed. I want you to feel our sessions are a safe space where you feel heard and supported.
