About Our Counseling Center
Why Choose Insight Into Action Therapy?
Frankly, because expertise matters. Our founders Cyndi Turner, LCSW, LSATP, MAC and Craig James, LCSW, LSATP, MAC are nationally recognized experts in the field with over 60 years of combined experience. Cyndi has written books and they provided workshops that have trained clinicians across the country. Cyndi and Craig cultivated a talented team of clinicians that provide the highest level of care.
More importantly, we’re local. We may train other therapists throughout the country, but we’re your neighbors. Many therapy practices and programs in the area are owned by corporations who are not rooted in the community. By contrast, over a decade ago Craig and Cyndi put their Loudoun County homes up as collateral to start Insight Into Action Therapy. In 2022, Insight was named Loudoun County Chamber of Commerce Small Business as well as Mental Health and Wellness business of the Year as we proudly help thousands in our community.
When you walk into the waiting room at Insight, expect to hear us laughing and teasing each other. But when the office door shuts, we get down to the business of helping you close the gap between the life you have and the life you want.
It’s our great joy to serve you.

Celebrating 10 Years of Insight
Customized therapy for busy lives
In the Northern Virginia and DC metro area, life is crowded with pressure, expectations, and responsibilities. Mental health and substance use symptoms do not show up in clean categories. Anxiety bleeds into sleep. Work stress shows up in your relationships. A quiet reliance on substances stops being quiet.
Insight Into Action Therapy exists for that reality. You’ll be seen as an individual, not a diagnosis. You and your therapist will go past surface-level symptoms to uncover root causes. From there, we will customize treatment to address your specific needs and wants.
One counseling practice for the full picture
Clients come to us for a wide range of concerns:
- Anxiety, depression, OCD, and mood instability
- Trauma and post-traumatic stress
- Relationship and marriage strain
- Work stress, burnout, and professional pressure
- Substance use that is starting to interfere instead of help
- Sex, love, pornography or gambling addiction and compulsive sexual behavior
- Neurodivergent adults and teens with co-occurring mental health conditions
- Adolescents and adults with both substance use and mental health symptoms
Under one roof, you have access to psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists, and testing services that work together coordinating medication management, psychotherapy, and psychological testing and more so your treatment plan is aligned.
Therapy with a clear purpose
You are not here to talk in circles. We help turn your insights into action.
Therapy sessions focus on:
- Clarifying what is happening, not only what feels urgent right now
- Connecting symptoms to patterns in behavior, relationships, and stress
- Setting specific, realistic goals for how you want to feel and function
- Using evidence-based approaches to shift thoughts, habits, and reactions
- Measuring progress and adjusting the plan as needed
The goal is to bring our clients noticeable relief and a way of living that feels more sustainable. Therapy is structured and goal driven so you are not in treatment without direction.
