About Insight Into Action Therapy
Insight Into Action Therapy is a private outpatient counseling and addiction-treatment practice located at 44340 Premier Plaza, Suite 230 in Ashburn, Virginia. Co-founded by Craig James, LCSW, LSATP, MAC and Cyndi Turner, LCSW, LSATP, MAC, the practice has built a reputation in the Northern Virginia and D.C. metro region for clinically rigorous, individualized care that moves people from insight to durable behavior change.
Services span the substance use and mental health spectrum. The team offers substance use disorder evaluations, alcohol assessments, psychiatric evaluations and medication management, medication-assisted treatment (MAT/MOUD), harm reduction therapy, and virtual therapy. Clinicians work with adults, teens, children, couples, and court-involved clients on substance abuse, alcohol use, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, OCD, trauma, gambling and other addictive behaviors, autism spectrum needs, and relational stress.
A distinguishing feature is the practice’s commitment to alcohol moderation as a legitimate clinical goal. Rather than defaulting to abstinence for every client, Insight uses research-informed harm reduction frameworks to match treatment intensity to severity, safety, and personal goals. Coordinated therapy, medication, and psychiatric services live under one roof so care stays organized rather than fragmented.
The practice serves court-ordered clients and offers flexible scheduling for high-demand professional routines. Most clients pay through private insurance or self-pay, and services are delivered in English with German also available. Insight emphasizes outcome-focused treatment planning over open-ended therapy, aiming for meaningful progress that shows up in daily functioning, decision making, and relationships.
