Amazing therapist! I was diagnosed with my mental illnesses as a teenager, now I'm in my 30s. The number of therapists I've had over the years has been, well, let's just say a vast selection. Cassie Maxwell is one of only three of all of those therapists over all those years that I consider to be excellent and truly helpful. It was a struggle, and I almost gave up on finding a good therapist, but I am glad I tried one last time because I finally did find one. I definitely recommend her.

Hi, my name is Cassie Maxwell (she/her/hers), and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 10 years experience providing creative, client-centered, and strength-based therapy services here in Louisiana. I first want to recognize how big of an accomplishment it is to take your first step in finding someone to speak to. I hope after reading more about myself and my practice, we can take the next steps together in your journey toward reaching your personal goals.
I have experience working with folks from culturally diverse backgrounds, and I am passionate about creating a safe space for my clients to share their stories. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I have personal as well as clinical experience in helping folks navigate LGBTQ+ related issues. It is my priority to provide non-judgemental, multi-cultural, and trauma-informed treatment for those who are navigating a road that is more difficult than what many others experience.
I also have experience working with clients to manage a wide variety of mental health and behavioral health diagnoses, including but not limited to Depression, Anxiety, Anger Management, Grief and Loss, ADHD, PTSD, and Bipolar. If you do not resonate with one of these I have listed, reach out to me and we can discuss if I would be the best therapist for you. I am here to help.
If you decide to work with me, you can choose to have Video sessions, Phone sessions, and/or Live Chat sessions. I’m looking forward to the opportunity to speak with you and help you during what may be a difficult time in your life. Thank you!

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Great therapist!!
Very easy to talk to and understanding.
Cassie ushered me through one of the most difficult times of my life and I cannot thank her enough.
She is doing a great job! She’s very good at taking note of the things that I’m trying to focus on in therapy and tuned in to issues and topics that are sensitive for me.
I think Cassie is great. This was my first time trying therapy and I just don’t feel like it’s for me. I have a large support group and just feel more comfortable talking to family and/or friends
Cassie has been amazing since our first session. No complaints whatsoever. She does an exception job.
Cassie is compassionate and present throughout our sessions. She truly has changed my life for the better by listening to me. I cannot recommend her enough.
Very attentive and supportive
I’m still relatively new to therapy, and Cassie made my transition back into it so comfortable. She’s been companionate, understanding, and extremely helpful. I don’t think there could have been a better match for me.
