More about Cassandra

  • 11 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I enjoy working with people to overcome challenges, live more intentional lives and achieve their goals. I am especially well versed in helping people to work through women's issues, relationship problems, grief, stress and trauma. My ideal client is open to new ideas, and views health through a multifaceted lense, exploring the interconnection between physical, mental and spiritual health (understanding that spirituality may or may not include organized religion).

I am a therapist, yoga teacher and zumba instructor. My life is all about sharing health with people. I practice what I preach. I have studied mindfulness for many years in a variety of settings and pride myself on my ability to remain nonjudgmental. It is only when we are able to remain neutral that we can find clarity and solutions.

I would welcome the opportunity to walk along side you in your journey of personal growth. I commend you for having the wisdom to recognize that you are ready for change and the courage to reach out and get started.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Cassandra was amazing to work with. I came into therapy over four months ago really struggling with decades old trauma from childhood that had been impacting my life for a long time. She gave me such great care and compassion and was such a safe person for me to heal with. The tools, exercises and information she used in her work with me have been life changing. I highly recommend Cassandra as she is tops at her profession and is so good at what she does to give hope and a path forward to a better and more fulfilling life.

I don't really know how to begin this, but Cassandra helped me out so much. I came to her after losing a friend to suicide. She helped me find ways to grieve in healthy ways, and understand why I was feeling certain feelings. She also helped me connect with my inner emotions on how to deal with stress, anxiety, depression, and even how manage unfortunate events with family. Cassandra is not only a great listener, but active helper. I can't thank Cassandra enough for helping me through my grieving journey.
