Often rebooked
Hello! Congratulations on taking your first steps to bettering your mental health. My name is Cassandra (Cassie). I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (Michigan) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (IL) who has worked with a wide range of clients from young children to adults and families. I believe that each individual is unique and special; therefore, I prefer an eclectic and collaborative approach to counseling; developing the treatment plan to reflect your unique needs. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), Trauma Focused - Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Attachment Therapy and aspects of Theraplay. I often utilize strengths-based and person-centered methods.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session together, we will start with introductions and discussing policies and procedures. I will then perform a psychosocial interview which is to get to know you better and work on therapeutic rapport. This is a time to get to know one another better to determine therapeutic fit. My goal as a counselor is to provide you with a safe and compassionate space where you can find peace, healing, and hope. While this journey is yours, you do not have to face it alone.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
Having worked with individuals of various ages, backgrounds, races, cultures, and sexual orientations I am a well rounded counselor. I provide a safe and compassionate place to be able to begin the healing process.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I love working with teens and adults who are eager to overcome their mental health challenges. My clients are eager to improve their mental well-being and utilize the skills/tools provided.

Just from one session, Cassie has a very kind and safe aura that my nerves from the beginning washed away and feel very confident in her ability to help me accomplish my healing goals.
