(she/her)
Hello, I’m Kasandra! Have you been having trouble feeling like yourself? Let me put you at ease, you’re not alone. Mental health struggles can be a daily obstacle for many, whether it be a lifelong difficulty or a recent situational circumstance that causes hardship. Please know that seeking help doesn’t have to be a stunt in growth, but can be the water that you need to grow! I am a licensed clinician with over 6 years of experience skilled in helping adults, adolescents and families manage trauma, anxiety, and life transitions. My aim is to customize therapy with a focus to provide support and education, which can assist in developing insight and acquire healthy skills. Empowerment and identifying inner strengths to live a happy and fulfilling life is a key goal.
It takes a great amount of courage and determination to get this far in seeking help. Our first session I will assure a safe space in which you will be able to guide me through at your own pace what you feel comfortable sharing.
My biggest strength lies in my ability to listen and provide solutions in a objective way. The goal is to always provide a judge free environment to assist my clients in empowering themselves in the best way.
As a clinician that has worked with ages ranging from adolescent to adulthood, it is a focus of mine to assist all age groups to achieve optimal mental health in their lives.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have found that using Cognitive Behavior Therapy has proven effective in my last 8 years of experience. I have assisted dozens of clients identify and recognize thoughts, feelings and behaviors that influence one another. By helping you pin point thinking patterns it then can assist in changing the behavior that comes after.
Strength-Based
I approach my treatment methods through a tailored approach and utilize a strengths-based perspective. A key aim with the approach I have implemented within my session is to gear clients with empowerment and validation.
