Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Cassandra uses a client-centered approach that focuses on understanding each person's unique experience and priorities. This method emphasizes empathy and collaboration so clients feel heard and involved in shaping their goals and treatment. It works well for people seeking a supportive space to explore feelings and life transitions.
She also incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and develop practical strategies for managing symptoms like anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT is useful for clients who want structured tools they can apply between sessions. When appropriate, elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy - DBT are used to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions and relationship challenges.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Cassandra collaborates with each person to tailor techniques based on their needs, goals, and preferences so the plan feels like a good fit. Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to access care around work, family, and other commitments. These options support consistent engagement and allow clients to choose the format that best suits their comfort and circumstances.
