Utilizing CBT, Emotion-Focused Therapy approaches allows you, the client to have total control over the coarse of treatment.
I'm Cassie (she/they), and I would describe myself as a nurturer who strives to create a therapeutic space in which children, adolescents, and adults can feel safe and seen. I am trained in Art Therapy, as well as Play Therapy (yes, online works too!). I believe the capacity to heal is within us already, and the therapeutic relationship can reminds us of our own strength.

I use a multifaceted Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapeutic approach influenced by Gestalt, ACT, and CBT interventions to tailor each session to my client's individual needs.
Just as you would gather tools, skills, and a plan before going into the unknown wilderness so should you before exploring your own internal wilderness. The desire to discover our internal parts and heal from trauma, overcome daily obstacles, reconnect with passion and purpose, and uncover hidden strengths can be as daunting as it is exciting. But where to begin? Together we can safely navigate and face any issue instead of avoiding, ignoring, or numbing them. Through multifaceted compassionate and direct therapy we’ll develop the tools, skills, and internal map to connect you to your true self and help you live more authentically.

So why not keep Googling for another therapist? Well not only do I have my own personal (and oh-so-fun) relationship with ADHD, but I have the expertise to offer ADHD Diagnostics, CBT Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy and…well just take a hot minute and skim my website to get more of the deets.
Therapy for the misunderstood, neurodivergent, neuro-spicy, ADHD adult humans out there: It’s an everyday occurrence involving being zoned out, scattered, overwhelmed, and all over the place. You feel like you’re regularly failing at “normal”, don’t feel good enough, and are convinced you suck at adulting. As you're racing around trying to find your keys and getting ready for the day, you give the dog your cereal and pour her cup of food in your bowl instead. Ugh. And on a more serious note - this shit is seriously impacting your work, your relationships and your quality of life.

I utilize evidence-based therapies, such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness.
Teaching you how to rise and flow on the journey of parenthood is my passion. I help you learn tools to support yourself so that parenting feels connected and joyful. My own entry into motherhood was a journey in itself—miscarriage, medical complications and postpartum anxiety. It was this experience that inspired me to work with others on their journey of parenthood. I'll work with you to manage challenges, build greater awareness of thoughts and feelings and improve balance in your life. I love to take an individualized approach to therapy based on your needs, and I see myself as a guide along a journey where you are the expert.

I was extensively trained in third-wave CBT-based therapies at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center, and have ample experience in utilizing CBT treatments for depression, anxiety, PTSD, BPD, and substance use.
I often wish I could change my professional moniker from “psychotherapist” to “life enhancer,” because that is truly what I do. I want to help you cultivate self-compassion and acceptance for who you are and where you are at in your life, while at the same time encouraging you to evaluate and change what is not productive. My style can be described as “radically genuine” – I communicate authentically, compassionately and openly. You won’t ever hear that space cadet therapist-y voice coming from me, but you will definitely hear an f-bomb or two.

I am skilled in cognitive behavior therapy, and can help you use "thinking" to sort through your feelings and change behaviors.
I work with children, adolescents and adults who are primarily dealing with anxiety, depression and relationship issues. Emotional health is as important as physical health. We work together to understand how to accomplish change. I work in medical and mental health settings with the belief that integrating feelings with appropriate behavior creates a more peaceful existence.

My practice incorporates the body, mind and spirit through talk therapy, Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), somatic trauma release, mindfulness based tools, CBT & conscious breathwork.
If you have experienced trauma in your life and are at a place where most other talk therapies have not helped you. There's hope. Trauma is not an intellectual experience. It's a full body experience. That's why you aren't "getting better" with the mental exercise of regular talk therapy. While it helps to understand your trauma, it will continue to be experienced in the body and the nervous system as physical symptoms. Recovery from trauma is full body, as well as a heart and mind experience.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists
How does cognitive behavioral therapy work?
Cognitive behavioral therapy works by exploring how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. CBT helps you identify distortions in your thinking. For example, you may tend to jump to the worst case scenario catastrophizing or think in extremes (all-or-nothing thinking). A therapist can teach you how to push back against those thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behavior for the better. They can also provide coping skills to better deal with stressors and challenges.
When do I know to seek treatment with cognitive behavioral therapy?
It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioral therapy if you struggle to manage difficult emotions or behaviors to such an extent that you are not getting the most out of life on a day-to-day basis. If you want a shorter term, concrete, skills-based approach, CBT is a great option. (By contrast, other types of therapy may devote more time to exploring your past and its effects.) The decision to seek CBT also depends on the condition you’re treating; CBT is an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many other disorders.
How can I find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else?
To find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioral therapy, and assessing whether the approach is the right fit. You could then reach out to a few cognitive behavioral therapists in this directory, explain the scenario, have a consultation with those available, and determine who could be a good match.
Why is CBT such a popular form of therapy?
CBT has become a popular form of therapy because it is effective and accessible. Robust research has demonstrated that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions. And CBT can be learned in relatively few sessions, which means that many people can engage in the process, afford it, and see results quickly. It involves learning concrete skills such as disputing unhelpful thoughts; these skills can also be taught and spread widely.
