Welcome! I’m Cassie, a trauma-informed therapist dedicated to helping adults heal from past trauma, manage anxiety, and build resilience. My approach combines EMDR, somatic therapy, IFS-informed parts work, and DBT-informed skills to support your emotional growth and wellbeing. Whether you’re exploring your identity, navigating life transitions, or recovering from difficult experiences, therapy can provide a safe, affirming space to reconnect with your strengths and move toward a more empowered life.
