About Cassandra
Cassandra Aamodt is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) licensed in Connecticut with three years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, LGBT-related issues, grief, and substance use challenges. Cassandra also supports those managing parenting strain, career stress, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue.
She uses straightforward conversation and practical strategies in sessions. Cassandra draws on client-centered methods to follow each person’s lead. She also integrates cognitive behavioral and mindfulness tools to help people change unhelpful thoughts and build steady habits.
Her experience includes work with adoption and foster care matters, attachment concerns, blended family questions, caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, and separation or divorce issues. She also addresses aging and geriatric topics, fatherhood issues, gender dysphoria, and guilt or shame related to family of origin dynamics.
Sessions tend to be direct and focused on real-life changes. Cassandra may use motivational interviewing to help people resolve ambivalence about change. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are available when emotions feel overwhelming and concrete coping techniques are needed.
People can expect a plainspoken approach that emphasizes practical tools and steady support. To begin, visitors are asked to use the site’s matching steps and schedule an initial session so the therapist can learn about their goals.
BHow sessions work
How Cassandra uses evidence-based approaches in online work
Client-centered therapy starts by listening to what matters most to a person and shaping sessions around their priorities. It helps clarify goals and guides what strategies to try next.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them against everyday events. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it gives simple skills to change thinking and behavior.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) supplies short, practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving how people cope in tense moments. It is often used when emotional intensity makes daily life harder.
Choosing the right mix of approaches is collaborative. Cassandra will work with the client to identify the best fit based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That can mean starting with listening and then adding CBT, DBT skills, mindfulness practice, or motivational interviewing according to what helps most.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know whether video, phone, or text formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists can adjust session length or timing to match work and family schedules, helping therapy fit into everyday life rather than disrupt it.
