About Cassandra
Cassandra Hemphill helps people who are stressed, anxious, grieving, or feeling stuck. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor who brings 17 years of experience to sessions. Her approach aims to make therapy feel practical and understandable for people looking for change.
Cassandra draws on straightforward conversation and active listening to learn what matters most to each person. She uses client-centered work to follow a person’s pace and priorities. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of responding.
Background and approach
Her background includes work in mental health treatment centers, non-profit organizations, and school settings. That variety shaped how she supports people facing trauma, mood concerns, panic, and self-esteem struggles. She also has experience related to adoption and foster care, attachment issues, and domestic violence in practice settings.
In sessions she often blends narrative approaches with mindfulness skills to help people tell their story in clearer ways and practice calmer responses in the moment. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used when people need tools for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, or stronger interpersonal boundaries. Cassandra works with adults in Texas and conducts sessions in English.
She aims to make the first steps simple and actionable so people can try a session and see whether the approach fits their needs.
How her approaches work online
Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on spotting thoughts and behaviors that increase stress or anxiety, and then testing practical changes to feel better. It is useful for panic, mood concerns, and everyday worry.Client-centered therapy centers the session around what the person brings. The therapist listens deeply, reflects what she hears, and lets the person guide goals and pace. This approach helps when someone needs space to make sense of their experiences and priorities.
Dialectical behavior therapy provides concrete skills for managing strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving communication. These skills can be practiced during sessions and applied between meetings to handle moments of crisis or overwhelm.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Cassandra will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their concerns, goals, and comfort with different tools. That way the plan can be adjusted as progress is made.
Online therapy with her uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy lives. Video is useful for full conversations and skill coaching, phone calls work when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, school, or caregiving.
