I sincerely believe that life needs witnessing. Especially when you are navigating grief and loss, life transitions, caregiving, adverse experiences, stress, trauma, chronic and terminal illnesses and anxiety. Without our permission, life invites these and other challenges and changes along with the storms that occur within and around us. As a result, you may notice that you feel helpless, ungrounded, fearful and struggle to find hope. These feelings can not only interfere with your daily life but the quality of it and the joy you seek to experience instead. As your therapist, we will walk together navigating the heaviness of life.

My passion is helping others find ways to navigate all that this ever-changing, fast-paced world can throw at us. For over 20 years I have worked with adults, adolescents, and their families through many different seasons of life. If you are having difficulty with what life currently looks and feels like; obstacles you don't feel you can overcome, I am happy to help. We will work together using your own personal strengths to find a way through.

Even though transitions are a part of all of our lives, they sometimes stir up old pain or are just too overwhelming to navigate without some help. You deserve the time and support to work through it and counseling can provide that for you. I believe in a person centered, interpersonal, cognitive behavioral and strengths based counseling approach. I have over 20 years of experience using these approaches working with individuals of all ages dealing with anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationship issues, chronic illnesses and transitions at all stages of life.

You’re trying your best, but life didn’t used to be this hard. Things aren’t going right. You notice it’s harder to be happy, to feel connected, or even to get out of bed in the morning. You’re tired of pretending to be okay; to be perfect. On the inside, you feel so sad, worried, and angry. You’ve pushed things down and ignored it, but you wonder how much longer you can do that. You’re used to fixing your problems on your own, but this time you can’t figure it out. You’re stuck. You want help; whether that's with OCD, burnout, adverse religious experiences, anxiety, trauma, faith & doubt, or life changes. You want to feel better!

Whether you're navigating loss, managing change, or searching for clarity and peace, you are not alone.
As a counselor, I believe in the healing power of being truly seen, heard, and accompanied. I approach each session from a person-centered lens, meaning you are the expert on your life. My role is to walk with you, offering space, reflection, and tools to help you move forward with greater self-awareness and hope.

I want to be there for you in the places that so often feel isolating. It's important to me that you have a place in the therapy relationship where you don't have to be 'fine.' My hope for our work together is that your distressing and overwhelming experiences can be connected to your life without fully overwhelming the rest of your life.

Hello! My name is Cassie. My pronouns are she-her. As a fat, neurodivergent, queer person, I know first hand how discrimination and fitting social “norms” can impact your mental and physical health. I want to be your ally and your advocate, wherever you feel you are being held back. I look at my role as being one part of your care team, but you are the leader of that team. You are the expert on YOU. There may be other providers or even family members who are part of your team too. My job is to meet you wherever you are today, and help you connect with the resources that let you move forward through this world.

I believe in a Strength-Based approach to therapy. My belief is to start with what is working (even if it is just a little bit) and build from there. I encourage the client to have an active voice in the treatment process and to be involved in their clinical goal setting. I find that CBT and somatic techniques are helpful with many clients and utilize a variety of skills and activities to help clients learn and use these techniques in their daily life.

Beginning therapy is a journey, often times it is difficult to begin that journey.

I work with clients ages 3 and older. My style is to fit your needs and your lifestyle.
I have years of experience working with children, having an early childhood development degree, and working in the daycare and school system before becoming a therapist.

I’m passionate about supporting children, adolescents, and adults as they navigate the impact of trauma and life’s challenges. My approach is grounded in the belief that healing happens in connection and that you are the expert in your own story.

Accepting new clients on Monday-Wednesday, in person or virtual. I believe that counseling should be a safe space where you can engage with vulnerability and self-reflection. A core tenant of my practice is that you are the expert of your own life. This is why I emphasize collaboration and self-determination throughout the counseling process and encourage you to explore your own values, strengths and goals in therapy. I am very passionate about helping my clients reach their personal goals.

My ideal clients are trauma survivors who feel stuck between understanding what happened and actually feeling better. Many have tried to “move on” or “get over it,” yet still feel impacted by past experiences in ways they can’t fully explain. They may feel disconnected from their bodies, emotions, or sense of self, struggle with anxiety, depression, or relationship patterns, and feel frustrated that the past keeps showing up in the present. What they want is relief, safety, and to feel like themselves again—more grounded, more present, and more in control of their lives.

I provide a structured, grounded therapeutic environment where clients can expect consistency, compassion, and clear guidance tailored to their unique goals. Sessions with me focus on creating safety, building insight at a comfortable pace, and identifying practical steps that support meaningful, sustainable change. You can count on me to be transparent, engaged, and fully committed to your growth. In return, I ask for openness, collaboration, and a willingness to explore new strategies both in and between sessions so we can drive measurable progress together.

Mend Counseling works with people who sense that something important has gone quiet in them. On the surface, life may look functional. Beneath it, there is often a feeling of being disconnected, guarded, or uncertain about where to go next. Some people have carried this for years without naming it. Others have tried to push through it. They come to Mend not just to feel better, but to understand themselves more honestly and to build a life that reflects who they actually are.

I’m Whitney, they/them, I'm trans, and I’m a therapist :)
I show up to therapy as a fellow human to get to know you and be part of your growth. My practice as a therapist has grown through the lens of Infant Mental Health which emphasizes the role of relationships and play in healing. Within a caring relationship we can find the strength to tell our story, feel our feelings, and connect to the parts of ourselves we’re afraid of. I particularly like working with queer people of all ages to help them love and care for the babies inside them.
