Wisconsin Physicians Service (WPS) Health Solution Therapists in Waunakee, WI
I’m Cassie—mom, wife, clinician, and small business owner. I came into this work because I saw too many people silently struggling—feeling alone, overwhelmed, and weighed down by unrealistic expectations.
I focus on helping individuals who struggle with emotional regulation—learning how to recognize and understand big feelings, and develop healthier ways to cope.
Over time, I've noticed a common thread across all ages and stages: many people were
never taught how to understand or regulate their emotions.
The same overwhelm that shows up in women during life transitions often appears in children anxiety, shutdown, or outbursts.

Many of the individuals I work with feel overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about their relationships or life direction. They may struggle with anxiety, depression, difficult relationships or family dynamics, chronic stress, or PTSD. As a Clinical Social Worker, I help adults move toward greater health, balance, and a stronger sense of self. I have a particular interest in helping people gain clarity about their relationships—whether romantic, family, or work-related—and exploring whether those relationships have the capacity to grow into a healthier place and what changes may be needed to support that growth.

Many of the individuals I work with come in feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward and together. This is why I try to create a space where people can feel understood, supported, and empowered to make meaningful changes. I work with children, teens, and adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, emotional overwhelm, and difficulties with focus or executive functioning. I also work closely with parents, helping them feel more confident in supporting their child outside of the therapy room.

Do you depend on psychiatric meds, caffeine, sugar, or alcohol just to get through the day? Has anxiety, insomnia, stress, fatigue, and low mood become your baseline while juggling work, marriage, and raising kids? You’re stuck in self-judgment, comparison, and exhaustion. You’ve tried therapy, medication and are starting to believe you are the mental health labels providers have placed on you. Consider this: you do not have a mental illness or a chemical imbalance and your brain is not broken. It may be your lifestyle, nervous system, and being gaslit by Western medicine that's keeping you stuck.

You may understand yourself better than most people do, and still find yourself caught in the same patterns.

I work with people who are ready to go beneath the surface, exploring the relational and developmental roots of what's driving the pattern, not just managing symptoms. If you've spent a long time trying to figure yourself out and still feel stuck, I'd be glad to talk.

I work with adults in acute distress as well as those with persisting difficulties that interfere with effective functioning and the full enjoyment of adult life.

I work best with thoughtful, self-aware adults who feel emotionally stuck despite functioning well outwardly. Many struggle with anxiety, trauma, overthinking, burnout, emotional disconnection, relationship stress, identity exploration, or difficulty quieting their mind. Some feel exhausted from constantly “holding it together” or relying on logic while feeling disconnected from themselves emotionally. My approach integrates trauma-informed therapy, mindfulness, somatic awareness, Brainspotting, and KAP integration to help clients move beyond survival patterns and reconnect with themselves more authentically.
