About Cassandra
Cassandra Aamodt is a CT LCSW with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addictions, and anger. Cassandra also supports people navigating relationship and parenting concerns and those coping with major life changes.
She uses straightforward, practical conversation in sessions. Cassandra often draws on client-centered work to follow what matters most to the person in front of her. She pairs that with cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and DBT skills to manage strong emotions.
Sessions include calm, direct feedback and concrete tools to try between meetings. Mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing show up when they help a client clarify goals or stay motivated to change. Cassandra aims to help people notice patterns and take small steps that feel doable in daily life.
Cassandra's background includes experience with trauma, LGBTQ concerns, substance use, and caregiver stress. She has supported people through grief, adoption and foster care questions, attachment issues, and challenges tied to family of origin or blended family dynamics.
She offers services in English and practices in Connecticut. The profile notes a subscription-based session model that can be canceled at any time, and readers are asked to use the platform matching questionnaire to schedule an initial session.

How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the client. In online sessions this means the therapist centers the conversation on the client's goals and reflections, and adjusts pace and focus based on that input.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches ways to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Online CBT often includes brief exercises, thought records, and homework that fit into daily routines to address issues like anxiety, anger, or low mood.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for handling intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Delivered online, DBT skills practice can be paired with step-by-step coaching and short check-ins to reinforce new coping tools.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cassandra will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to use based on their goals, preferences, and what feels workable in their life. That decision is reviewed as therapy progresses to keep things useful and realistic.
Session format details should be confirmed before booking. The profile notes a subscription-based payment model that can be canceled at any time. If you need sessions to fit around work or caregiving, mention that when you book so practical arrangements can be discussed, such as shorter check-ins or options that reduce bandwidth and camera use where helpful.
