About Cassandra

Cassandra Hemphill is an LPC with 17 years of counseling experience based in Texas. She focuses on helping people who are overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and relationship strain. Parents and caregivers concerned about adoption and foster care matters will find her familiar with those challenges. Her tone is practical and down-to-earth, aiming to make therapy feel manageable from the first session.

Cassandra uses straightforward, people-focused methods in sessions. She draws on client-centered work to follow what matters most to each person. Cognitive behavioral tools help break unhelpful patterns, and dialectical behavior ideas offer skills for strong emotions. Mindfulness and narrative approaches help people reconnect with their story and notice what they need right now.

Her background includes work in mental health treatment centers, nonprofit programs, and middle and high school settings. She has experience with children and teens in the foster care system and with parents navigating family problems. That mix of settings has shaped a flexible style that adapts to different life situations.

Sessions tend to be practical and focused on real-life changes. Cassandra helps people build coping tools, improve communication, and process losses or traumatic events at a pace they can handle. She also addresses issues like abandonment, attachment struggles, body image, shame, and anger.

People who want clear steps and a supportive listener may find her approach helpful. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire to match with a therapist and then schedule a session according to availability.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following what the client says matters. Online sessions let the therapist and client focus on the person’s priorities and set the pace for each meeting.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. In an online session this can mean working on practical exercises, tracking patterns between meetings, and using short worksheets or skill-building tasks together.

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) brings concrete skills for handling strong emotions and improving relationships. Online work can include practicing breathing and grounding skills, learning emotion regulation steps, and rehearsing communication strategies with the therapist's guidance.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help the client choose or combine methods based on goals, needs, and what feels most useful. Sessions are collaborative and adjusted over time to fit progress and preferences.

Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as this profile does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist during the matching process to decide how to structure sessions so they work with daily life.
